To reduce network expansion costs and increase device flexibility, half of the FNSW-1608PS's 10/100Mbps TP ports can power up to 8 other IEEE802.3af PoE devices via Ethernet cables.

Designed for SOHO applications and branch networks, the FNSW-1608PS provides an easy-to-configure, low-cost, and high-performance network connection for both data transfer and power delivery. Moreover, it is an ideal device to connect workgroups or Ethernet and Fast Ethernet networks.

By providing data and power transfer, the FNSW-1608PS reduces the amount of required cables and electrical outlets, often located in hard-to-reach places. This solution reduces costs and facilitates installation and eliminates the need for additional power cables, extension cords and sockets. In addition, it allows for significant energy savings. The power efficiency of the FNSW-1608PS is much higher than that of separate power supplies.

With 8 PoE ports, the FNSW-1608PS is an ideal solution for small businesses and workgroups to easily and cost-effectively provide PoE power to wireless access points, IP cameras and IP phones located anywhere

The "smart" functions via the network or console make it easy to check the status and control of the PoE power supplied to network devices. It is also possible to manage basic switch functions such as VLAN, Trunking, QoS and bandwidth control over the network.
