Global Unmanaged PoE Switch Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Unmanaged PoE Switch market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1468 million in 2025 to US$ 2094 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2026 to 2032.
Global sales of PoE unmanaged switches are projected to reach 30 million units by 2025, with an average selling price of approximately $50 per unit.
A PoE unmanaged switch is a network device based on Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology. It transmits data and power simultaneously over a single network cable, supporting power supply for terminal devices such as IP phones, wireless access points (APs), and network cameras. Its core feature is "plug and play," requiring no configuration or management. It is suitable for scenarios with high network stability requirements but low management needs, such as small to medium-sized surveillance systems and enterprise office networks. The industry's gross profit margin is approximately 15%-25%.
Upstream: Covers chips (Ethernet controllers, PoE power supply chips), hardware (network transformers, capacitors, resistors), and structural components (metal casing, heat dissipation modules); Midstream: PoE unmanaged switch manufacturers, responsible for product design, assembly, and testing; Downstream: Wide range of applications, including security monitoring (camera power supply), enterprise offices (wireless AP deployment), and smart homes (smart door lock/lighting power supply), etc.
Market drivers mainly include the following:
Technological integration drives scenario expansion. The deep integration of PoE technology with 5G, AI, and IoT is giving rise to a new paradigm of "one-line dual-use" intelligent networks. For example, PoE switches power 5G small base stations, reducing deployment costs; combined with AI cameras, they enable real-time video stream analysis and edge computing. This technological integration capability upgrades PoE switches from simple power supply devices to intelligent hubs for network management. Their intelligent diagnostic systems can monitor port power in real time and automatically cut off power in case of overvoltage, short circuits, or other abnormalities, ensuring device safety.
Policy support and improved standards accelerate adoption. Policies such as "Made in China 2025" and the "New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan" provide institutional guarantees for the industry. Local governments subsidize smart parks and smart city projects using PoE technology, promoting its adoption in areas such as public safety and environmental monitoring. Meanwhile, the introduction of the IEEE 802.3bt standard increases single-port power to 90W, supporting high-power devices such as LED displays and industrial robots, further expanding application boundaries.
Diversified market demand drives innovation. The demand for PoE switches continues to grow in areas such as smart homes, industrial internet, and data centers. For example, in smart home scenarios, PoE switches power devices such as smart locks, lighting, and sensors, simplifying wiring; in the industrial internet field, PoE switches combined with TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking) provide millisecond-level response capabilities for smart manufacturing. Enterprises enhance product compatibility and ecosystem openness through modular design and open API interfaces, meeting the needs of cross-brand device collaboration.
