Switch PoE não gerido ERNITEC ELECTRA-U16-1GB 16 portas, 1 GbE Uplink, 285W Power Budget

ERNITEC ELECTRA-U16-1GB is an unmanaged PoE switch with 16 PoE-enabled ports and a single 1 GbE uplink port. The device provides a total PoE power budget of 285W and is designed for plug-and-play installation, delivering both network connectivity and power to compatible devices without requiring configuration. The compact form factor and fan-cooled design make it suitable for deployment in small to medium-sized network environments where straightforward, reliable PoE delivery is needed.

Advantages

The switch offers 16 PoE ports with centralized power distribution up to 285W, enabling simultaneous powering of multiple IP cameras, wireless access points and VoIP phones. Its unmanaged architecture ensures immediate operation upon connection, removing the need for setup or ongoing management. A dedicated 1 GbE uplink provides high-speed aggregation to core switches or routers, while the durable metal housing supports rack or shelf mounting and continuous operation.

Suitable for

• Small business or branch office networks requiring PoE for IP phones and access points
• Video surveillance systems with multiple PoE cameras
• Wireless network deployments where access points need centralized power
• Temporary or fixed installations that benefit from plug-and-play simplicity

Key specifications

• Number of PoE ports: 16
• Uplink: 1 × 1 GbE port
• Total PoE power budget: 285W
• Switch type: Unmanaged Ethernet switch
• Port speed: 10/100/1000 Mbps on uplink and compatible ports
• Power delivery: IEEE 802.3at/af (PoE/PoE+ compatible)
• Form factor: Desktop or rack-mountable metal enclosure
• Cooling: Integrated fan cooling for continuous operation

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface or mount it in a rack according to available mounting options. Connect the switch to your network core using the 1 GbE uplink port and power the unit from a compatible AC source. Attach PoE-capable devices—such as IP cameras, wireless access points or VoIP phones—to the PoE ports using standard Ethernet cables; the switch will automatically detect and power connected devices. No software configuration is required for basic operation, and status LEDs provide visual indication of link and power activity.

Recommendations

Plan PoE power distribution to ensure the combined power draw of connected devices does not exceed the 285W budget. For installations with power-hungry devices, prioritize port assignments and consider device power requirements (PoE vs PoE+) to maintain reliable operation. Ensure adequate ventilation around the switch to support fan cooling and avoid placing the unit in confined or excessively hot spaces.
