Hello dear community.


I am looking for a good future-proof switch for a single-family home that is equipped with Cat 7 cables and Cat6a sockets in terms of network technology. I would also like to operate a few PoE devices, so I took a closer look at this switch, which is suitable for me.

Now to my real question:

So how many watts does the switch use when idle without PoE devices and without active data traffic? Unfortunately, only the maximum power consumption is stated in the data sheet.

Can someone help me and possibly carry out a measurement? Many thanks
