Description
The TRENDnet TPE-TG80F 8-Port Gigabit Full Power PoE+ Switch provides a convenient solution for expanding network connectivity while supplying power to compatible Ethernet devices. Equipped with eight Gigabit PoE+ ports, this unmanaged switch delivers both data and electrical power through standard Ethernet cables, helping simplify installations and reduce the need for separate power outlets near connected devices.
With a total PoE power budget of 240W, the TPE-TG80F supplies up to 30W per port for IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at compatible devices. It is suitable for connecting IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and other network equipment that supports PoE or PoE+.
The switch features a 16Gbps switching capacity, a 192KB RAM buffer, and a 4K MAC address table to support efficient Gigabit Ethernet traffic. Jumbo frame support up to 9KB helps accommodate larger data packets in compatible network environments.
Designed for straightforward installation, the TPE-TG80F operates as an unmanaged switch with plug-and-play connectivity. Its fanless design provides silent operation, while the internal power supply and sturdy rackmountable metal housing make it suitable for office networks, surveillance installations, and business networking environments.
