Network switch TRENDnet TI-B541 Unmanaged 5-port Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) with PoE, black

TRENDnet TI-B541 is an unmanaged 5‑port Gigabit Ethernet switch with integrated Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionality. The compact black unit provides five RJ‑45 Gigabit ports (10/100/1000) with four PoE+ output ports and one PoE++ input port, a 2,000‑entry MAC address table and a 10 Gbit/s switching capacity. Designed for installations without a local AC power source, the switch can be powered via PoE++ input and offers a PoE power budget for connected devices. The hardened metal housing and extended operating temperature range make it suitable for a variety of small office, IP camera, VoIP and industrial scenarios.

Advantages

The TRENDnet TI-B541 combines full Gigabit throughput on all five RJ‑45 ports with Power over Ethernet capabilities, enabling data and power delivery over a single cable to compatible devices. As an unmanaged switch it requires no configuration and supports industry networking standards including IEEE 802.3af/at/bt for broad device compatibility. Its compact, wall- or DIN‑rail‑mountable metal enclosure and 10 Gbit/s switching capacity provide a reliable, low-maintenance network access point for edge deployments.

Suitable for

• Small office network access where simple, plug-and-play switching and PoE are needed
• IP camera installations that require PoE power and Gigabit connectivity
• VoIP handset deployments powered over Ethernet
• Wireless access point connections when centralized PoE power is available
• Industrial or remote edge locations where PoE-powered devices are preferred

How to use

Install the TRENDnet TI-B541 in a suitable location using the included DIN‑rail or wall mounts. Connect a PoE++ source (switch or injector) to the PoE++ input port to power the unit; no AC adapter is required when powered via PoE. Plug network devices into the remaining Gigabit RJ‑45 ports to provide both data and PoE power where supported. The switch operates in unmanaged mode and begins forwarding traffic automatically; full duplex transmission is supported on all ports.

Recommendations

Place the unit where ambient temperatures remain within the specified −40 °C to 75 °C range and ensure the PoE source can supply sufficient power for connected devices. For IP camera or access point deployments, verify device PoE class compatibility (802.3af/at/bt) and budget total power requirements to avoid overloading the switch's PoE budget.
