DrayTek VigorSwitch P1282 28-Port PoE Gigabit Ethernet Switch

The VigorSwitch P1282 is the PoE model of DrayTek's 1282-class business switch — the choice when the network cable should carry power as well as data. Feed VigorAP access points, IP phones and cameras from the comms cabinet with no local power sockets required, simplifying installs and tidying cable runs.

It installs in a rack with the included kit or sits on a shelf on its rubber feet, and joins the DrayTek managed ecosystem: routers such as the Vigor 2767 control VigorSwitch devices directly, and VigorACS manages whole estates. If nothing on the LAN needs powering, the non-PoE VigorSwitch G1282 saves money. Full port and PoE-budget details are available on request.

Frequently asked questions

What can PoE power?

Devices that accept Power over Ethernet — typically wireless access points, IP phones and IP cameras — which then need only a network cable, not a local power socket.

What is the PoE budget?

Contact us with the devices you plan to power and we will confirm the P1282's per-port and total PoE budget against your load before you order — sizing the budget correctly is the key to a reliable PoE deployment.

Is it rack-mountable?

Yes — a rack-mount kit is included, along with rubber feet for desktop use, a UK IEC power cord and a quick start guide.

Can it be managed centrally?

Yes — compatible Vigor routers include a VigorSwitch controller, and VigorACS manages DrayTek estates across sites.
