About the Crestron CEN-SWPOE-26

The 24 PoE+ ports (IEEE 802.3at Type 2) each deliver up to 30 W, with a maximum combined output of 300 W, and two further Gigabit ports are without PoE. There are also four 1 Gigabit Base-X SFP ports. The switch fabric is 60 Gbps non-blocking, with up to 16K MAC addresses, and it offers Layer 2 and Layer 3 managed switching with LLDP support.

Crestron designed it to mount in a lighting enclosure or a 19 inch rack; in a rack it takes 1U with reversible rack ears, and it can also stand freely. The Lite Layer 3 package covers VLANs, QoS and ACLs, IGMP snooping, IEEE 1588 PTPv2, static and dynamic routing, and DOT1X, MAB and DHCP snooping security, with management through a web GUI, CLI, SSH or SNMP.

The black metal chassis is fan cooled with vented sides and measures 43.2 mm high, 440 mm wide and 257 mm deep. Main power is 4.4 A at 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, and consumption is 401 W at maximum PoE, 35.8 W without PoE and 23.4 W in standby. A PoE MAX LED, repeated front and rear, shows when the switch is supplying its maximum PoE.
