Switch ZyXEL GS-2220-28HP, 24 port Layer2+, 24x Gigabit PoE + 4x Gigabit combo (RJ45/SFP), Managed

This managed switch ZyXEL GS-2220-28HP is a solution for serious networks – offices, floors in buildings, larger sites, where you need many PoE ports and control over traffic. You have a total of 24 PoE ports for network devices and 4 combo Gigabit (RJ-45/SFP) for flexible connection to other switches or uplink. It works in a wide power supply range from 100 to 240V/AC, so it is convenient for standard infrastructure. The combination of managed Layer2+ switch with PoE and high power reserve makes it a good backbone for IP telephony, Wi-Fi access points and IP cameras.

What you get

With the 24 100/1000Mbps PoE ports you can directly power a large number of IP phones, cameras, access points and other devices without separate adapters and splitters. The 4 Gigabit combo (RJ‑45/SFP) ports give you the choice whether to use copper or optical links for uplink or connection to other switches, depending on distance and infrastructure. Maximum consumption from 463.5W means a solid PoE budget – you can safely plan multiple PoE devices without worrying that the switch will "run out". The table with 16K MAC addresses allows stable operation even in larger networks with many end devices. Thanks to the support for cabinet mounting you can integrate it cleanly and neatly into an existing rack.

• It has 24x 100/1000Mbps PoE ports, which allows you to directly power dozens of IP devices via the network cable.
• It has 4x Gigabit combo (RJ‑45/SFP) ports for flexible uplink connections – copper or optical, depending on the needs of the site.
• Supports a table with up to 16K MAC addresses, which ensures stable operation in loaded and growing networks.
• Maximum consumption from 463.5W suggests a high total PoE capacity for many powered devices.
• Works on power 100 to 240V/AC, 50 to 60Hz, so it fits without problems into standard electrical installation.
• Suitable for cabinet mounting, which facilitates organization and cooling in professional rack installations.
• Comes with 60 months warranty, which is a serious plus for critical network infrastructure.

Who is it suitable for

It is suitable for offices, hotels, schools, camera systems and any environments where you need many PoE ports and Layer2+ level manageability. If you are looking for a simple, small switch for a home router, this will be too heavy artillery, but for a central switch in a more serious network it is in the right place. A good choice is also if you plan gradual expansion of the number of IP devices.

The most sensible here is the combination of 24 PoE ports, 4 flexible uplinks and high PoE power, secured with a long 5-year warranty – a stable foundation for a network that you will not replace soon.
