Powered device (PD) design for easy deployment (ES3500-8PD)
The ES3500-8PD features a special powered device design, making it easy to install in places where power outlets are not available. Users have the option of
powering the switch with either the external power adapter or via a Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection, with the PoE input prioritized when both are
available. The ES3500-8PD also comes in a fanless design that ensures silent operation in small or quiet office environments.
High power PoE with intelligent PoE consumption mode (ES3500-24HP)
The ES3500-24HP supports the IEEE 802.3at PoE Plus standard to ease the installation of powered devices in challenging spaces such as ceilings or walls. The
power supply of up to 30 watts per port allows the ES3500-24HP to power PoE-enabled WLAN APs, VoIP phones and IP surveillance cameras through CAT-5
cables of less than 100 meters (300 feet) in length. The ES3500-24HP also features the intelligent PoE consumption mode, which automatically detects the
amount of power each powered device needs and supplies power accordingly for more efficient use of power resources and better ROI for businesses.
