Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Worked as advertised. The coloured ports make it really easy to explain. It does what it says on the tin.

It has a high output power port that is useful for ptz cameras and other power hungry poe+ devices. Comes with a switching power supply just like a laptop. Have 3 of these running poe cameras for the past 2 years.

For this poe switch is on stage connected to the expander port of my second ab168 unit. Bought this poe switch and connected my 5e cables. Bought a rj 45 tool and did my own plugs and plugged it.



Cons

Not suitable for one ptz ip camera with 60w poe requirement. Thought it was my cable and or possibly my ip cameras. Very unreliable and high failure rate.

At 250 meters and 13 watts - only 41 volts is delivered remotely - the spec is 44 volts. This means if you connect it to a laptop or printer on those ports - the ethernet jack will be at +47v - which isn't right.

Price


No need to drop 1800 on ah hub this works perfect for 35


Did exactly what i needed and at about 16 the price of what i had been looking at


Not bad for the money would get an extended warranty though


This is still a big speed jump for a low cost

Packaging/appearance


Packaging was very nice and easy to understand the setup


Not happy it came un packed in another box and flap was not taped and open


Item arrived in its own box not taped up and opened

Competitiveness


They work perfect and the price is less than most other poe switches


I have some similar b tech switches in outdoor enclosures for years now and they just keep going


This switch is currently pushing power and data over about 200 feet of cat5e to a different brand poe powered 2port switch with...  Read More

    One of the cameras is poe and that is working fine too

    Turn off the 34extend34 mode if you dont need it because it will limit your bandwidth to 10 mbps


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its a level 2 unmanaged switch so dont expect it to do anything except power devices and extend ethernet range


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is not a router so dont expect it to employ any kind of firewalls or other protection protocols it is data in data out


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It comes with a switching power supply just like a laptop 120vac in 53vdc out at 1


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It does not come with any kind of mounting hardware so be prepared to purchase separate brackets or do what i do in my commercial applications buy some aluminum stock from your local hardware store stick it in a vice and make your own mount
