Thank you for choosing an Araknis 300-series Network Switch. The 300-series managed network
switch is an enterprise-class switch specifically designed for use in Ethernet applications within
the IT market.
With front-facing indicators and ports, the 300-series switch was designed for easy installation and
high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users could
increase continuously. The switch provides 10/100/1000Mbps capability on all ports and operates
as a plug-and-play device, auto detecting connections to other switches and allowing straight-
through patch cables throughout an installation. An intuitive GUI (Graphical User Interface) allows
for quick and easy configuration of the switch’s powerful features.
PoE models provide full PoE functionality. The PoE power budget in the AN-300-SW-F-8-POE /
-16-POE / -24-POE provides 15W on each port simultaneously. This helps the systems integrator
save time and effort calculating the available power budget as more PoE devices are added to
the switch.
The following table lists the models available in the 300-series family of network switches.

Overview
INTRODUCTION
Individual ports can provide up to 25W, but this will affect the available PoE budget for other
ports. Each PoE model can provide 25W on half of the available ports at the same time.
