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.

Unmanaged Industrial Ethernet Switch: Why Engineers Specify Comnet for Harsh-Environment Networks
A roadside cabinet in August. A conveyor line full of motor noise. A pump station nobody visits for months. An unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch earns its place in these locations by doing one job without attention, and the hardware you choose decides whether that edge network stays in service for a decade or becomes a recurring service call.
What Is Industrial Ethernet Switch Technology? A Guide for Critical Infrastructure Networks
A substation relay loses its link during a switching surge. A roadside camera drops offline in a heat wave. A packaging line stalls because the network switch in its control cabinet failed after two summers. In each case, the failed component was built for an office, not the field, and industrial Ethernet switches exist to close that gap.

A single dropped camera feed at a substation gate or a stalled badge reader at a hospital entrance rarely comes down to bad luck. More often, it traces back to how the Ethernet switch handling that traffic was chosen, configured, or hardened for its environment.
