Twenty-four multi-gigabit PoE++ connections with 10G uplinks
24 × 2.5G PoE++4 × 10G SFP+740 W shared PoEWeb Smart and static routing
The TRENDnet TPE-3284WSB combines twenty-four 2.5G PoE++ copper ports with four 10G SFP+ uplinks. Web management, VLANs, QoS, LACP and IPv4/IPv6 static routing support organised SMB networks. Its 740 W shared PoE budget powers compatible devices, while optional Hive cloud management is a separate remote-management option.
Best For: SMB racks with multiple 2.5G powered endpoints, managed traffic and compatible 10G uplinks.
Before you order: Each PoE++ port is rated up to 95 W PSE, but all twenty-four share 740 W. Do not plan all ports at 95 W together. Perpetual PoE maintains endpoint power during switch reboot/update while AC input remains available, not a mains outage. Hive is optional and additional fees may apply. Four smart fans require appropriate rack placement.
What's in the Box
- TPE-3284WSB with internal AC supply.
- Power cord 1.8 m and rackmount kit.
- Optical modules, fibre/DAC links and Ethernet cables selected separately.
- Optional Hive service is separate; no prepaid subscription is established.
What It Means in Practice
- Connect twenty-four copper devices at 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps and power compatible PoE endpoints within the shared budget.
- Use compatible 1G/10G modules or links in the four SFP+ cages.
- Configure VLANs, LACP, QoS, spanning tree and access controls for the actual network.
- Use static routing where suitable and configure PoE recovery/monitoring deliberately.
What Will Not Work
- 740 W cannot supply all twenty-four ports at 95 W simultaneously.
- Four 10G uplinks have finite capacity relative to twenty-four 2.5G access ports.
- Static routing does not establish WAN firewall/NAT functions.
- No fanless operation, included optics or built-in battery backup.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can every port provide 95 W together?
No. The twenty-four ports share a total 740 W budget.
Is Hive free and included?
Hive is optional and additional fees may apply; no prepaid service is established.
Does Perpetual PoE cover a power outage?
No. It maintains PD power during switch reboot/update while mains input remains available.
Is the console an extra network port?
No. There are twenty-four copper data ports and four SFP+ links; the console is for administration.
Singular Expert Insight
Check both PoE and uplink demand. A large number of high-power-capable ports does not mean all can operate at maximum power simultaneously, and four 10G uplinks can become the traffic limit. Allocate device loads, VLANs and paths deliberately, then account for fan noise and optional cloud costs.
Buyer’s Guide
✓ Buy it if You need managed 2.5G PoE++ access for many devices with four compatible 10G uplinks.
✕ Skip it if You need all ports at 95 W together, silent desktop use or built-in UPS.
→ Also consider Combined PoE draw, uplink traffic, optics/cabling, rack airflow, noise and Hive fees.
