Build a cleaner edge network with more powered ports in less rack space. The TRENDnet TPE-TG262 gives you 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports for endpoint power and data, plus 2 SFP slots for uplink flexibility. That mix makes it a practical fit for surveillance, wireless, and voice deployments where copper access ports and fiber uplinks need to coexist in a single chassis. Its 1U rack-mountable metal housing is designed for structured wiring closets and branch network rooms where density, serviceability, and physical durability matter. With Layer 2 management and manageable operation, the switch fits environments that need more control than an unmanaged device while staying focused on straightforward access-layer deployment. For teams standardizing on PoE infrastructure, the TPE-TG262 offers the port count and uplink options that justify its place above entry-level switches. It is built for installations that need to power many endpoints, preserve rack space, and keep the network organized as it scales.
