The EtherWAN Hardened Managed 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch is a robust networking solution designed for demanding environments. It features 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports, each delivering up to 30W, alongside 4 SFP ports supporting 1/10-Gigabit speeds for high-bandwidth uplinks. With a 720W PoE power budget, 2GB of DDR3 memory, and a durable metal construction, this switch is engineered for reliable performance in a wide range of industrial and outdoor applications, capable of operating in temperatures from -49 to 167°F.
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 $4,134.
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.
