Router with PoE+ recommendation for home use

Hi

Any cost effective recommendations for a router to get DNS and DHCP, with PoE+ port for home use, to connect R550 APs?

Thanks.

The ICX 7150-C series is what I'd recommend. We have a 12 and 8 port version, and they are fanless. They can do everything you're looking for.

The Lennar homes have an ICX-7150-C12P installed and R510s.

Hi Matt

Are there any other alternatives to the ICX? The way my house is configured, I need 2 switches with POE+. Instead of buying 2 switches, I am trying to get a router with POE+ to connect one R550 and then use the other switch with POE to connect other R550 or R510s. 

My budget is limited and trying to make this work.

If I am looking for ICX 7150, 8 port will it be - ICX 7150-C08?

Thanks.

BTW.. Matt, I saw your Youtube videos. Thanks. Very informative. Is there a way I can reach you so I can get the right gear for my home setup? Also for some reason, I am not getting email notification for new replies/posts.
