Rockleigh, NJ, May 3, 2013 – The new Crestron 5-port unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switch is now available. CEN-SWPOE-5 now supports 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet to handle the highest traffic and bandwidth demands for maximum performance of today’s high-definition multimedia content.
 
CEN-SWPOE-5 furnishes Power over Ethernet (PoE) across four of its ports and provides a central power source for numerous PoE powered devices. This eliminates the need for cumbersome power supplies and extra wiring while offering a clean, one-wire solution for connecting Crestron touch screens, gateways, and other networked devices.
 
Ideal for use anywhere a simple and dependable network switch is needed, CEN-SWPOE-5 installs in minutes and no configuration is needed. Offered in a low profile, low cost design, CEN-SWPOE-5 mounts easily and discreetly on a wall or in a rack.
 
CEN-SWPOE-5 complements Crestron DigitalMedia™ switchers and control systems that feature Gigabit Ethernet ports, - including Crestron Control Subnet. Designed and engineered to work together seamlessly with a Crestron network, CEN-SWPOE-5 provides another useful addition to a complete, end-to-end Crestron solution.
 
Power over Ethernet affords a one-wire solution for connecting Crestron touch screens, gateways, and other devices, delivering power and data over a single CAT5/6 network cable. All 5 ports are Gigabit capable to ensure maximum bandwidth for multimedia and critical control data.
 
Using the CEN-SW-POE-5, there is no need to install a separate power supply at each networked device location. The CEN-SW-POE-5 can simply be mounted at a convenient location on a wall or in an equipment rack, providing a single power source for four separate 802.3af compliant PoE powered devices. Non-PoE devices may also be connected to any port on the CEN-SW-POE-5 without risk of damage to either component.
