Yealink RCH240 24-Port L2+ Gigabit Managed Switch with Web-Based Management (1303228)
The RCH240 is a 24-port L2+ web-based managed switch purpose-built for high-performance, large-scale Yealink AV over IP environments. It provides 24x Gigabit RJ45 PoE+ ports and 4x Gigabit SFP fiber uplink ports, with a 370W total PoE+ budget that can power an entire fleet of Yealink MVC room systems, cameras, touch consoles, and microphone arrays simultaneously.
A 56 Gbps switching capacity easily handles multiple simultaneous 4K video streams, live audio feeds, and camera inputs without compromising quality, and the switch supports Yealink AV protocols alongside Dante and AES67 for interoperability with third-party Pro AV equipment. L2+ managed features, including VLAN (up to 4000 entries), multicast control, QoS, access control, DHCP, and 802.1x authentication, deliver enterprise-grade network management, while a durable metal chassis with integrated cooling fans ensures stable performance in demanding installations. It ships plug-and-play ready for Yealink MVC and VCH devices, with IGMP snooping enabled and EEE disabled by default. Before ordering, confirm the deployment's total device count and PoE power needs fall within the 370W budget across 24 ports.

What's Included
- RCH240 PoE+ Ethernet switch
- 3m power cable
- 1m CLI cable (RJ45, DB9)
- 4x silicone mats

Certifications and Compatibility
- Yealink MVC and VCH devices: plug-and-play ready.
- Yealink AVoIP: compatible with EN300/DE300 encoders and decoders.
- Dante and AES67: supported for third-party Pro Audio interoperability.
- Compatibility is limited to Yealink-published AV over IP components. Confirm current compatibility against the Yealink RCH80/RCH240 datasheet for your specific deployment.
Design Considerations
- Confirm the total device count and PoE power draw across the deployment fits within the 370W budget over 24 ports.
- Plan port allocation across the 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports and 4 SFP fiber uplinks for large-scale or multi-room installations.
- Use the L2+ managed features (VLAN, QoS, access control) to segment and prioritize AV traffic on the network.
- Plan for rack mounting and confirm rack space availability.
- For multi-room standardization, specify a consistent RCH240 deployment across every large-scale AVoIP installation, or the smaller RCH80 for individual rooms.
VideoConferenceGear.com Assistance
We can confirm the RCH240 is correctly sized for your deployment's device count and PoE power needs, and help plan port allocation across connected Yealink devices. We can advise on VLAN and QoS configuration for AV traffic prioritization, and confirm compatibility with your EN300/DE300 or MVC/VCH deployment. For multi-room and multi-site programs we can help decide between the RCH240 and the smaller RCH80 based on scale.
Common Questions
How is the RCH240 different from the RCH80?
The RCH240 has 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports and a 370W power budget for large-scale deployments, while the RCH80 has 8 ports and a 130W budget for smaller installations.
How much PoE power does it provide?
A total budget of 370W across its 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports.
Does it support Dante or AES67?
Yes, alongside Yealink's own AV protocols, for interoperability with third-party Pro Audio equipment.
