ToughSignal Managed 8-Port Industrial Gigabit PoE++ Switch (MMH-POE-8P-BT) delivers enterprise-grade power, control, and reliability for mobile, off-grid, and industrial networks. Designed specifically for RV, marine, van conversion, overlanding, mobile command, and industrial automation applications, this switch combines full Layer 2 management with robust PoE++ output and a wide 12–56V DC input range thanks to an integrated voltage booster.
All 8 Gigabit RJ45 ports support PoE, with up to 90W per port (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt) and a total PoE power budget of up to 480W when using dual DC inputs. Housed in a rugged, fanless IP40 aluminum enclosure and rated for temperatures from -40°C to 75°C, this managed switch is built for harsh environments and mission-critical deployments where uptime and stability are essential.
ToughSignal is the in-house engineering hardware division of MobileMustHave.com. Our products are designed by experienced network engineers and field-tested in real-world mobile and industrial environments. All ToughSignal hardware includes a 1-year manufacturer warranty managed directly by our U.S.-based support team.
Note: This switch is designed for direct-wired 12–56V DC input via terminal block and does not include a power adapter. Optional fused DC power cables and AC-to-DC adapters are available separately if you wish to power the switch from 120V AC.
