Network Switch PLANET UPOE-2400G Gigabit Ethernet Power over Ethernet

The PLANET UPOE-2400G is a rack-mountable Ultra PoE managed injector hub that upgrades existing Ethernet networks to an Ultra Power over Ethernet system without replacing the current switch. It provides 24 Gigabit data input ports and 24 Gigabit PoE output ports (48 RJ45 ports total) with a total PoE budget of 800 W, delivering up to 60 W per port over standard Cat5/5e/6 UTP cables and supporting IEEE 802.3at/af and 4-pair 60 W operation for higher-power devices.

Advantages

The UPOE-2400G centralizes power delivery and simplifies installation by combining data and power from a single unit, reducing the need for separate power cabling and dedicated electrical outlets. It offers managed PoE features through a web interface, real-time PD monitoring and automated recovery, PoE scheduling for energy saving, selectable 4-pair or 2-pair PoE output modes, and advanced power management including over-temperature protection and power usage monitoring.

Suitable for

• PoE PTZ speed dome cameras and surveillance systems
• Wireless access points and VoIP phones requiring PoE
• Thin clients, AIO touch PCs, POS terminals and kiosks
• Remote digital signage and displays

• Physical: rack-mountable, smart fan with automatic speed control

How to use

Install the UPOE-2400G between your existing Ethernet switch and powered devices. Connect the lower 24 RJ45 ports to the Ethernet switch as data inputs and connect the upper 24 RJ45 ports to PDs to provide both data and power. Configure PoE modes, schedules and monitoring via the built-in web management interface. Use the PD alive check and scheduled power recycling to maintain device availability and reduce manual intervention.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use standard Cat5e or Cat6 cables, ensure the total connected PD power does not exceed the 800 W budget, and set PoE schedules and priority allocation according to business hours and device criticality. Place the unit in a ventilated rack space to allow the smart fan to maintain safe operating temperature.
