Please allow ~4-6 weeks to dispatch from Australia for quality control. Only 4 devices per customer may be shipped each day, so orders placed for more than 4 devices will be shipped over multiple days.
Products containing Lithium-Ion batteries (laptops and smartphones) are subject to extra safety requirements and are experiencing further delays.
If you are ordering a device that does not include a Windows 11 licence as standard, please check Microsoft's minimum system requirements to confirm if it can be upgraded later should you wish to do so.

Refurbished Alloy APS-24T6SFP 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch
Professional Layer 2+ managed switch from Australian brand Alloy Computer Products — 24 PoE+ Gigabit ports, 6 SFP uplinks, 250W PoE budget, and enterprise management features from $89 inc-GST with a 12-month warranty from Reboot IT.
Why Choose the Alloy APS-24T6SFP?
- 24 PoE+ Gigabit Ports: IEEE 802.3at delivers up to 30W per port for IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras across 20 dedicated + 4 combo RJ45 ports.
- Six SFP Uplinks: Four combo RJ45/SFP ports plus two dedicated SFP uplinks provide flexible copper-or-fibre backbone connectivity and future expansion paths.
- 250W Total PoE Budget: Sufficient power for mixed PoE deployments — supports roughly 8 high-power (30W) devices or up to 16 standard PoE phones simultaneously.
- Full Layer 2+ Management: SNMP v1/v2c/v3, Web GUI, CLI, comprehensive VLAN support, STP/RSTP/MSTP, and LACP link aggregation for enterprise-grade network control.
- 52 Gbps Switching Fabric: Non-blocking 52Gbps capacity with 38.69Mpps forwarding ensures wire-speed performance even under heavy network load.
- Australian Brand + Local Support: Made by Alloy Computer Products — an established Australian networking brand with proven SMB track record and local support availability.
Performance in Business Networks
The APS-24T6SFP is built for SMB environments that rely on PoE devices throughout their office. A typical deployment might run 12 PoE IP phones at 6–8W each, four wireless access points at 15W each, and two IP cameras at 12W each — all within the 250W budget while maintaining Gigabit speeds across all ports.
Network administrators appreciate the full management suite: Web GUI for day-to-day VLAN and port configuration, CLI for scripting and batch changes, and SNMP for integration with existing monitoring platforms like PRTG or SolarWinds. The four combo ports offer a practical migration path from copper to fibre as bandwidth needs grow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this switch power 24 devices at full 30W simultaneously?
No — the 250W budget limits simultaneous full-power operation. It supports approximately 8 devices at 30W each, or a larger mix of lower-draw devices like IP phones (6–8W each).
Do the combo ports support copper and fibre at the same time?
No — each combo port operates as either RJ45 or SFP at a time. You choose the interface per port based on your infrastructure. PoE+ is available when using RJ45 mode.
Is this compatible with third-party SFP modules?
Yes — the SFP ports accept standard MSA-compliant modules from major manufacturers supporting 100Mbps and 1Gbps speeds on both single-mode and multi-mode fibre.
What management platforms does it work with?
SNMP v1/v2c/v3 support ensures compatibility with PRTG, SolarWinds, Nagios, and other standard network monitoring tools for performance and status tracking.
What warranty is included?
Every Alloy APS-24T6SFP includes a 12-month parts and labour warranty from Reboot IT, covering all ports, PoE circuitry, and management functions.

Refurbished Computers - Cosmetic Grading Guide
Our supplier's refurbished hardware is typically graded either "Excellent" or "Good", however, some legacy products were graded under a letter grading system (A, B, C). Please find the definitions for each grade below and contact us if you're uncertain of a device's grade.
Used Smartphone / Refurbished Mobile Phones
"Excellent" Grade
Devices in this category appear like new, with very minor wear. Expect light or fine scratches on the screen that are shallow enough not to catch on a fingernail. The edge around the glass is virtually flawless, save for possible light scratching around the power port. The back plate may show light/fine scratches, including on the Apple logo, with any discoloration being minimal.
"Good" Grade
These devices are characterized by being fully tested and functional even if they have body scratches, minor paint chips, or a small hairline crack on the screen. Screens are free from dead pixels but may exhibit slight scratching from moderate use.
Refurbished Desktops, Laptops and Monitors
"Excellent" Grade - Laptops
Reserved for units that show barely any signs of previous use, these laptops may exhibit very minor scuffing or abrasions, associated only with minimal standard use. The keyboards show light wear, and importantly, the screens are pristine, free from any scratches, cracks, chips, dead pixels, dark spots, discoloration, or blemishes.
"Excellent" Grade - Desktops
Desktop PCs in the "Excellent" grade category are free from deep scratches, cracks, paint chips, or any broken/missing pieces, ensuring a sleek and almost-new aesthetic.
"Excellent" Grade - Monitors
"Excellent" grade is reserved for units that show evidence of very little to no previous use. Any wear on an "Excellent" Display, including housing/frame and/or external surfaces (i.e. Frame) is associated with standard minimal use. "Excellent" units may have minor scuffing and / or minor abrasions on plastics with from standard light previous use."Excellent" Displays will feature no scratches, cracks, chips, dead pixels, dark spots, discoloration or blemishes. Units will only feature the standard minimal wear and tear that is associated with a used unit.
"Good" Grade - Laptops
"Good" laptops may feature one or several small dings or dents on covers and / or small paint chips on the surface or small hairline cracks in the bezel. Laptop screens may feature uneven light diffusion in screen and may feature subtle blemishes. "Good" Laptops will not feature cracks screens but may feature slight scratching, dead pixels or white spots on the screen.
"Good" Grade - Desktops
"Good" grade desktops may have light scratches on external body and may feature more excessive unit housing and/or external case wear than "Excellent" units, including wear on case / lid. "Good" PCs may feature one or several small dings or dents on covers and / or small paint chips on the surface.
"Good" Grade - Monitors
Displays in the "Good" grade have been fully tested and are functional but may include scratches on body, small paint chips, minor cracks on body, loose and/or wobbly bases. "Good" Display screens may feature uneven light diffusion in screen and may feature subtle to moderate blemishes. "Good" Displays will not feature cracks on screens but may feature slight scratching on screen surfaces from moderate use or wear, dead pixels or white spots on the screen.
