The LevelOne GEP-0823 is an 8-port Gigabit Ethernet PoE switch that provides Power over Ethernet on all eight of its ports. Per PoE port a power supply of up to 30W is possible. The total PoE power budget is 120W. It is the ideal solution when office and home users are using a combination of PoE and non-PoE devices. The GEP-0823\'s eight PoE-enabled ports make it an ideal solution for office users who use PoE-enabled devices and already want to power a larger number of PoE devices. These products can be a mix of PoE IP phones, PoE Wifi APs and PoE IP cams. It is the perfect solution for offices that want to upgrade their office equipment and LAN infrastructure to PoE capability or upgrade their existing PoE infrastructure to Gigabit speed. The switch automatically detects the connected IEEE 802.3at/af standard device and provides these devices with power and data over a single cable. The GEP-0823 also enables users to provide a stable and reliable high-speed LAN environment with storeand-forward switching architecture, packet error filtering and blockade-free packet forwarding. The 802.3x flow control mechanisms operate in both full and half duplex modes. This switch also supports the N-Way auto negotiation protocol, which automatically detects network speed and duplex mode. For instant fault detection, the GEP-0823 is equipped with a complete set of LEDs to help monitor and troubleshoot the network.
