This is a managed switch with PoE at half the price of the unmanaged one you linked. The use cases are completely different. Most people are going to use the switch in this post for PoE camera systems.
yup, i have this switch powering some 100' Ethernet POE cameras and it works fine.

also, got the 123 watt version for $80 on sale a while back.

Should be fine. Switch shouldn't send power to non poe device. Additionally you can disable poe altogether on those ports via the management interface.
thank you

If the "endpoints" have 2.5g nics, why wouldn't they see a benefit? Wifi 6e APs are starting to ship with 2.5gb ports and wireless speeds regularly exceed a gigabit now.
Depending on what you are doing, for 99.99%, there will be no difference in your online experience. Having a lot of bandwidth into the house and spreading it out from there shared on down the line among a lot of heavy users (actual heavy users, not a family all browsing the web, working from home, and watching movies like depicted in the commercials which is well within a shared 250-1GB connection) is the use case but having full 2.5-10GB to each device is overkill and expensive. 2.5GB ethernet is a strange mid point "standard" and priced out of whack. At that point and if needed, I wouldn't be using the cheapest 2.5GB and "home" routers anyway. Getting off topic here but a lot of professional office environments that relay on real time IP phones and IP video conferencing in room or at the desk and have cloud based systems (no servers even on premises) can run 75+ people on two 1GB internet connections. Bandwidth plays an obvious role but a large factor is the equipment and the stability. I think a lot of people that may have problems assume it is bandwidth related and more would solve the problem.
Just my 0.02 and viewpoint. Do as you need and want.

Getting off topic here but a lot of professional office environments that relay on IP phones and IP video conferencing in room or at the desk and have cloud based systems (no servers even on premises) can run 50+ people on two 1GB internet connections. Bandwidth plays an obvious role but a large factor is the equipment and the stability.

2.5g nics and switches are priced pretty reasonably now and in most cases don't even need upgraded cables. I got a switch and 4 nics for under $150. I agree that normal users won't see much benefit, but if you have a fast-storage NAS you can absolutely benefit - i move a bunch of isos and large files on my networks, and i think many in the enthusiast space are getting to that point now.

Quote from beaver.bandit :
Question for folks using this with POE cameras. Does anyone have a system in place to stop recording or power to indoor cameras when you're home? My thought would be something like a push button from Aqara to trigger a script to cut power to specific ports on the POE switch, but is that even possible? Or is something possible with RroLink scenes?

I haven't looked into it much but home assistant does have a unifi integration with poe port control. In theory you could set up a automation to turn off the ports depending on a presence detection.
