The ANPA AP-3344GE is a compact web-managed gigabit PoE switch for installers who need real control over small networks — VLAN segmentation, traffic prioritization and per-port management — without the cost or complexity of an enterprise chassis. It provides four gigabit PoE ports (IEEE 802.3af/at), two gigabit copper uplinks and two SFP fiber slots, all configurable through an intuitive web management interface. Use it to isolate security cameras from office traffic, guarantee VoIP call quality with QoS, link to a core over fiber, and monitor PoE power per port — with the added safety of an AI watchdog and full electrical protection. Ideal for managed SMB, retail, hospitality and small-surveillance deployments. Request a quote for OEM/ODM and volume pricing.

Product Overview
While unmanaged switches simply forward traffic, the AP-3344GE lets you shape it. The browser-based management interface exposes port status, PoE power consumption, link statistics and configuration — no CLI expertise or licensing required. Installers can set up the switch in minutes and hand customers a network that is segmented, prioritized and remotely diagnosable.
VLAN (802.1Q) support is the headline capability. Create separate virtual networks for surveillance, office data, guest Wi-Fi and VoIP so a compromised camera cannot reach business systems, and so broadcast traffic on one segment never slows another. Port-based and tag-based VLANs are both supported, with the two SFP slots carrying tagged VLAN trunks to a core switch over fiber — perfect for multi-room or inter-building topologies.
QoS (802.1p/DSCP) prioritizes latency-sensitive traffic: assign voice and video to high-priority queues so VoIP calls remain clear and PTZ camera feeds stay smooth even when the network is busy. Administrators can also configure port mirroring for troubleshooting, rate limiting, loop detection, and PoE scheduling (powering ports on/off by time to save energy). The integrated AI watchdog auto-reboots unresponsive powered devices.
Hardware is built for reliability: four af/at PoE ports with a 60W budget, gigabit performance across all ports with a 22Gbps switching fabric, two SFP slots for fiber uplinks, and comprehensive per-port over-current, over-voltage and short-circuit protection. The metal chassis runs fanless for silent operation. Every AP-3344GE is CE, FCC and RoHS certified and manufactured in ANPA’s Chaozhou factory under the same 9-step, 100%-inspection QC program as the rest of the range.
Application Scenarios
VLAN-Isolated Enterprise Networks
Segment a small office into secure zones — staff data, guest Wi-Fi, management and VoIP — on one switch. 802.1Q VLANs prevent lateral movement and contain broadcast traffic, with SFP trunks linking the segments back to the core over fiber.
Separating CCTV from Office Traffic
Retailers and offices place cameras and business devices on the same physical network but different VLANs, so NVR traffic never competes with point-of-sale or office data and camera networks stay isolated for compliance and security.
VoIP Voice Prioritization
Use QoS to place voice traffic in the highest-priority queue. Even during large file transfers or video streaming, phone calls remain clear and free of jitter — a common requirement in hotels, clinics and customer-facing offices.
Fiber-Linked Multi-Room & Building Topologies
The two SFP slots connect distant rooms, floors or outbuildings to the main network over fiber, carrying multiple tagged VLANs on a single fiber link while providing complete electrical isolation.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between a managed and unmanaged PoE switch?
An unmanaged switch works out of the box with no configuration but offers no control over traffic. A managed switch like the AP-3344GE adds a web interface for VLANs, QoS, port mirroring, PoE scheduling and monitoring. Choose managed when you need to isolate networks (e.g., cameras vs. office), prioritize VoIP, or troubleshoot remotely.
2. Why would I need VLANs on a PoE switch?
VLANs logically separate devices sharing the same cabling. For example, put security cameras on one VLAN and office PCs on another so camera traffic is isolated for security and cannot slow business systems. The AP-3344GE supports 802.1Q tag-based and port-based VLANs, with the SFP slots carrying VLAN trunks to the core.
3. How does QoS improve VoIP and video quality?
QoS marks and queues traffic by priority. Voice (VoIP) and live video are placed ahead of background downloads, so calls stay clear and camera feeds remain smooth during congestion. The AP-3344GE supports 802.1p and DSCP priority modes configurable from the web interface.
4. What can the two SFP slots be used for?
They accept SFP fiber modules for gigabit fiber uplinks — to connect beyond 100 meters, link separate buildings, or run through electrically noisy areas. A single fiber trunk can carry multiple tagged VLANs between the managed switch and a core switch.
5. Can I monitor and control PoE power per port?
Yes. The web interface shows per-port PoE status and power consumption, and you can enable/disable ports, set power limits and configure schedules to power devices on/off automatically (e.g., turning off non-essential APs at night to save energy).
6. Does the AP-3344GE support AI watchdog?
Yes. In addition to manual management, the AI watchdog automatically detects powered devices that stop responding and cycles port power to reboot them — combining self-healing hardware with full administrator control.
7. Is the web interface hard to set up?
No. The switch ships with a default IP address and an intuitive graphical interface designed for installers and SMB administrators — no CLI or certification required. ANPA provides configuration guidance and OEM-branded documentation on request.
8. What are the MOQ and customization options?
MOQ is 1 piece, and ANPA offers OEM/ODM services including custom logo, firmware branding, default configuration and packaging for distributors and integrators. Request a quote for details.
