Product Description
The LevelOne FEP-0812 is an outstanding 8-port 10M/100M Fast Ethernet Switch. It comes with one uplink port and 4 ports featuring Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability. Each PoE port can supply up to 30W of power, and the total PoE power budget reaches 65W. This switch is a great choice for both office and home users who want to use a mix of PoE and non-PoE enabled devices. With 4 PoE-enabled ports, it's perfect for offices with PoE devices like IP Phones, wifi APs, and IP Cameras. It's an excellent solution for offices upgrading their equipment and LAN infrastructure to support PoE. The switch can automatically detect IEEE 802.3at/af compliant devices and provide power and data through a single cable. Key features include 4 Fast Ethernet PoE ports and 4 Fast Ethernet ports, IEEE 802.3af/at PoE compliance for easy deployment, auto-detection and protection of non-standard PoE devices, and IEEE 802.3x Flow Control for reliable data transmission. Technical specifications cover various standards, buffer memory, ports, indicators, transmission method, power input, consumption, MAC address table, data rate, operating temperature and humidity, PoE details, packet forwarding rate, dimensions, weight, and what's included in the package.
Using the LevelOne FEP-0812 switch is easy. First, connect the power cord to a 100 - 240V AC power source. Then, connect your devices to the appropriate ports. The 4 PoE-enabled ports can power and transfer data to IEEE 802.3at/af compliant devices with a single cable. For non-PoE devices, just use the other 4 Fast Ethernet ports. When using the switch, make sure the operating temperature is between 32 to 104F (0 to 40C) and the humidity is 10 to 90% (non-condensing). Avoid placing the switch in a hot or wet environment. For maintenance, keep the switch clean and free of dust. If you notice any problems, check the indicators on the switch. A power indicator should light up when it's connected to power. If there are issues with data transmission, the 10/100M and active indicators can help you troubleshoot. Also, be aware of the power budget. The total PoE power budget is limited, so don't overload the ports. Each PoE port can supply up to 30W, and the total budget varies depending on the model (e.g., Max. 60W for FEP-0812). That's it! With these tips, you can make the most of your LevelOne FEP-0812 switch.
