The HiSource Standard PoE Switch is engineered to provide power and data connectivity to multiple PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, making it an essential tool for expanding network infrastructure in businesses, schools, and other settings requiring centralized control and power distribution.
Key Features:
- Power over Ethernet: Delivers Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities to simplify the deployment of network devices by transmitting both power and data through a single Ethernet cable.
- Multiple Ports: Available with varying numbers of ports to support a range of devices, typically from 8 to 24 ports, depending on network size and needs.
- Auto-Sensing Technology: Automatically detects the power requirements of connected PoE devices to provide appropriate power allocation without manual settings.
- Energy Efficiency: Incorporates energy-saving features that reduce power consumption when ports are not in use or connected devices are turned off.
- Rugged Design: Built with a durable metal casing that withstands rigorous use in high-traffic areas and supports rack-mount installation.
Technical Specifications:
- PoE Standard: Supports IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at standards for up to 30 watts per port.
- Network Interface: Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) or Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) ports, tailored to the specific model.
- Power Budget: Total PoE power budget can range from 120W to 370W, depending on the switch model and capabilities.
- Switching Capacity: Provides sufficient backplane bandwidth to handle traffic without network bottlenecks.
- Cooling System: Fan-less design in smaller models for silent operation, and active cooling in higher-capacity models.
- Management Features: Basic configuration options for network management, including VLAN support for traffic segmentation.
Ideal Use Cases:
- Small to Medium-sized Businesses: Facilitates reliable network connectivity and power supply for office devices and communication tools.
- Educational Facilities: Powers classroom technology and surveillance systems to enhance security and learning environments.
- Hospitality Industry: Supports a range of services such as Wi-Fi access points, IP surveillance cameras, and guest communication systems.
- Healthcare Institutions: Ensures continuous operation of critical networked medical devices and patient monitoring systems.
