Araknis Networks AN-220-SW-R-8-POE 220 Series Managed Layer 2 Gigabit Switch with Partial PoE+, 8-Ports, Rear Facing Ports

The Araknis Networks AN-220-SW-R-8-POE is an 8-port managed Layer 2 Gigabit switch from the 220 Series, with partial PoE+ and rear-facing ports. It gives installers full network control for single-family smart home jobs, and it works with OvrC for remote management. It stands out for its dual SFP uplinks on a dedicated fabric, its fanless 8-port design and its plug-and-play setup.

Key features

• OvrC support with added memory lets the switch identify which device is connected to which port.
• Fully managed Layer 2 control, with a GUI that simplifies VLAN and Link Aggregation setup and shows performance data and power draw.
• Two SFP uplinks sit on a dedicated fabric, so they deliver a full 1Gbps without using up a PoE port.
• All ports support PoE+ up to 30W on a more economical power budget, and all ports run at 1Gbps throughput simultaneously.
• Blue LEDs show power, port speed and link status, and the rear RJ45 ports have their own LED indicators.
• The 1U chassis mounts in a rack, on a wall or elsewhere, and the 8-port model is fanless for silent operation.

Installation notes

Allow for the 16″ rack depth and leave clearance around the venting when choosing a rack or wall location. Because the ports face the rear, plan cable routing and patch lengths before mounting, and add the switch to OvrC at commissioning to confirm each connected device.
