The NSW2020-24T1GT1GC-POE-IN is an unmanaged 19-inch rack-mount Fast Ethernet PoE switch with 24 × 100Mbps RJ45 PoE ports (priority ports 1-8) plus a 1000Mbps RJ45 uplink (G2) and a 1000Mbps Combo RJ45/SFP uplink (G1/SFP1), built for larger machine-room and wiring-closet camera aggregation projects. It delivers a 370 W total PoE budget (30 W max per port, IEEE 802.3af/at, Mode B pinout) over an 8.8 Gbps switching fabric with 6.55 Mpps forwarding, a 4M bit packet buffer and a 16K MAC address table, cooled by a single internal fan and powered from a built-in AC 100–240V supply (390 W max). The all-metal 440×250×44 mm 1U chassis (2.93 kg) runs from 0°C to 45°C and switches between Default (Normal), VLAN (Secure, downlink-to-uplink only, with PD keepalive to reboot unresponsive PoE cameras) and EXTEND (250 m surveillance reach) via a front-panel slide switch — no management software required, NDAA compliant.
Is This the Right Fit?
Six real deployment scenarios matched to this model's actual datasheet specifications.
- Downlink ports are Fast Ethernet only (10/100Mbps, no Gigabit) across all 24 ports — for 4K or multi-stream cameras that need gigabit throughput per port, choose a Gigabit PoE switch; only the two uplinks (G2, G1/SFP1) run at 1000Mbps.
- Unmanaged — no Web/CLI/SNMP access or per-port VLAN tagging, even with 24 ports to control; the front-panel switch offers only Default/VLAN/EXTEND positions, not granular configuration; choose a managed switch if you need remote monitoring or individual port control across a large camera bank.
- 370 W total budget can't power all 24 ports at 30 W simultaneously (24×30 W = 720 W ≫ 370 W) — plan camera load around the 8 priority ports, and note this model is 802.3af/at only, so 802.3bt high-power PTZ domes (60–90 W) need a bt-capable switch or injector.
Key Features
- 24 × 100Mbps RJ45 PoE ports (priority ports 1-8) plus a 1000Mbps RJ45 uplink (G2) and a 1000Mbps Combo RJ45/SFP uplink (G1/SFP1)
- 370 W total PoE budget, up to 30 W per port, IEEE 802.3af/at, Mode B pinout (4/5+, 7/8-)
- Ports 1-8 hold PoE power priority under budget contention
- Three working modes via front-panel slide switch: Default (Normal), VLAN (Secure, downlink-to-uplink only), EXTEND (250 m surveillance reach)
- VLAN (Secure) mode includes PD keepalive: automatically power-cycles an unresponsive PoE camera when it stops sending data
- IEEE 802.3x flow control, port traffic control and packet buffer optimization for smoother multi-camera streaming
- All-metal 440×250×44 mm 1U rack chassis with a single internal cooling fan, NDAA compliant

Who uses it, where it goes and how to install it
Written for the NSW2020-24T1GT1GC-POE-IN from its own datasheet: 24 × 100 Mbps PoE ports, one 1000 Mbps RJ45 uplink plus one 1000 Mbps Combo RJ45/SFP uplink, 370 W PoE budget, 30 W per port, 8.8 Gbps, 1U 19-inch rack body with 1 fan and built-in AC power.
Who it is for
- Projects of 17–24 cameras — Parking garages, supermarkets, factories and hotels that outgrow 16 ports: one 1U switch with 24 PoE ports replaces a 16-port plus an 8-port switch, with fewer power cords and one less cascade link.
- Sites with a mix of fixed cameras and PTZs — 370 W is about 15.4 W per port with all 24 in use, so 18 fixed cameras plus 6 PTZs at 25 W (258 W) still leave over 100 W of reserve.
- Campuses with a fibre backbone — The G1/SFP1 Combo port takes an SFP module to a core switch in another building, while the separate G2 RJ45 Gigabit port serves a local NVR or a second recorder.
- Unattended or multi-site installations — With 24 cameras per switch a frozen camera is more likely; in VLAN (Secure) mode, PD keepalive power-cycles a camera that stops sending data, and the cameras are isolated from each other.
Where and how to install
- Rack depth and position — The 1U chassis is 440 × 250 × 44 mm and 2.93 kg, deeper than the 16-port models, so check the cabinet depth and the space for cables at the back before ordering a shallow wall cabinet. Mount it next to the patch panel so the 24 camera patch cords stay short.
- Heat and airflow — It has 1 internal fan and can draw up to 390 W, much of which ends up as heat in the cabinet. Keep the vents clear, leave 1U free between it and a hot NVR, and add a cabinet fan or room air conditioning to stay within 0 °C to 45 °C.
- Power and UPS — Built-in AC 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz. Size the UPS for up to 390 W from this switch alone, plus the NVR and router; on a small UPS a full 24-camera load shortens backup time considerably.
- Recorders on G1/G2 only — Connect NVRs and viewing PCs to G2 or G1, not to ports 1–24. The datasheet says that in VLAN and Extend modes downlink ports only talk to the uplinks, so anything on a PoE port loses the cameras.
- Cable lengths, grounding and surge — Camera runs up to 100 m, or 250 m in Extend mode with solid-copper Cat5e/Cat6; copper uplinks up to 100 m, fibre beyond. No surge rating is listed, so earth the rack, add Ethernet surge protectors on outdoor runs, and use fibre between buildings.
- Plan ports 1–8 — Only ports 1–8 have PoE priority, out of 24. Put PTZs, entrances and cash desks there, label the patch panel, and keep the less important cameras on 9–24.
PoE budget: how many cameras it really powers
370 W across 24 ports is about 15.4 W per port. That runs 24 fixed cameras (144 W) or even 24 mini PTZs (312 W). The limit only appears with many full-power devices: 30 W per port on 12 ports already uses 360 W, so with more than about 12 large PTZs, split them across two switches.

- Pick the NSW2020-24T1GT1GC-POE-IN for 17–24 cameras on one or two NVRs, including up to about 12 PTZs at the full 30 W.
- For 16 cameras or fewer, the NSW2020-16T1GT1GC-POE-IN has the same uplink layout in a shorter chassis.
- If all 24 are ordinary fixed cameras (~144 W) and you want lower consumption, compare the NSW2020-24T2GC-LPOE-IN; for two fibre uplinks, the NSW2020-24T2GC-POE-IN.
Camera draws of ~6 W (4 MP IR bullet/dome), ~13 W (mini PTZ) and 25 W (larger PTZ) are typical assumptions; check each camera's datasheet. Budget, per-port, distance and PoE-MAX thresholds are from the Uniview datasheet.
