Add POE to non-POE Switch
Last year, I purchased a JGS524 24 port unmanaged switch. This year, I need to add POE access points (thinking of Ubiquiti) to extend our wifi signal. I was going to buy either a 4 port or 8 port POE Switch
Can I connect the new POE switch to my existing unmanaged switch? Any other suggestions on either switch or wifi?
Thanks in advance.
Any Netgear unmanaged or Smart Managed Pro PoE/PoE+/PoE++ unit.
I would go for a Insight or Remote Cloud Managed switch in combination with some Netgear One-touch wireless connectivity & visibility with Insight Managed Access Points - Insight and Local Web Manageable access points like WC505/WAC540/WAX610 if indoor for example.
Without knowing anything more - hard to help.
