8 Port Gigabit Unmanaged PoE Switch – Built for Reliable PoE+ Deployment
If you are setting up a small office network, adding IP cameras to a retail store, or expanding a warehouse monitoring system, this 8 port gigabit unmanaged PoE switch delivers what you need without unnecessary complexity. It comes with 8 IEEE802.3af/at PoE ports and 2 Gigabit uplink ports, offering a total PoE budget of 96W – enough to power multiple PTZ cameras or wireless access points simultaneously. The switch is truly unmanaged: plug in your devices, and it automatically detects whether a connected device requires PoE. Non-PoE gear like a regular PC or printer will not get damaged because the switch only powers devices that follow the standard PoE protocol. That saves you from costly mistakes during installation.
The metal case and internal power supply help with heat dissipation, so this 8 port gigabit unmanaged PoE switch can run 24/7 in a dusty closet or an outdoor surveillance cabinet without overheating. For environments where surge risks exist, you can opt for the version with 6KV common mode / 4KV differential mode surge protection. There is also an AI network self-healing (watchdog) option that automatically reboots a connected PD if it stops responding – a real time-saver for remote sites. With a 20Gbps non-blocking switching capacity and store-and-forward forwarding, you get full wire-speed performance even under heavy traffic. Whether you are powering eight 4MP IP cameras or six VoIP phones plus two access points, this switch keeps your network stable and your deployment simple.
- 8 PoE+ ports (25.4W per port, 96W total) – enough for demanding PDs
