Pros
- Costs about $0.64 per PoE watt, cheaper than most here
- A 250 W budget powers a large camera or access point deployment
- VLANs and a web interface let you separate cameras and guests
- Can be managed from the maker’s cloud or app
Cons
- Budget works out to 15.6 W per PoE port, so not every port can run at 30 W at once
- Has a fan, so it adds noise
- No SFP uplink for fiber or a 10G link
