## PoE and capacity are the details that matter

A PoE switch with a small total power budget cannot run many cameras, however many ports it has. List the PoE budget in watts and the standard supported. Buyers of access points also look for speed ratings, coverage and management options. Honest numbers win repeat business.

## Cabling sells with the box

Many network orders also need patch cords, keystone jacks, panels and racks. Offer them alongside switches and routers, and describe the cable category and length precisely so the buyer receives what they expect.

## Stock by customer type

Small offices want a router and a small switch. Schools and hotels want PoE switches, many access points and structured cabling. Estates want robust switches for camera networks. Match your stock to the customers you serve.

## Common networking mistakes

Not stating the PoE budget, confusing gigabit and fast ethernet ports, and leaving out SFP uplinks. Each affects whether the product suits the project.

## A typical scenario

A supplier adds PoE switches with clear wattage budgets and receives repeat requests from camera installers. Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named vendor.

## Common mistakes

Listing models you do not hold. Vague titles. Skipping specs.

## Quick checklist

Pick three lines. Write clear titles. Add photos. Submit for review.
