PoE Switch ATTE IP-5-11-M2 (5-port, 802.3af compliant)

ATTE IP-5-11-M2 is a compact 5-port PoE switch compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard. Designed for small network installations, it combines five Ethernet ports with Power over Ethernet capability to deliver both data and power over a single cable. The device supports powering IP cameras, wireless access points and VoIP phones that conform to 802.3af, reducing the need for separate power supplies and simplifying cable management in constrained spaces.

Advantages

The switch provides centralized power delivery and data connectivity in a single device, enabling quick deployment of edge network devices without additional power wiring. Its compliance with the 802.3af standard ensures compatibility with a wide range of PoE-enabled equipment. The small footprint and straightforward setup make it suitable for mounting in cabinets or placing on a desktop where space is limited.

Suitable for

• Small office or retail network segments requiring PoE for IP cameras
• Wireless access point installations in compact sites
• Voice-over-IP phone deployments in branch offices or reception areas
• Temporary or mobile setups where quick cabling and power consolidation are needed

Key specifications

• Ports: five Ethernet ports with Power over Ethernet support
• PoE standard: IEEE 802.3af compatibility
• Form factor: compact desktop or cabinet-mountable unit
• Power delivery: per-port PoE power allocation according to 802.3af limits
• Data rate: standard Ethernet speeds on each port (10/100 or as specified by device family)

How to use

Install the switch on a flat surface or within an equipment cabinet, ensuring adequate ventilation and access to the network and power sources. Connect the upstream network device (router or switch) to one of the Ethernet ports to provide data connectivity. Plug PoE-capable devices into the remaining ports using standard Ethernet cables; the switch will negotiate PoE according to the connected device requirements and the 802.3af specification. Observe power budget limits when connecting multiple devices to avoid overloading the switch's PoE capacity.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, place the switch in a dry, dust-free environment with ambient temperatures within the manufacturer’s specified operating range. Use CAT5e or higher quality Ethernet cables for both data and PoE delivery. Verify the power requirements of connected devices and avoid exceeding the total available PoE budget; if more power is needed, consider a higher-capacity PoE switch or powered injectors. Regularly check cable terminations and device connections to maintain stable network and power delivery.
