Popular networking brand expands industrial product line with high-power capacity switch

TORRANCE, Calif. – Dec. 8, 2016 – TRENDnet^® (www.TRENDnet.com), a global leader in reliable SMB and consumer networking solutions, announced its new Ultra PoE product category with the launch of a new high-power industrial-grade Gigabit PoE switch.

TRENDnet's 6-Port Hardened Industrial Gigabit Ultra PoE DIN-Rail Switch, model TI-UPG62, features a high-power capacity with a 240-watt power budget, enough power for even the most demanding networking and surveillance applications. This switch features four Ultra PoE ports and two dedicated SFP slots for long-distance fiber optics networking.

"At 60 watts of power, the new Ultra PoE category delivers double the power of the current IEEE 802.3at standard, and it is better fit to support the higher power requirements of today's devices," said Evan Davis, senior manager of solutions engineering at TRENDnet. "With a much higher power capacity, TRENDnet's Ultra PoE line helps to provide an uninterrupted service, especially when running critical network applications."

TRENDnet's industrial networking solutions line is designed for use in extreme environments with high-degrees of varying temperature, as well as in areas with large amounts of dust and debris. TRENDnet's new TI-UPG62 Ultra PoE industrial switch is equipped with a rugged IP30 rated metal housing. The new switch also features dual redundant power inputs with overload current protection, and an alarm output triggered by power failure.

Later this year, TRENDnet will introduce a Gigabit Ultra PoE+ Injector to add to its new and growing Ultra PoE product line.
