Unmanaged switch Intellinet 24-poorts Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ 561242

The Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch (model 561242) is an unmanaged rack-mount switch with 24 Gigabit RJ-45 ports and 2 SFP slots. It supports IEEE 802.3at/af Power over Ethernet with a total PoE budget of 370 W and a per-port capability up to 30 W, allowing the switch to power IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones and other PoE devices while providing switching capacity up to 52 Gbit/s.

Advantages

This switch supplies both data and power over standard Cat5e/Cat6 cabling and supports mixed deployments of PoE and non‑PoE devices. An integrated LCD status display shows real‑time power consumption per port, combined used power and total available power, as well as warnings for overload, high temperature and short‑circuit protection. Two dedicated SFP ports extend connectivity over fibre for longer distances while 24 auto‑sensing Gigabit ports deliver 10/100/1000 Mbps performance.

Suitable for

• Powering and connecting IP video cameras
• Supplying PoE to wireless access points and bridges
• Deployment with VoIP telephony systems
• Small to medium office or branch network aggregation

Key specifications

How to use

Install the switch in a standard 19" rack or place it on a stable surface. Connect network devices to the Gigabit RJ‑45 ports using Cat5e or Cat6 cables; install fibre modules in the SFP slots for fibre links if required. PoE‑capable devices will receive power automatically when connected; non‑PoE devices function as regular Ethernet endpoints. Monitor power usage and status messages on the front LCD screen to verify connected devices and to detect overload or protection events.

Recommendations

Ensure the connected PoE devices are IEEE 802.3at/af compliant to use per‑port PoE automatically; for legacy non‑PoE devices consider using a PoE splitter. Plan power distribution so the total connected device power does not exceed the 370 W budget. Allow adequate ventilation around the unit and follow standard rack installation practices to avoid overheating and ensure reliable operation.
