UltraLAN 8 Port 96W Fast Ethernet Switch with 8 AI PoE and 2 Uplink Ports

The UltraLAN SF08PAI+2FE-96W is a 10 port switch with 8x 10/100Mbps 802.3af/at PoE ports and 2x 10/100 uplink ports. The 802.3af/at ports will auto detect and identify IEEE802.3af/at devices before supplying any voltage, therefore you do not have to worry about damaging your Non-PoE equipment. Total maximum PoE budget is 96W and the maximum budget per port is 36W.

What is AI & how does it work? 

AI is an integrated intelligent port monitoring protocol, AI monitors traffic on each individual port of the switch and if no traffic passes through the interface after 120 seconds the port is automatically reset, as a result the non responding device receives a hard reboot and comes back online automatically. 

The benefits of AI are twofold: With a traditional switch the entire switch must be reset which means ALL devices go offline (including even perfectly functioning devices), it is also typically a manual process requiring human intervention which means downtime is significantly longer and in remote locations particularly cumbersome and costly. AI can significantly increase system uptime while massively reducing system downtime.

AI functionality can be activated and deactivated via a toggle switch on the device.

AI Key Features & Modes:

AI Extend: 1-8 ports can be extended to support cable length of up to 250 meters, bare copper cable is recommended 

AI VLAN: Isolating ports 1-4 from each other can effectively suppress network storms and improve network performance.

AI QoS: Customize application priority to improve network sensitivity. For example, video priority will take preference over other protocols

AI power: Monitor each port on the switch for traffic and if no traffic is detected power off and restart the device
