Ideal for IP Surveillance—Up to 250 m Transmission

With extend mode, the PoE transmission distance reaches up to 250 m**—perfect for IP Camera deployment in large areas.

**The speed of the ports in extend mode will downgrade to 10 Mbps. The actual transmission distance may vary due to power consumption of PoE-powered devices or the cable quality and type.

    One-Click Traffic Separation for Ports 1-16

    With one click, Isolation Mode easily divides traffic for ports 1–16 to avoid snooping and tampering. This enables the switch to isolate broadcast storm, improving LAN security and data transmission.

System Self-Healing
with PoE Auto Recovery

The switch automatically detects and reboots the PD devices, such as cameras and APs, when they fall offline or go unresponsive, guaranteeing the stable operation of PoE-connected devices, without need for manual monitoring and restart.

Intelligent Power Management to Prevent Power Overload

When your total power consumption exceeds 150 W, Intelligent Power Management automatically cuts lower priority ports’ power to ensure high-priority ports’ power supply. This protects the device from power overload operation. It also automatically detects the required PoE power for your device and protects your non-PoE equipment from being damaged.

Smooth HD Video Monitoring

2× gigabit RJ45 ports and 1× combo gigabit SFP slot ensure smooth streaming even when 16× HD IP cameras work simultaneously.
