From EtherWAN , this is an EasyPoE Box Series 4-Port 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE + 2-Port 100/1000BASE SFP Managed Ethernet Switch in a NEMA 4X rated indoor/outdoor design for non-ventilated and harsh environments. It's futureproof with 90W power delivery per PoE port and backward-compatibility with 60W/30W/15W PoE protocols. An integrated splicing tray ensures safe fiber connection storage. The switch features preinstalled bulkheads for cable connections and DIN-rails for additional devices/accessories.
For home use, a simple unmanaged Gigabit switch is all you need to expand your router's ports. Buy a managed switch or a switch with PoE only if you are running security cameras, access points, or complex VLAN setups. Available from $1,998.1.
Basic unmanaged network switches use negligible power and have zero maintenance costs. PoE (Power over Ethernet) and large managed switches use more electricity but are still relatively cheap to run.
Common Failure Modes
Switches are solid-state devices with high reliability. When they fail, it is usually due to lightning strikes/power surges blowing individual ports or the internal power supply dying.

Network switches are extremely reliable solid-state devices. They are usually replaced because networking speed standards outgrow them, rather than due to hardware failure.
