RCH40
Yealink RCH40 Room Cable Hub PoE Switch
The Yealink RCH40 is a compact PoE switch built to power the audio and video devices in a meeting room over the network cable. It offers four 10/100/1000 Mbps downlink ports and one Gigabit uplink, with up to 30W per port and a 90W total PoE budget. Its 100 x 100 x 23 mm body and PoE priority control suit meeting rooms in Doha offices and schools.
What the Yealink RCH40 does in a meeting room
The Yealink RCH40 is a Room Cable Hub: a compact Power over Ethernet switch that sits between your network and the audio and video devices in a meeting room. Instead of running a separate power cable to each device, you run one Ethernet cable from the RCH40 to each device, and the switch supplies power through that same cable. In rooms where ceilings, walls and cable trays are already crowded, that means fewer cables to plan and less clutter at the equipment point.
Ports, power budget and standards
The switch provides four 10/100/1000 Mbps downlink ports for end devices and one Gigabit Ethernet uplink port for the connection back to your network. It supports the 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards, with up to 30W available on each downlink port and a total PoE budget of 90W across the unit. PoE priority control is included so you can manage how that power is allocated when several devices are connected at once.
- Downlink: four 10/100/1000 Mbps ports
- Uplink: one Gigabit Ethernet port
- Power: up to 30W per port, 90W total budget
- Status: one LED for power state and one LED for PoE budget
Compact sizing and power supply
At 100 x 100 x 23 mm, the RCH40 has a small footprint, which helps where equipment cabinets and wall boxes are already crowded. The package contains the switch, a 48V 2A power supply and a quick start guide. When connected to a compatible Yealink VCH port, the RCH40 can use EasyConnect and receive power without its own adapter, which reduces the number of cables at the cabinet.
Before ordering, confirm the plug type and mains requirements of the supplied adapter with the SmartRooms Qatar team, because Qatar mains supply is 240 V at 50 Hz. The listed operating humidity range is 5% to 90%, but no operating temperature range is given. Ask us to confirm suitability before installing it in a warm equipment cupboard, since summer temperatures in Qatar can exceed 45°C.
Where it fits in Qatar
A six-seat meeting room in West Bay with a camera and a microphone needs both devices connected to one network point in the cabinet. The RCH40 carries power and data to each of them over Ethernet from a single location, keeping the wall and table neat. A clinic in Al Sadd setting up a room for video consultations with specialists abroad can use the same approach, with the switch placed in a ventilated cabinet. A government office in Msheireb fitting out several meeting rooms in one project can order identical units for every room under one purchase order.
Planning the installation
Measure the cable route from the switch to each device, and list which devices will draw power so you can compare them with the 30W per port and 90W total limits. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar lets our team check the room layout, cabinet space and cable routes before anything is installed. Send your room plan and device list to request a quote. Quotations are usually issued within one working day, and we supply to all eight municipalities of Qatar, with professional installation and support for purchase orders (LPOs).
