POE Switch

[DSapseid]

I am working with a supplier to try and get the pricing down on a quote for CCTV and he said that i can get a better price than him on the POE switch which is probably true i just dont know what make/model i need. It justs needs to be able to take up to 24ports all POE. I have found a d-link one here but not sure if this is good as i have never used d-link for switches i have always bought HP.

 

Do HP do a POE Switch?

2626-pwr but note that if you want to supply poe on all ports you will probably need the extra power supplies.

Depends on how many ports you want.

 

I've a few of these and they seem reliable (were recommended by a guy froma CCTV company when we replaced some)

I installed a HP 2626-PWR recently and they are great, but a very deep switch! You need arms of steel to install this in a rack

 

I was under the impression only the HP 2648-PWR needed an external power supply to supply PoE to all 48 ports?

That may be the case I'm not sure just making sure he checks it out.

2626-pwr supplies 406 watts of poe power, 15.4 watts per port.

 

The 2626-pwr can have an external power unit installed for redundancy.

I'll add another voice for the 2626-PWR, we use this in our office area to power half our phones (the other half are powered by a 5406zl).

Just bought/installed a Netgear GS724PT (24-port 10/100/1000 POE) for our 'isolated' wireless network. Seems pretty good, smart switch too.

Votes 2626 too...

 

Only downside with it is, the 2626 doesn't power our Aironet Access Points... the 8 port version does though.

 

Good switch NtL

I have been told the netgear ones are pretty good.

 

Not talking from my experience though.
