Dell K2V1V 28-Port 24x PoE+ 4-Port 2.5GBT PoE 2-Port 10G SFP+ Switch

Product Description

The Dell K2V1V is a versatile and high-density network switch designed to support modern, power-intensive network deployments. It features a total of 28 Ethernet ports, with a significant portion dedicated to Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+). Specifically, it offers 24 x 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 x 1 Gigabit Ethernet ports, all capable of delivering PoE+ power (IEEE 802.3at). The inclusion of 2.5GbE ports is particularly noteworthy, as it provides higher bandwidth than traditional Gigabit Ethernet, making it ideal for supporting the latest generation of high-performance wireless access points (Wi-Fi 6/6E), IP cameras, and other demanding IoT devices that require more power and speed. To ensure seamless connectivity and prevent network bottlenecks, the switch is equipped with two 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplink ports. These high-speed uplinks allow for robust connections to core network infrastructure or aggregation switches, ensuring that the aggregated traffic from the numerous PoE+ devices can be handled efficiently. The switch typically offers a substantial PoE power budget, enabling it to power a large number of devices simultaneously without compromising performance. This Dell switch is designed for managed environments, offering advanced features for network administration, security, and quality of service (QoS). It allows IT professionals to configure VLANs, prioritize traffic, implement security policies, and monitor network performance effectively. The combination of high-density PoE+, faster 2.5GbE speeds, and high-speed uplinks makes the Dell K2V1V an excellent choice for enterprise deployments requiring robust power delivery and increased bandwidth for edge devices, such as in modern office buildings, campuses, or smart city initiatives.
