TRENDnet has announced new PoE++ switches that utilize GaN (gallium-nitride) power technology. This advanced technology provides greater efficiency, a lower carbon footprint, and superior performance.

TRENDnet has incorporated GaN technology into its initial two network switches: the 6-Port 2.5G GaN Power PoE++ Switch with 10G SFP+ Ports (TPE-BG5062) and the 9-Port 2.5G GaN Power PoE++ Switch with 10G SFP+ Port (TPE-BG5091). These switches are equipped with high-efficiency GaN internal power supplies, providing up to 95 watts of PoE power per port. This capability makes them suitable for powering demanding devices, including advanced security cameras, high-power access points, digital signage, and access controls.

The incorporation of GaN technology in TRENDnet's latest switches presents numerous advantages, including:

• Enhanced power density: GaN power devices are capable of delivering greater power outputs while minimizing their size and weight.
• Enhanced thermal performance: The elevated power efficiency minimizes heat generation, removing the necessity for cooling fans and leading to a more subdued operation.
• Improved energy conversion efficiency: GaN technology facilitates more effective power delivery, minimizing energy losses and enhancing overall system reliability.
• Decreased electromagnetic interference (EMI): The rapid switching capabilities of GaN devices significantly reduce EMI, guaranteeing dependable performance in challenging environments.

TRENDnet's GaN power PoE++ switches are equipped with 2.5G PoE++ ports, which are compatible with existing Cat5e or better cabling, as well as 10G SFP+ ports designed for ultra-fast connection speeds and long-distance fiber applications. These switches maintain backward compatibility with 10/100/1000Mbps network devices.

The latest GaN power PoE++ switches offer the following features:

• Compact design: The high-efficiency GaN internal power supplies facilitate a more compact form factor, minimizing heat generation and the necessity for cooling fans.
• The fanless design minimizes noise levels during operation, making these systems suitable for applications where silence is crucial.
• Rack mountable: The switches are engineered for installation versatility, enabling seamless integration into existing infrastructure.

These products can be purchased online at the TRENDnet Store as well as through authorized distributors, resellers, and retail partners globally.
