Netwerkswitch HP Enterprise 1920-8G-PoE 180W (JG922A-RFB) 8x Gigabit, PoE, 180W totaalvermogen

The HP Enterprise 1920-8G-PoE 180W is a managed Ethernet switch that delivers eight Gigabit RJ-45 ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability and a total PoE budget of 180 W. Designed for small offices and branch sites, the switch supports basic management functions including VLAN segmentation, traffic prioritization and access control to connect IP phones, wireless access points and security cameras while supplying power over the network cable.

Advantages

This switch combines full Gigabit connectivity with an integrated PoE power budget sufficient for multiple powered devices, reducing the need for separate power supplies. Its management features — including VLANs, QoS and security controls — provide the necessary tools to segment traffic, prioritize voice and video, and restrict unauthorized access. The compact, rack-friendly form factor and fanless design options make it suitable for quiet office environments while offering reliable, always-on Ethernet connectivity.

Suitable for

• Small office networks requiring centralised wired connectivity and PoE power
• Branch offices or retail sites deploying VoIP phones and wireless access points
• Surveillance installations powering and connecting IP cameras
• Environments needing basic managed features: VLANs, QoS and security filtering

Key specifications

• Ports: 8 × Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 with PoE support
• Total PoE power: 180 W across PoE ports
• Management: Web-based GUI and basic managed features (VLAN, QoS, access control)
• Performance: Gigabit switching on all ports with wire-speed forwarding
• Form factor: Compact desktop or rack-mountable design suitable for small deployments

How to use

Install the switch on a desktop surface or mount it in a small rack if mounting brackets are available. Connect the switch to your network core or router using one of the Gigabit ports. Attach PoE-capable devices such as IP phones, wireless access points or IP cameras to the PoE-enabled ports; the switch will negotiate power automatically with compliant devices. Access the management interface via a web browser from a connected workstation to configure VLANs, QoS policies and security settings according to your network design. Monitor port status and power consumption through the management console to ensure balanced power distribution.

Recommendations

Plan PoE power allocation before deployment: total connected device power draw should not exceed the 180 W budget. Distribute high-power devices across ports and, if necessary, prioritize critical devices in the management interface. Keep firmware up to date and use VLAN segmentation to separate voice, surveillance and general data traffic for predictable performance and improved security.
