This guide covers ANPA’s Fast Ethernet (10/100Mbps) PoE switch family across all port counts — 4, 8, 16 and 24 ports — from the AP-1024PE through the AP-10224KE, with power budgets scaling from 60W to 400W. Every model shares the same dependable platform: IEEE 802.3af/at, QoS, stackable design and 250m extend mode, with the larger models adding gigabit/SFP uplinks. Use the comparison table and per-model notes below to match port count and power to your camera, AP and phone count. Request a quote for factory-direct pricing and OEM/ODM terms.

*The 4-port AP-1024MN/AP-1024PE listing references 802.3af/at/bt; 8/16/24-port models list 802.3af/at. All models support 250m extend mode on designated ports.
4-Port: AP-1024PE / AP-1024MN (60W)
The entry point of the family powers up to four cameras, APs or phones with a 60W budget. Choose the mini-chassis AP-1024MN for wall boxes and tight spaces; the AP-1024PE denotes the standard chassis. Best for small shops, homes and satellite drops — see the AP-1024MN/AP-1024PE comparison.
8-Port: AP-1028PE / AP-1028MN (120W)
The most popular count for retail and SMB: eight PoE ports with 120W comfortably covers eight standard cameras. Choose the standard AP-1028PE or the compact mini-chassis AP-1028MN; the 6-port AP-1026MN (90W) fills the gap for five/six-device sites.
16-Port: AP-10216KE (250W, GE + SFP uplinks)
Sixteen Fast Ethernet PoE ports plus two gigabit uplinks and an SFP fiber slot, with a 250W budget, make the AP-10216KE the mid-density floor switch — QoS, stackable and 250m extend included for medium surveillance and hospitality.
24-Port: AP-10224KE / AP-10224GE (400W, GE + SFP)
The high-density core: 24 PoE ports, a 400W budget, two gigabit uplinks and SFP for fiber backbones. The AP-10224KE (AI watchdog, rack-mount) anchors high-density campuses; the AP-10224GE is the stackable 24-port variant. Together they cover schools, hotels, factories and warehouses.
How to Select Port Count and Power
Count your PoE devices and add 1-2 spare ports. Estimate draw at roughly 7-15W per standard camera/AP (up to 30W for PTZ), total it and add 20-30% headroom. Use Fast Ethernet for 1080p CCTV and VoIP; move to the gigabit series for 4K cameras and Wi-Fi 6. Mix sizes freely — 24-port cores with 4/8-port satellites is a recommended architecture. The full selection logic is in the AP-10xx series selection guide.
Application Scenarios
Retail & Restaurant Chains
Standardize per site: 4/8-port mini switches in small stores, 16/24-port cores in flagship locations, all sharing the same 10/100M feature set and management-free operation.
Schools, Hotels & Hospitals
High room/zone counts map naturally to 16 and 24-port models with GE/SFP uplinks aggregating to central NVRs across floors and buildings.
Factories & Warehouses
Long aisles and perimeters use 250m extend mode on every model, while SFP uplinks link workshop areas to the equipment room over EMI-immune fiber.
Integrator / Distributor Stocking
A coherent 4/8/16/24 family lets distributors hold a predictable range with consistent behavior, common accessories and uniform OEM branding.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Which Fast Ethernet model should I choose for my port count?
Up to 4 devices: AP-1024MN/AP-1024PE (60W). Five or six: AP-1026MN (90W). Up to 8: AP-1028PE/AP-1028MN (120W). Up to 16: AP-10216KE (250W). Up to 24: AP-10224KE/AP-10224GE (400W). Always add 1-2 spare ports and verify total wattage.
2. What is the difference between the AP-10224KE and AP-10224GE?
Both are 24-port Fast Ethernet PoE switches with 24 FE + 2 GE uplink + 1 SFP, 802.3af/at and a 400W budget. The AP-10224KE is the AI-watchdog rack-mount model with its own dedicated page, while the AP-10224GE is the stackable variant (QoS, stackable, 250m extend). See each product page for details.
3. Do all models support 250m long-distance mode?
Yes — the family features 250m extend mode on designated ports (at 10Mbps), useful for perimeter, gate and parking cameras. Standard ports run 100m at full 10/100 speed.
4. Why do the 16/24-port models have gigabit and SFP uplinks?
Aggregating 16-24 camera streams over a Fast Ethernet uplink risks a bottleneck. Gigabit uplinks and the SFP fiber slot keep recordings smooth and allow long or EMI-immune fiber backbones to the core.
5. Is Fast Ethernet sufficient for modern CCTV?
For 1080p and most multi-megapixel cameras, yes: they use a few Mbps each. Specify gigabit (AP-30xx series) for 4K/8MP multi-stream cameras, Wi-Fi 6 APs or heavy data traffic.
6. Are these switches managed?
They are unmanaged and plug-and-play, with hardware DIP presets for QoS/VLAN and extend mode and (on select models) AI watchdog auto-recovery. Full web management is available on the gigabit AP-3344GE.
7. How does OEM/ODM work across the family?
ANPA manufactures the entire range in its own Chaozhou factory and offers custom logo/labeling, packaging, firmware and configuration across all models with low MOQs. Request a quote for program terms.
