TRENDnet TPE-BG380 8-Port 2.5G PoE++ Network Switch
Overview
The TRENDnet TPE-BG380 is an unmanaged 8-port 2.5G PoE++ switch designed to enhance network bandwidth and eliminate traffic bottlenecks in demanding environments. It provides a straightforward, high-speed networking solution for connecting power-hungry devices such as Wi-Fi 6 access points, high-resolution PTZ cameras, and advanced access control systems. This switch is engineered for small to medium-sized businesses or enterprise workgroups that need to upgrade their infrastructure beyond standard gigabit speeds without a complex management interface. At its core, the TPE-BG380 leverages 2.5GBASE-T technology across all eight of its RJ-45 ports, enabling multi-gigabit speeds of up to 2.5Gbps over standard Cat5e or better cabling. This capability allows for a cost-effective performance upgrade without the need for a complete cable overhaul. The switch also features a robust 230W total PoE power budget, compliant with the IEEE 802.3bt standard, allowing it to deliver up to 95W of power per port to connected devices. Designed for operational simplicity and reliability, the switch features a durable, wall-mountable metal housing and a fanless design for silent operation, making it suitable for deployment in noise-sensitive office environments. Its unmanaged, plug-and-play nature ensures rapid installation; simply connect devices, and the switch is operational. The 40Gbps switching capacity ensures that all ports can operate at full speed without creating internal chokepoints.
