Q: Is this Power Over Ethernet. ??
A: Hi, Denny. The ports on the Linksys SE3016 switch are not PoE ports but auto-sensing ports that adjust to maximize data flow rates for 10/100/1000 Mbps.
Q: Will this work if used after a Linksys Velop Home WiFi?
A: Yes, BigAl. The Linksys 16-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch will work with the Linksys Velop Home Wi-Fi.
Q: Will this work with cat 6 cable and patch panel
A: Yes, it will. I’m using Cat 6 and Cat 5e, the cabling difference between the two are that they’re twisted more tightly inside of the jacket for Cat 6. The patch panel will connect the jacks just fine, the switch even comes with a rack mount adapter too, to install in a 1 U space.
Q: Can you hard wire the Switch in or is it only WiFi connected and Ether net cables out?
A: Hi, LazyJoe. The Linksys SE3016 Gigabit Switch needs to be connected via Ethernet cable to transfer data across a local network.
