Ethernet Switch QOLTEC 52297 PoE RJ45 with PoE Uplink and SFP port

QOLTEC 52297 is an Ethernet switch with multiple RJ45 ports that support Power over Ethernet (PoE) and includes an SFP port for fiber uplink. The device aggregates network traffic from PoE-enabled endpoints while delivering power to compatible devices over standard Ethernet cabling. It is intended for environments that require centralized power delivery and network connectivity such as small offices, retail sites, and surveillance installations.

Advantages

The switch combines RJ45 PoE connectivity with an SFP uplink option, enabling both copper-based device connections and fiber backbone integration. Integrated PoE simplifies installation of devices like IP cameras, access points, and VoIP phones by removing the need for separate power supplies. The design focuses on compact network aggregation with straightforward deployment in existing Ethernet infrastructures.

Suitable for

• Small office networks requiring centralized power and data distribution
• Retail locations with multiple PoE devices such as POS systems and wireless access points
• Surveillance systems using PoE IP cameras
• VoIP telephony deployments needing power and network over the same cable
• Network edge sites that benefit from fiber uplink via an SFP port

Key specifications

• Ethernet RJ45 ports with Power over Ethernet capability
• SFP port for fiber uplink integration
• Supports simultaneous data transmission and power delivery over Ethernet cabling
• Suitable for deployment in small-scale network aggregation and access layer roles

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface or in a rack if applicable, connect power according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and link PoE-capable devices to the RJ45 ports using standard Ethernet cables. Use the SFP port to connect to fiber backbone or uplink devices with a compatible SFP transceiver. Configure connected network devices and, if required, any management options available on the switch or central network controller to ensure proper VLANs, IP addressing, and security settings.

Usage recommendations

Place the switch in a ventilated area with ambient temperatures within the device’s operating range, use quality Category-rated Ethernet cabling for PoE devices, and verify PoE power budgets when connecting multiple high-draw endpoints such as PTZ cameras or high-power access points.
