AMX Launches Gigabit Power-over-Ethernet Switch

Atlanta, GA (Vocus) September 23, 2010 -- AMX®, the leading provider of solutions that simplify the implementation, maintenance, and use of technology to create effective environments, today announced the NXA-ENET8PoE Gigabit Ethernet Switch. The installer-friendly Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) switch from AMX comes with 8 x 1000 Base-T ports and offers home and business owners a powerful Gigabit Ethernet network for voice, video and data applications. AMX will be showcasing the new PoE switch in booth #912 at CEDIA 2010, being held September 23-26 in Atlanta.
