I am in need of a 220v Ethernet switch, for some reason I am not finding anything on Amazon. Everything I am finding all has a 110v power supply for a 12v power supply.

Normally Amazon is not my go to, but this is something I am needing ASAP.

Anyone have any insight on what to look for?
 
I'm not an engineer, but 12v is 12v. As long as the power supply is giving the proper output, and rated for the given input, it doesn't matter what the switch requires.

Here is a 100v-240v input, 12v output, power supply. I would be surprised if the power supply included with some switches isn't similar.


Why are you needing a 220v switch? And what are the other requirements for it?

Most switch mode power supplies (eg those big bricks in the middle of the power cable) support dual voltage input. If you look at the sticker on the power supply, you might already have a 220v compatible PSU.It usually says something like "110V - 240v"

Might it be smarter/easier to have a UPS with 220VAC input and 120VAC output, then reap the rewards of having most any network switch available as an option to choose from?

It’s needed to get a piece of equipment running. The OEM of the equipment is from overseas, and the only power in the cabinet is 220 with euro style recepticle.

Another option is using the appropriate C13 cord above with a 110v/240v to 12v power supply; then you could use any switch that required 12v.

Options are out there. You will just need to pay attention to the item details.

Almost any modern network equipment will run between 100-250v

In fact, 99.9999% (Dare I say 100%?) of rackmount switches will do 220v without issue, as datacenters typically have 208v

My Cisco small business switch says 100-240 V, 50-60 Hz. I never would have thunk it on my own!
