Can the switch be powered via PoE? Thanks in advance!

Yes, the GS108Tv2 that is pictured can be powered by POE. If you notice in the picture port 1 has yellow highlighting. If you plug into port 1 from another POE power source you don't need to plug in the power brick to power this switch. I have this same switch and this is what it says in the Manual that came with it. "Power on the switch by connecting its AC-DC power adapter. For the GS108T, you can also power on the switch by connecting Port 1 to a PoE Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE)." I have tried this and it works. There is another version of the switch that is GS108(P or E) that can act as a POE Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) to power other devices.

Poe has classes, class 3 is up to 15 watts. All ports are class 3 capable, but as you have seen total available power is less. First 8 ports are poe+ up to 25w actually. In general, actual usage is typically less than class max, so you can oversubscribe some, but you can't buy this to power 48 times class 3 no. I wouldn't recommend this switch for demanding environments anyway, only smaller and misc stuff with a few vlans and things

It acts like a switch (with or without POE = POE can be turned off) , if you need routing you have to add that on

Yes, this unit is PoE. That's the only way it works. If you don't have a PoE switch, it has an adapter for you. If you can get a chance to read a PDF manual all the details are stated there.

I use a POE (Power Over Ethernet) switch. this should work if you have nothing else like it: TP-LINK TL-SF1008P, otherwise you can get a big 24 port switch and have it power more of your office equipment. Not sure on just a regular power supply though.

It is a passive switch. The only thing this unit does is to provide power via POE.

That is correct. It is not set up for POE but you can make your own POE cable and use it that way.Search the web for making a POE cable and give it a try

You may have to ask this question on the ubnt forums just to make sure, but my understanding is that it will not work. I remember reading that the unifi devices use a non standard 24v poe configuration. If you want it to be switch based I think ubiquiti sells a special switch that can provide the right voltage.

the PoE feature doesn't add current draw (power consumption) unless you're actually using it...unless a PoE device is connected. There is no benefit to disabling the feature.

There are adapters (power injectors) you can purchase that lets you send the power over the Ethernet cable. The adapters go on both ends of the Ethernet cable. However, most POE switches will not recognize it as a POE device. Therefore, it won't send the required voltage out to power the device , you still have to use the power adapter that comes with the camera. This is good so you don't have to have a power source close to the camera.

POE is not a support but rather a wiring scheme. That said it does not list a power rating on the unit. BE mindful of the wiring as you can fry your stuff.

You will need to run a cable for the actual internet connection but not for the power. The switch has a separate power adapter just like your router does.

Boy that would be great! But no. It means that if you have a PoE switch or injector you can run one single Ethernet network cable to handle power and data.

Yes. Listed in features: 802.3af PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) compatible enabling deployment in areas where power outlets may not be readily available.

No. Any switch that supports POE will very clearly say so in the description.

Negative. You need to have a pie injector or a pie switch that provides the voltage needed to power poe devices. A standard router will not power anything via Ethernet ports.
