The POE-SW801 is a Fast Ethernet Switch with 8 10/100Mbps PoE ports. It provides up to 150W of power and data from a single point, using Power over Ethernet (PoE) over a single Cat-5 cable (sold separately), supplying industry-standard IEEE 802.3af power. Ports automatically detect devices, PoE requirements, speed, duplex, and cable type. The POE-SW800E is suitable for IP security cameras, but also works with wireless access points, VoIP phones, and other devices that use power over Ethernet.
