Introducing Comnet’s New 720W Industrial BT PoE Switch: Built for What’s Next
by Alex Trace
Introduction
Today’s networks face more demands than ever. From powering high-performance edge devices to delivering fast, uninterrupted data, reliability isn’t optional - it’s essential. That’s why Comnet is proud to introduce the first in our BT PoE switch family: the CNGE10FX2TX8MSBT, a next-generation, industrial-grade Ethernet switch engineered for the future. It is an industrial 8-port PoE switch with real 90W (802.3bt) simultaneous budget.
Power for Today. Ready for Tomorrow.
As IoT devices grow more powerful, they also draw more power. Smart cameras, sensors, signage, and automation tools now require up to 90W of PoE—and your network needs to keep up. The CNGE10FX2TX8MSBT is purpose-built for these evolving needs. All eight RJ45 ports can deliver full 90W simultaneously, with a total PoE budget of 720W, even across extreme temperature ranges.
Whether you’re running a smart intersection, managing a substation, or deploying high-resolution surveillance, this switch is ready.
Industrial Strength, Inside and Out
- 2 SFP Ports up to 2.5G for fast uplinks and scalability
- 8 RJ45 Ports up to 1G, each fully IEEE802.3bt Type 4 (90W) compliant
- Industrial hardened: Operates from -40°C to +70°C
- Port Guardian: Physically locks down ports if cables are disconnected—adding an extra layer of cybersecurity
- Redundant power supply inputs for mission-critical uptime
- Wall mount or DIN-rail mountable for flexible deployment
Need 720W today? We’ve got you covered. Don’t need it yet? Start with a smaller power supply—scale later without replacing the switch.
Engineered for Mission-Critical Industries
This switch is more than a piece of hardware. It’s the backbone of networks that can’t afford downtime. That’s why it’s built, tested, and supported in the USA, fully BABA, NDAA and TAA compliant, and backed by our limited lifetime warranty.
It’s ideal for:
- Security & Surveillance – Power ALPR, PTZ cameras, and access control with ease
- Intelligent Transportation – Deliver real-time data across DMS, traffic signals, and incident systems
- Power Utilities – Built to meet tough standards in substations and switchyards
- Manufacturing – Connect high-demand machines and automation systems on the factory floor
Why Comnet?
Comnet’s networking solutions are trusted across industries where uptime, performance, and security are non-negotiable. With rugged design, future-ready power, and flexible scaling, the CNGE10FX2TX8MSBT stands apart in a crowded market.
It’s not just a switch—it’s your long-term infrastructure solution.

EdgeReset™: The End of the Truck Roll for Routine Device Resets
Fewer site visits. Faster recovery. Ask any network operations team what their most frustrating recurring unnecessary use of resources is, and "truck rolls for power cycles" will come up fast. A camera locks up. An access control panel stops responding. A sensor goes dark. In almost every case, the fix is simple - turn it off, turn it on - but getting a technician to the device to do it is anything but simple.
The Media Converter Built to Reduce Site Visits
Built for the field. Smarter when you need it. Media converters don't get much attention — until one fails in a traffic cabinet at 2 a.m. during a snowstorm, or overheats in a substation enclosure in August. For network engineers and integrators specifying equipment for critical infrastructure, the media converter is often the weakest link in an otherwise well-designed system: a commercial-grade component asked to do an industrial-grade job.
No Enclosure to Build: Inside Comnet's Pre-Configured CNPE Series
Every outdoor network deployment starts with the same short list of problems: how do you power the device, how do you protect it from the environment, and how do you connect it back to the network. Historically, that meant sourcing an enclosure, a power supply, circuit breakers, surge protection, and cable management separately, then building the whole thing in-house before it ever reached the field.
