The Veracity CAMSWITCH Mobile is a compact, low-voltage 802.3at PoE switch designed for mobile and remote applications. It features four 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet LAN ports with PoE+ (30W per port) and one non-PoE 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet WAN port, providing flexible connectivity for IP cameras and other PoE-powered devices. Weighing just 10.2 oz and measuring 4.3 x 3.9 x 1.5 inches, this durable switch is ideal for deploying network devices in challenging environments, operating reliably in temperatures from 14 to 122°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 $309.95.
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.
