PoE+ for the easiest possible installation
With its built-in PoE+ power supply, this device can power even the most power-hungry IP cameras on the market directly via the network cable. This means a simplified one-cable installation with video and power running in the same place. PoE+ also provides more stable operation of less power-hungry cameras thanks to the large power buffer. All channels support PoE+, so you don't have to worry about where to plug in a particular camera, just plug it in and everything runs smoothly.
Cable diagnostics with unique cable length measurement
To keep full track of all cables, there is a built-in diagnostics function. It allows you to check in real time that the connection is correct and that network traffic is flowing smoothly. If a cable is damaged, the switch can show you where the break is on the cable, making troubleshooting much easier. The diagnostics also provide the ability to restart IP cameras that support the Onvif protocol, which all our AVTECH cameras do. This can be very convenient if a camera locks up or needs to be restarted after an update, for example.
Surge protection against harmful power surges
To protect your surveillance equipment, the device is equipped with a surge protector. It can save your cameras in case of lightning strikes, uneven voltage or actual power spikes. Since a power surge can destroy electronic equipment, this is a cheap insurance policy.
Exclusive map features for easy overview
The switch has a built-in map function where you can add three different types of maps depending on how your system looks. One is a topological map that shows how switches and surveillance cameras are connected. The second is an overview map of, among other things, floor plan and direct camera location. For really large systems, there is also an option to put camera locations on a map via Google maps.
Easy administration of VLANs
The PoE switch's topological view makes it easy to create smart VLAN groups. A VLAN or virtual local area network is ideal if cameras in different buildings need to be separated, for example in buildings with different tenants. For example, cameras in building A can belong to VLAN 2 and cameras in building B to VLAN 3. In this case, building A and building B are virtually separated even though they share the same physical network.
Automatic recognition of Onvif cameras
The PoE switch software makes it easy to see which cameras are connected, and at the touch of a button you can see all the necessary information. You can find out the make, IP address and MAC address for easy overview of connected cameras. This is particularly useful for larger systems with many connected cameras.
