Alongside the 24 gigabit copper ports there are four SFP slots that take an optical or copper SFP module. This lets you connect the switch to a server room or another building over fibre, which reaches much further than a standard network cable. L2 management lets you configure ports and control traffic instead of keeping every device in one flat segment.
IT administrators at small and mid-sized companies building a tidy office network in a rack; internet service providers, for whom the Metro Ethernet series was designed in the first place; and property managers linking the floors of an apartment block or office building to a central node over fibre.

The manufacturer does not specify whether modules are included. Keep in mind that the SFP slots need a suitable module, chosen by cable type and distance.
No, according to the manufacturer this model has no PoE. To power IP cameras and access points you need a PoE injector or a separate PoE switch.
The ports of a managed L2 switch are configured through a management interface, for example to split the network into segments. An unmanaged model simply forwards traffic with no settings.
