Power seven PoE devices

ComNet Europe has expanded its Ethernet product line by introducing two eight-port unmanaged switches that provides six or seven 100TX Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports and one or two 10/100TX or 100FX combination ports. This switch is designed for use in harsh environmental applications. This device supports the latest IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) standard for use with Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) supplying up to 30 Watts.

This unmanaged switch can serve as an aggregation point for up to seven 10/100TX Ethernet devices while providing PoE to the peripheral devices. It also transports Ethernet data optically over multimode or single mode fibre, selected by optional SFP modules to a managed switch or other core network devices.

According to Steve Clarke, ComNet Europe MD, “We see this product used in applications where a number of PoE powered Ethernet devices, such as IP cameras, Ethernet access control and intrusion devices are in close proximity. The CNFE8USPOE was designed as a point where the output of up to 7 Ethernet devices can be aggregated and provide operating power for those devices.”
