The switch provides a convenient way to power compatible devices, without the need to find additional power sockets or run extension cable in the home or office. The switch is also compatible with non PoE devices, cutting power to the port automatically if a non-PoE device is connected.

“The TPE-S80 complements our comprehensive PoE portfolio which includes switches, IP cameras, access points, splitters, and injectors,” stated Zak Wood, Director of Global Marketing for TRENDnet. “It has a broad array of applications whereby it can reduce installation costs by powering PoE and non-PoE devices (with the use of a PoE splitter) in remote locations.”

The TPE-S80 will be shipping shortly.

    Can anyone give an example of how you would use this? I'm a bit unclear as to what it actually does?

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/tezzer Terry Walsh

      Sure – let's say you want to connect a network device which is going to be positioned somewhere where you don't have a power socket nearby. E.g. an IP camera on the ceiling, or a wireless access point on a stairwell

      PoE switches carry both data and power over an Ethernet cable, so you can just connect one Ethernet cable between device and switch, and it'll receive a network connection and power. Handy!

    i got a 8 port 10/100 TP-Link 4 port POE switch for like $50 …. which 8 ports of POE is nice, $200 is too much.

    if it were gigabyte i would happy with this.

    I use my POE switch for my IP security cameras.

    oh and 12v power does not need to be inspected to be up to code… just use a CL2 rated CAT5/e/6 cable and you are good.

    to get 110v to a camera you need to be all up to code a such with plugs on a breaker and staples on the studs…. much more hassle

    Can you afford to spend a few hundred dollars (over a period of time) on lenses? Do you want superior quality and control? Yes? Go with the XT. I'm in high school too, and I own two Canon SLRs (XT and K2). You cannot compare an SLR with a point-and-shoot. SLRs provide you with so much more control and accuracy than simple point-and-shoots. Full manual settings (including focus), hundreds of options for lenses, dozens of filters… Etc.
