The Advantech EKI-2705 Series is a compact line of unmanaged industrial Ethernet switches with built-in Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) support, designed for reliable operation in harsh and space-constrained environments. Available in both Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet configurations, these switches provide flexible options for powering and connecting network devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and sensors.
Equipped with up to 4x IEEE 802.3af/at PoE/PoE+ ports, the EKI-2705 Series delivers both data and power over a single cable, reducing the need for separate wiring and lowering installation costs. Each model also includes an additional uplink port for easy network expansion. Featuring redundant 24–48 VDC power inputs, built-in polarity reverse protection, and overload current fuses, the switches are engineered to maintain stable operation under demanding industrial conditions.
With compact IP30-rated metal enclosures, DIN-rail or wall-mount installation options, and wide operating temperature support from -40°C to +75°C, the EKI-2705 Series is suitable for roadside cabinets, factory automation, and security systems. Built-in LEDs provide at-a-glance monitoring of power, link, speed, activity, and PoE status, while relay outputs trigger instant alarms in case of power failure.
The EKI-2705 Series is RoHS compliant, UL certified, and fully tested for EMC, vibration, and shock resilience. With its PoE capability, rugged design, and flexible port options, the EKI-2705 Series is an ideal unmanaged switch solution for powering critical edge devices in industrial networks.
