I need a non-managed 24-port Gig switch with rear facing ports & power (POE not required).

I haven't purchased Pakedge for so long my dealer account seems to have been suspended, SnapAV is backordered for a few weeks and I haven't tried any of their network stuff yet, I know Crestron makes them, but I'm not a dealer.

Any other options???

Sorry. Just call Pakedge. They lowered the price on a few of those items.

Netgear jgs524e mounted to rear rack rails?
Not a true managed switch, but has some management functions, QoS, VLAN

Pakedge or Snap is all I'm familiar with. Maybe Planet? I've used a few snap switches without any issues so far.

Crestron switches are both managed and PoE as well as very expensive. The 24port is in limited supply as they are disco'ing it. I would go with Pakedge. I am sure if you call they will reinstate you quickly.

Thanks guys... I thought maybe there was another manufacturer doing rear facing switches that I didn't know about.

Don't know if I would trust my entire system stability on anything Snap AV. Especially network wise. Sure they'll get you a speedy exchange, but they shouldn't have to exchange as often as they do.

How about any switch, mounted to the rear rails, or rear-facing on a shelf? If no rear rails, you could also consider 6" long rack rail mounted near the back. These may also help:
