They rule some series out and keep others in:<\/p>\n<ul><li><strong>Management level:<\/strong> an unmanaged switch simply connects devices. A smart switch adds VLANs and basic settings. Managed L2\/L2+ adds full layer-2 control and some static routing. L3 switches run routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP and suit aggregation and core roles.<\/li><li><strong>PoE:<\/strong> 802.3af\/at (PoE+) delivers up to 30 W per port; some series support 802.3bt or UPOE+ for higher power. What matters most is the total PoE budget shared by all ports.<\/li><li><strong>Uplinks:<\/strong> gigabit SFP for small sites; 10G SFP+ or faster when floors connect back to a main room.<\/li><li><strong>Stacking:<\/strong> managing several switches in the same rack as one unit.<\/li><li><strong>Management platform:<\/strong> a cloud dashboard for multiple branches, an on-site controller, or device-by-device management.<\/li><\/ul>\n<p>Passive infrastructure (cabling, outlets and testing) is covered in our article on <a href=\"\/en\/sa\/media-center\/structured-cabling-network-systems\/\">structured cabling and network systems<\/a>, so we do not repeat it here.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6bfb5c7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6bfb5c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>What does each brand offer in switches and Wi-Fi?<\/h2>\n<p>The products available from each brand are listed on its AZEIDK page: <a href=\"\/en\/brand\/cisco\/\">Cisco<\/a>, <a href=\"\/en\/brand\/huawei\/\">Huawei<\/a>, <a href=\"\/en\/brand\/ruijie\/\">Ruijie<\/a>, <a href=\"\/en\/brand\/tp-link\/\">TP-Link<\/a>, <a href=\"\/en\/brand\/alcatel\/\">Alcatel<\/a> and <a href=\"\/en\/brand\/utepo\/\">UTEPO<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Cisco<\/h3>\n<p>AZEIDK supplies four Cisco switch families. <strong>Catalyst 1200<\/strong> is a smart managed range for small and mid-size sites, 8 to 48 ports, with PoE budgets from 67 W on the 8-port model to 375 W on the 48-port model. <strong>Catalyst 1300<\/strong> is fully managed and stacks up to eight units, with PoE budgets up to 740 W and OSPF on 1300X models only. For enterprise networks there are <strong>Catalyst 9200<\/strong> and <strong>Catalyst 9300<\/strong>; the 9300 reaches 90 W per port (UPOE+) and uplinks up to 100G depending on the family.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meraki MS130<\/strong> is managed entirely from the Meraki cloud dashboard, and per the official datasheet each switch needs an Enterprise or Advanced licence. On the Wi-Fi side, Catalyst 9166 (Wi-Fi 6E), the outdoor 9163E and Wireless 9176 (Wi-Fi 7) are available.<\/p>\n<h3>Huawei<\/h3>\n<p><strong>eKit S310<\/strong> is a managed range for SMEs with 24 or 48 ports, managed locally via web or from the cloud through the Huawei eKit app, with official datasheet PoE budgets of 380 W on the S310-48P4X and 846 W on the S310-48HP4X; other models differ. <strong>CloudEngine S5735-L-V2<\/strong> is a gigabit enterprise access range that keeps PoE running while the switch reboots; XE models stack up to nine switches. For aggregation and core, <strong>CloudEngine S6730-H-V2<\/strong> offers 10GE SFP+ ports, 40\/100GE uplinks and a built-in WLAN controller for up to 1,000 access points. Access points include AirEngine Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 models, plus eKit models for smaller sites.<\/p>\n<h3>Ruijie<\/h3>\n<p>Ruijie&#8217;s <strong>Reyee<\/strong> line is built around cloud management via Ruijie Cloud and the Reyee app, which Ruijie advertises as free for life. <strong>RG-NBS3200<\/strong> is managed L2+ with 24 or 48 PoE+ ports, four 10G SFP+ uplinks and a 370 W budget on PoE models. <strong>RG-ES228GS-P-V2<\/strong> targets IP cameras: according to Ruijie it recognises connected IP cameras, supports PoE watchdog and keeps PoE running during switch restarts, with a 370 W budget. For enterprises, <strong>RG-S5310-E<\/strong> is an L3 access range with OSPF, BGP and stacking of up to eight units. Access points cover Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 for ceilings, walls and outdoors.<\/p>\n<h3>TP-Link (Omada)<\/h3>\n<p>The TP-Link switches supplied belong to the <strong>Omada SDN<\/strong> platform, which brings switches, access points and gateways under one central management. <strong>SG2210MP<\/strong> has eight PoE+ ports and a 150 W budget for small sites; <strong>SG3428MP<\/strong> has 24 PoE+ ports, a 384 W budget and L2\/L2+ features. SG3428MP runs standalone (web, CLI) or with an Omada hardware, cloud-based or software controller. The OC200 or OC300 hardware controller removes the need for a dedicated management PC. Access points include the EAP670, EAP615-Wall and EAP650-Outdoor, all Wi-Fi 6.<\/p>\n<h3>Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise<\/h3>\n<p><strong>OmniSwitch 6360<\/strong> is a stackable gigabit access range (up to eight units as one virtual chassis), including small fanless models for installation near users, with PoE budgets up to 760 W on the larger models. <strong>OmniSwitch 6560<\/strong> is an L3 access range with gigabit and multi-gigabit (2.5G\/5G) ports and IEEE 802.3bt high-power PoE. For Wi-Fi, OmniAccess Stellar access points are available in indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi 6 and in Wi-Fi 7.<\/p>\n<h3>UTEPO<\/h3>\n<p>UTEPO focuses on PoE switches for surveillance and harsh environments. <strong>UTP3318S-PSB250-M0<\/strong> is unmanaged with 16 PoE+ ports and a 230 W budget; DIP switches select default, QoS, CCTV or VLAN modes. Managed L2 models come in 8 and 24 ports, and the L3 <strong>UTP5628S-PSB-L3<\/strong> has a 370 W budget, four 10G SFP+ uplinks and RIP, OSPF and BGP. <strong>UTP7308GE-POE<\/strong> is a fanless DIN-rail industrial switch rated for -40 to 75 \u00b0C.
