View full detailsA network switch connects computers, printers, IP cameras and access points on one wired network. Adepta Technologies lists network switches in Kenya from 5 to 52 ports, covering unmanaged desktop models, PoE switches for CCTV and Wi-Fi, and smart or managed switches for larger networks.
How to choose a switch
- Speed: Fast Ethernet is 100Mbps per port; Gigabit is 1000Mbps. Pick Gigabit for new installs, NAS and cameras. Standard twisted-pair Ethernet links reach 100m.
- Port count: count devices and add spare ports. 5, 8, 16, 24 and 48-port models are common.
- PoE standard: 802.3af provides up to 15.4W at the switch (12.95W guaranteed at the device); 802.3at (PoE+) up to 30W at the switch (25.5W at the device); 802.3bt goes higher. Check the device's class.
- PoE budget: the budget is one shared pool, not a per-port promise. Add the reserved power for each powered port and keep around 10 per cent headroom. A switch with 8 PoE ports and a small total budget cannot power eight demanding devices at once.
- Unmanaged, smart or managed: unmanaged switches need no setup. Smart and managed models add VLANs, monitoring and often PoE control.
- Mounting: desktop or 19-inch rack.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a PoE switch for CCTV?
Not always, but PoE removes the need for a power point at each camera. Confirm the camera's PoE standard and the switch's total power budget.
Managed or unmanaged?
Unmanaged is plug and play. Choose smart or managed if you need VLANs, monitoring or port control.
Can Fast Ethernet and Gigabit devices share a switch?
Yes. Each link negotiates its own speed, running at the slower device's speed.
