Power-over-Ethernet Switches
Lantronix’s Power-over-Ethernet switches (PoE switches) deliver data packets and DC power over the same copper cable, making the deployment of VoIP phones, Wi-Fi access points, security cameras and other systems much simpler. The PoE switch standard calls for both power sourcing equipment (PSE) and power devices (PDs) to create a complete system. PoE switches are the leading type of PSE and are considered end-span PSE to differentiate them from mid-span PoE devices that sit between a non-PoE switch and the PD in retrofit applications. PoE switches must meet either the IEEE 802.3af standard (supplying 15.4 Watts in order to deliver 12.95 Watts to the end device) or the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standard (supplying 30 Watts in order to deliver 25.50 Watts to the end device).
Lantronix’s PoE switch family supports the latest PoE standards and are the ideal PSE for any network. We offer both Enterprise PoE switches and Hardened PoE switches so the network can get PoE power right where it’s needed. Our PoE switch family also offers managed or unmanaged versions to best fit your application. Auto Power Reset is also a valuable feature found in our PoE switches, which automatically powers cycles and reboots unresponsive connected power devices. View our PoE Switches below.
