The NSW2020-24T2GC-POE-IN is an unmanaged 19-inch rack-mount Fast Ethernet PoE switch with 24 × 100Mbps RJ45 PoE ports (priority ports 1-8) plus two independent 1000Mbps Combo RJ45/SFP uplinks (G1/SFP1, G2/SFP2), each able to switch on its own between copper and fiber for dual-link redundancy or aggregation. It delivers a 370 W total PoE budget (30 W max per port, IEEE 802.3af/at, Mode A and 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 440×245×44 mm 1U chassis (2.90 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.
- All 24 downlink ports are Fast Ethernet only (10/100Mbps, no Gigabit) — for 4K or multi-stream cameras that need gigabit throughput per port, choose a Gigabit PoE switch; only the two Combo uplinks (G1/SFP1, G2/SFP2) run at 1000Mbps.
- Unmanaged — no Web/CLI/SNMP access or per-port VLAN tagging; 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; this model is 802.3af/at only (Mode A/B), so 802.3bt high-power PTZ domes (60–90 W) need a bt-capable switch or injector.

Who uses it, where it goes and how to install it
Written for the NSW2020-24T2GC-POE-IN from its official datasheet: 24 × 100 Mbps PoE ports, 2 × 1000 Mbps Combo (RJ45/SFP) uplinks, 370 W PoE budget with 30 W per port, 250 m EXTEND mode, 1U rack chassis 245 mm deep.
Who it is for
- Projects that mix PTZ and fixed cameras — Parking lots, yards and warehouse perimeters: 8 PTZ cameras at 25.5 W on ports 1 to 8 plus 16 fixed cameras at 6 W total about 300 W, still under 85% of the 370 W budget.
- Installers building 24-channel systems — One 1U switch powers a full 24-camera NVR, and 24 mini PTZ or heater cameras at 13 W (312 W) still fit, which the 250 W NSW2020-24T2GC-LPOE-IN cannot do.
- Multi-site operators — No configuration on site: slide to VLAN (Secure) to keep the 24 camera ports isolated from each other, with PD keepalive restarting any camera that stops sending data.
- Sites with a fibre backbone — Two 1000 Mbps Combo uplinks (RJ45 or SFP) let a remote building reach the control room over fibre, beyond the 100 m copper limit, without a separate media converter.
Where and how to install
- Check cabinet depth first — The chassis is 440 × 245 × 44 mm and 2.90 kg, 50 mm deeper than the LPOE version. Measure the usable depth of a wall cabinet before ordering and leave room behind for the power cord; use rack ears and, in a deep floor rack, a shelf or rear support.
- Ventilation at high load — With up to 390 W drawn from the mains, a heavily loaded unit warms the cabinet more than the LPOE model. Keep the side vents clear, do not stack the NVR directly on top, and stay inside 0 °C to 45 °C; add a cabinet fan or air conditioning in hot equipment rooms.
- Power, earthing and surge — The AC 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz supply is built in. Earth the chassis to the cabinet ground bar and fit Ethernet surge protectors on PTZ and pole-camera cables that run outdoors, since those are the runs most exposed to lightning.
- Port plan — Wire PTZ cameras and key entrances to ports 1 to 8, which keep power first when the budget runs short. Connect G1/SFP1 to the NVR or core switch and keep G2/SFP2 for the next switch or a viewing PC.
- Cable runs — Keep camera runs within 100 m of solid-copper Cat5e or Cat6 in Default mode; for a camera 100 to 250 m away, EXTEND mode covers it but changes the whole switch. Use fibre on an uplink for anything farther.
PoE budget: how many cameras
370 W is the point of this model: it covers loads that the 250 W LPOE version cannot. The per-port limit is still 30 W, so the total budget, not the 24 ports, decides how many PTZ cameras you can add. Counts below keep the load under 85% (314.5 W), the level at which the PoE-MAX light turns on. The NSW2020-24T1GT1GC-POE-IN column shows the sibling with the same budget but one fixed RJ45 uplink plus one Combo uplink.

- Pick this model when more than 16 ports carry 13 W cameras, or when you need several 25.5 W PTZ cameras on the same switch as a full fixed-camera bank.
- Pick it over the NSW2020-24T1GT1GC-POE-IN when you want fibre on both uplinks, for example one fibre to the control room and one to a second building.
- If all your cameras are ordinary fixed models at about 6 W, the 250 W NSW2020-24T2GC-LPOE-IN is enough.
Both columns are from the official Uniview datasheets. Camera draws of 6 W (4 MP IR fixed), 13 W (mini PTZ) and 25.5 W (PTZ) are planning assumptions; use the max. power on each camera's datasheet, including IR and heater at night. 85% = budget × 0.85. Uplink copper runs are limited to 100 m; SFP fibre reach depends on the module.
