Cisco PoE Switches
Power, performance, and security—purpose-built for the modern Cisco campus and smart-building edge.
Cisco’s Catalyst access family delivers the entire Power over Ethernet spectrum—from 802.3af PoE (15 W) to 802.3bt UPoE+ (90 W)—so a single, trusted platform can energize Wi-Fi 6/6E APs, surveillance cameras, LED lighting, sensors, and even thin-client workstations.
Full-Stack Power Options
| Standard | Max W/Port | Typical Endpoints |
|---|---|---|
| PoE (802.3af) | 15.4 W | VoIP phones, badge readers |
| PoE+ (802.3at) | 30 W | Wi-Fi 6 APs, PTZ cameras |
| PoE++ / UPoE (60 W) | 60 W | Pan-tilt-zoom domes, interactive signage |
| UPoE+ (90 W) | 90 W | Multiradio Wi-Fi 6E APs, IoT gateways, fan-less mini-PCs |
Dynamic power negotiation and per-port scheduling trim wasted wattage and shrink OpEx.
High-Speed Switching Fabric
-
Multigigabit copper (1/2.5/5/10 GbE) keeps high-draw UPoE+ devices fed at line rate.
-
StackWise-1T/480 unites up to eight switches as one logical chassis, scaling to 448 mGig ports with shared power pools.
-
Hardware-based 100 G IPsec and MACsec secure campus traffic without slowing it down.
