Eaton NGI-U08C2POE8 Tripp Lite 8-Port Gig PoE+ Switch
Overview
The Eaton NGI-U08C2POE8 is a robust 8-port unmanaged industrial Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to expand network connectivity in challenging operational environments. This device seamlessly integrates both power and data transmission over a Gigabit Ethernet network, providing a streamlined solution for industrial and commercial applications such, as factory floors, warehouse operations, and outdoor installations with space constraints or wide temperature fluctuations. It effectively addresses the need to power compatible devices like security cameras, sensors, and wireless access points without the logistical complexities of separate power lines or proximity to AC outlets. Engineered for reliability, the NGI-U08C2POE8 features eight auto-negotiating 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports that support PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) standards, delivering up to 30W per port. The switch offers a total PoE budget of 240W at 48VDC or 120W at 24VDC, enabling flexible deployment of various powered devices. Furthermore, it includes two Gigabit Ethernet SFP slots, facilitating fiber optic uplinks for extended network reach and enhanced data transmission capabilities. The ruggedized metal housing is built to withstand significant vibration, shock, and free fall, while maintaining operational integrity across an extreme temperature range of -40°C to 75°C (-40°F to 167°F). Deployment of this unmanaged switch is straightforward, requiring minimal to no configuration, ensuring true plug-and-play functionality. It supports essential network features such as MAC address auto-learning, auto-aging, and automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, simplifying installation and ongoing network maintenance. The compact form factor is designed for convenient DIN rail mounting using a pre-installed clip, allowing for efficient use of space within industrial control cabinets and other constrained areas. Integrated LEDs provide clear indicators for power and port activity, aiding in quick status identification and troubleshooting.
