Difference SG300-10PP or SG300-10MPP

[adaelwireless]

Hi,

Can anybody tell me the difference between these two models ?

The SG300-10MPP supplies 124 watt while the SG300-10PP supplies 62 watt on 8 ports but I'd like to know in which case use one or other ?

Thanks,

Christophe

Hi adaelwireless,

The SG300-10MPP stands for Max power over ethernet thus it has more power on the POE side compared to the SG300-10PP. Hope this helps!

Hi,

I'd like to install 8 Cisco Aironet 2700 access point.

Should I use SG300-10PP or SG300-10MPP?

Thanks

Hello, 

From the data sheet of the 2700 Aironet:

Power draw

● AP2700: 15W

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/aironet-2700-series-access-point/datasheet-c78-730593.html 

Which means that if you are using 8 at the same time you will need 120 watts available

Now from the data sheet of the g300 devices:

SG300-10PP

62W (PoE+ supported)

SG300-10MPP

124W (PoE+ supported)

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/small-business-smart-switches/data_sheet_c78-610061.html

You will definitely need a SG300-10MPP to be able to provide enough power.

I hope this was helpful

Hi! Have you already purchased the  SG300-10MPP and the 2700 Aironet?  Please refer to cchamorr post for power specifications. Let me know if you have any concerns.

Email me directly at (bsiapco@cisco.com)

Thanks!

Hello, 

Both switches are PoE Plus capable (802.3at protocol) so the main different is the maximum PoE capacity.

the M on MPP stand for Maximum power which means that all the ports on the switch are capable of providing 15.5 Watts at the same time, while the Sg300-10PP will be able to provide 7.5 watts on every port or go up to 15.5 watts on certain ports but other will not have PoE if you do so.

For example, if you were to use 4 devices that require 15 watts on the SG300-10PP, the switch is capable of doing so, but you will be maxing out the PoE capabilities so, the rest of the ports wont have any PoE left to provide.

I hope this was helpful

Hello, adaelwireless. 

Ferdinand is correct, the MPP model can provide you max PoE power. How much power would you need?

What are you trying to achieved?

By the way, Ferdinand got it right!
