LevelOne Switch PoE Gigabit de 8 puertos, 802.3at/af PoE, 120W

The LevelOne GEP-0823 is an 8-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with Power over Ethernet (PoE) available on all eight ports. Each PoE port can supply up to 30W, with a total PoE power budget of 120W. The device supports mixed deployments of PoE and non-PoE equipment and automatically detects IEEE 802.3at/af devices to deliver power and data over a single cable.

Advantages

The GEP-0823 provides Gigabit-speed connectivity and PoE on every port, making it suitable for connecting and powering PoE IP phones, PoE Wi‑Fi access points and PoE IP cameras. It uses store-and-forward switching with packet error filtering and supports 802.3x flow control as well as N-Way auto negotiation for automatic speed and duplex detection. A full set of LEDs enables quick status checks and fault detection.

Key specifications

• Ports: 8 × Gigabit Ethernet with PoE on all ports
• Per-port PoE power: up to 30W
• Total PoE budget: 120W
• PoE standards supported: IEEE 802.3at/af
• Switching method: store-and-forward
• Flow control: IEEE 802.3x (full and half duplex)
• Auto negotiation: N-Way
• Status indicators: complete set of LEDs for port and device monitoring

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface or mount it in a rack if supported. Connect each network device using Cat5e or better Ethernet cables. PoE-capable devices will be detected automatically and receive power and data via the same cable; non-PoE devices will operate as standard Ethernet endpoints. Ensure the total power draw of connected PoE devices does not exceed the 120W budget. Use the LEDs to verify link status, activity and PoE power delivery, and consult the manual for additional troubleshooting steps.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, distribute high-power PoE devices across ports to avoid overloading the total budget, use quality Ethernet cables (Cat5e or higher), and plan the network to keep the aggregate PoE usage within 120W. Regularly check LEDs for faults and consult product documentation for firmware updates and detailed configuration.
