Cambridge Sound DSPoE24 Netgear 24 Port PoE Switch - 911.0716.900

Product Overview

The Cambridge Sound DSPoE24 is a Netgear 24-port PoE network switch, part number 911.0716.900, qualified for DynasoundPro networked sound masking deployments. It supplies Power over Ethernet and data connectivity to Dynasound system components from a single rack-mounted chassis. Using a vendor-qualified switch removes guesswork about PoE budgets and compatibility when commissioning a networked masking or eavesdropping-protection system.

Product Description

The DSPoE24 is the network backbone for DynasoundPro installations. It is compatible with the DSTS10 Touch Screen Interface, the DS3002 through DS3008 Music and Paging Interfaces, and DS8000 PoE Network Speaker Controllers that drive sound masking loudspeakers and eavesdropping-protection maskers. Each connected controller or interface receives both power and network data over a single category cable run, which simplifies cabling in ceilings and equipment rooms. Twenty-four ports give integrators capacity for multi-zone deployments spanning several floors or secure suites from one switch. Specifying the Cambridge-qualified Netgear unit ensures the PoE delivery and switching behavior match what Dynasound controllers expect. Pair it with DS8000 controllers, touch screens, and maskers from the Cambridge Sound collection at Creation Networks.

Key Features

• 24 PoE Ports — powers and networks up to 24 Dynasound devices from one chassis.
• DSTS10 Compatible — supports the Dynasound touch screen interface for system control.
• Music and Paging Interface Support — works with DS3002 through DS3008 interfaces.
• DS8000 Controller Ready — feeds PoE network speaker controllers driving masking loudspeakers and eavesdropping-protection maskers.
• Single-Cable Device Runs — PoE delivers power and data together, reducing conduit and electrical work.
• Vendor-Qualified Hardware — Netgear switch validated by Cambridge Sound for DynasoundPro systems.

Typical Applications

The DSPoE24 anchors networked sound masking in corporate offices, healthcare facilities, and multi-floor tenant fit-outs, and supports eavesdropping-protection masker networks in SCIFs and secure government facilities. It belongs in the equipment rack or IDF closet feeding DS8000 controllers and operator touch screens.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Dynasound devices does the DSPoE24 support?

It is compatible with the DSTS10 Touch Screen Interface, DS3002–DS3008 Music and Paging Interfaces, and DS8000 PoE Network Speaker Controllers.

Why use this switch instead of a generic PoE switch?

The DSPoE24 is the Netgear model qualified by Cambridge Sound for DynasoundPro systems, so PoE delivery and switching behavior are validated against the system's controllers and interfaces.

Can it serve secure-facility masking networks?

Yes. Through DS8000 controllers it supports eavesdropping-protection maskers used in SCIF and secure-room deployments.

How many devices can one switch support?

It provides 24 PoE ports, each able to power and network one Dynasound device.
