Unmanaged PoE Switch BCS BCS-L-SP0401G-1SFP(2) — 5-port network switch with PoE support

Unmanaged PoE Switch BCS BCS-L-SP0401G-1SFP(2) — 5-port network switch with PoE support is a compact, plug-and-play network device that combines basic Ethernet switching with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability. It provides five ports for Ethernet connectivity including PoE on designated ports and one SFP-capable slot for fiber uplink, enabling simple expansion of wired networks and powering of compatible devices without configuration. The switch is intended for small office, retail, and home environments where reliable basic connectivity and device power delivery are needed.

Advantages

The switch offers straightforward installation and operation with unmanaged functionality, eliminating the need for setup or management interfaces. Integrated PoE support supplies power and data over the same cable to connected devices, reducing cabling complexity and the need for separate power adapters. Its compact footprint and inclusion of an SFP slot provide flexible deployment options and the ability to integrate into mixed copper and fiber networks.

Suitable for

• Connecting and powering IP security cameras in small surveillance systems
• Supplying power to wireless access points in small offices or retail spaces
• Extending wired networks and connecting VoIP phones or other PoE devices
• Providing an uplink to a fiber network via the SFP slot

Key specifications

• Port count: five 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports
• SFP slot: one SFP-capable uplink port for fiber modules
• PoE: Power over Ethernet support on designated ports to power compatible devices
• Operation mode: unmanaged, plug-and-play
• Form factor: compact desktop or wall-mountable switch

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface or mount it according to the included hardware. Connect the switch to your network by linking an Ethernet cable from your router or upstream switch to one of the Ethernet ports or use the SFP slot with a compatible fiber module for a fiber uplink. Plug PoE-capable devices such as IP cameras, access points, or VoIP phones into the PoE-designated ports using standard Ethernet cables; the switch will deliver both data and power over the same cable. No additional configuration is required for basic operation.

Usage recommendations

Ensure connected devices do not exceed the total PoE power budget of the switch; distribute high-power devices across ports appropriately. Use quality shielded Ethernet cables for environments with electrical interference and verify SFP module compatibility before inserting fiber modules. Place the switch in a well-ventilated area and avoid exposure to moisture or excessive heat to maintain reliable operation.
