NGSME8Hx

Niveo Professional NGSME8Hx - managed PoE+ switch with 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 2 SFP ports, and an increased PoE budget of 235W

The Niveo Professional NGSME8Hx is a managed PoE+ switch with an advanced power supply, designed for networks where endpoint devices consume a lot of power. It features 8 RJ45 ports with 10/100/1000Mb/s speeds and IEEE 802.3af/at power, delivering up to 30W per port with a range of up to 100m. The built-in power supply provides a total PoE budget of 235W. This allows the switch to power IP cameras, access points, touch panels, and microphones simultaneously, with plenty of power to spare. Two SFP slots accept 100M and Gigabit fiber modules for uplink connections over longer distances. The switch is QSC Q-SYS qualified and supports Dante, AES67, CobraNet, and HD-over-IP systems, making it suitable for audio-video installations as well. Self-Healing PoE automatically detects unresponsive devices and restarts the port power, while power line filtering reduces the chances of PoE device hang-ups.
