Network switch built to deliver power and data to IP kit, with straightforward plug-and-play setup. UGREEN PoE Network Switch supplies four Gigabit PoE+ ports and two auto‑negotiating Gigabit uplinks, letting installers and small businesses avoid separate power adapters. Will it cope with longer runs and tougher environments?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Power Delivery: Four 802.3af/at Gigabit PoE+ ports, up to 30W per port, 60W total budget
  • Best for: Small offices, CCTV installers and IoT deployments needing simple PoE distribution
  • Not ideal for: Large enterprise networks requiring full managed switch capabilities or higher PoE budgets

Six-port metal-housed Gigabit switch with four PoE+ ports and two uplinks. Supports 60W total budget and long-distance PoE transmission up to 250 metres.


Extended coverage for remote cameras – thanks to long-distance PoE transmission

Ethernet signalling supports PoE++ long-distance power delivery, allowing powered links to reach up to 250 metres, well beyond standard 100-metre runs. The longer reach reduces the need for repeaters or extra power points.

Far-flung camera or access-point placements become feasible without extra power infrastructure, cutting installation complexity and hardware count.

Safer outdoor and industrial installs – with 6KV surge protection and metal housing

Built-in 6KV surge protection guards ports from voltage spikes common during thunderstorms and electrical fluctuations, while an all-metal case helps dissipate heat to maintain stable operation.

Deployments at entrances, yards or exposed sites tolerate harsher conditions with reduced risk of downtime and component damage.

Fast, fuss-free setup – thanks to plug-and-play design and auto-negotiating uplinks

Two Gigabit auto-negotiating ports pair speed and duplex automatically with connected equipment, and no configuration is required for basic operation. Wall-mountable and desktop-friendly form factor aids flexible placement.

Installers and DIY users can get cameras, access points and media boxes online quickly, with standard kit working straight away.

✨ The 4 Key Reasons for UGREEN PoE Network Switch
  1. Long-range PoE – Extends PoE runs to 250 metres, reducing repeater need
  2. High-voltage protection – 6KV surge defence shields equipment during storms and spikes
  3. Metal chassis – Durable all-metal case improves heat dissipation and longevity
  4. Easy deployment – Plug-and-play setup and wall-mountable design speed up installations
📋 Technical Details at a Glance

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are the PoE ports compatible with PoE+ and how much power is available per port?

A: Four Gigabit ports comply with 802.3af/at PoE+, each supporting up to 30W, with a 60W total power budget.

Q: Can Ethernet and PoE reach distant outdoor cameras?

A: Ethernet signals can travel up to 250 metres using the long-distance PoE support, which helps reduce repeaters for widespread camera deployments.

Q: Is any configuration required and does the switch protect equipment from electrical spikes?

A: No configuration is required for basic use as the switch is plug-and-play, and it includes 6KV surge protection plus VLAN virtual isolation for traffic segregation.

🏆 Our Verdict

Suitable for installers, small offices and homeowners needing a compact PoE solution for cameras and access points. The combination of extended PoE range, 6KV surge protection and an all-metal, wall-mountable design makes deployments quicker and more resilient. While not aimed at large managed networks, the feature set delivers reliable long-term value for small to medium installations.
