Switch gestito Trendnet TPE-5028WS

TRENDnet TPE-5028WS is a rack-mountable managed Gigabit Ethernet switch with 24 PoE+ ports and four shared gigabit uplink ports (RJ-45 or SFP). The switch provides a 56 Gbps switching capacity, IPv6 support, an 8000-entry MAC table and a 370W PoE power budget to power network devices. It offers a web-based management interface and a set of monitoring and control features suitable for small and medium business networks.

Advantages

The TPE-5028WS combines PoE+ power delivery (up to 30W per port) with a 370W total budget, a built-in power supply and a 1U rack-mount design for compact deployment. Web Smart management simplifies configuration while SNMP, RMON, port mirroring and syslog support enable effective monitoring. Managed features such as VLAN, ACL, QoS, link aggregation and IPv6 readiness provide flexible integration and traffic control for complex network environments.

Suitable for

• Powering and connecting wireless access points, VoIP phones and PTZ IP cameras
• Edge switching in SMB and branch office networks
• Networks requiring VLAN segmentation, QoS and SNMP monitoring

How to use

Mount the TPE-5028WS in a standard 19-inch rack using the supplied brackets and connect the built-in AC power cable. Use the web-based management interface to perform initial configuration: assign IP settings (IPv4/IPv6), create VLANs, enable PoE on required ports and configure QoS and link aggregation as needed. Connect uplink ports to your core switch or router via RJ-45 or SFP modules and attach PoE devices to the PoE+ ports.

Recommendations

For predictable power delivery, calculate total PoE consumption of connected devices and ensure it does not exceed the 370W budget. Enable VLANs and QoS to prioritise voice and camera traffic, and use SNMP/RMON or port mirroring for ongoing monitoring and troubleshooting.
