Singapore, 30 October 2024 — The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) of the United States recently emphasized the need for diverse technologies to enhance connectivity, even in the country’s most remote areas.

Hyconext recognized the growing need for scalable, high-performance networking solutions early on, and we fully support NTIA’s mission to deliver affordable, reliable high-speed internet across America. Hyconext is proud to introduce the NextWav Lite 2.5G PoE Switch, the Hyconext NextWav Lite, especially designed to meet the demands of expanding broadband infrastructure.

Tailored for small businesses and growing service providers, the NextWav Lite 2.5G PoE Switch delivers high-performance networking in a more cost-effective and space-efficient package that meets the specific needs of lean, budget-conscious organizations.

DESIGNED FOR SCALABILITY AND EFFICIENCY

The NextWav Lite 2.5G PoE Switch is engineered for businesses that require powerful networking solutions but are limited by space, power, and budget constraints. Featuring a smaller physical footprint and a simplified port configuration, this new model is an ideal fit for growing businesses, remote offices, and service providers looking to optimize their network infrastructure without overcommitting resources.

“With IoT adoption and demand for high-speed networking on the rise, small businesses need solutions that balance performance and affordability. Our NextWav Lite 2.5G PoE Switch provides reliable, high-speed connectivity with lower power consumption and a compact design,” says Sylvia, CEO of Hyconext.

KEY FEATURES

Optimized Connectivity for Small Deployments
The NextWav Lite is equipped with eight 2.5G PoE ports and two 1/10G SFP+ ports, providing the perfect balance of connectivity for smaller deployments while offering room for future growth. Its compact design allows for easy deployment of PoE-powered devices without the need for extensive infrastructure, making it ideal for businesses looking to scale up gradually.

Powerful PoE Delivery with Full Per-Port Flexibility
With up to 250W of PoE power, the NextWav Lite easily supports bandwidth-intensive applications such as video conferencing, cloud services, and IoT devices without sacrificing performance. Each port can be individually configured with one of three power polarity settings: 1/2(+) and 3/6(-), 4/5(+) and 7/8(-), or 1/2/4/5(+) and 3/6/7/8(-). Combined with selectable voltages of 25V or 50V, this provides six unique power delivery modes per port. This unmatched flexibility ensures maximum adaptability across a wide range of devices, giving network administrators more granular control over power distribution.

Dual Power Input for Versatile Deployment
The NextWav Lite supports both single AC (90-264 VAC) or DC/Battery (36-75 VDC) power inputs, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of power sources for various deployment scenarios. Whether deployed in traditional office environments or off-grid setups, it ensures efficient power consumption and maintains top-tier performance, helping businesses reduce energy costs without sacrificing reliability.

Compact and Space-Efficient Design
Measuring just 269mm (L) x 189mm (W) x 43.5mm (H), the NextWav Lite is significantly smaller than the standard NextWav model, making it perfect for installations in tight spaces such as retail shops, small offices, and remote workstations. The device’s versatility extends to its mounting options, allowing it to be installed under desks, on walls, or in compact network closets with ease.

Rugged Reliability in Extreme Conditions
With an operating temperature range of -30°C to 60°C, the NextWav Lite is built to perform reliably even in the harshest conditions. Whether in hot, cold, or fluctuating environments, this ruggedized device ensures uninterrupted service, making it a dependable choice for businesses in challenging climates or outdoor installations.

PERFORMANCE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Despite its compact size and lower price, the Lite version remains the core performance features that users expect from Hyconext.
