High-quality industrial grade PoE switch essentials

As the saying goes, monitoring equipment is developed by industrial-grade PoE switches, and support for industrial-grade PoE switches is essential in the surveillance industry. In the past, installation of monitoring equipment was cumbersome and expensive. While increasing manpower costs, it also increased the maintenance and operation costs, and the installation of places such as traffic, buildings, offices, and shopping malls that were affected by heavy line layout. Since industrial grade PoE switches have been implemented, high-quality and stable transmissions can be realized, and simplification is achieved, making the entire monitoring project more convenient.

It differs from ordinary switches in that it can transmit information and power simultaneously. POE (Power Over Ethernet) does not make any changes under the existing Ethernet Cat.5 cabling infrastructure, and it can also improve the power of the equipment for some devices based on IP terminals.

Industrial PoE switch

We need to understand some technical indicators when selecting high-quality industrial-grade PoE switches. In this way, we can more effectively select satisfactory monitoring switches. Hereafter, Xiao Bian sums up some experiences for everyone to share their personal opinions and hopes to help everyone.

1. Since the industrial PoE switch has this power supply performance, we need enough power equipment when selecting, so as to avoid power shortage, the power supply of the POE switch must be greater than the total power of the monitoring equipment.

2. The POE switch has the af standard and the at standard. At has a higher power supply than the af. In the general case, the at-standard is compatible with the af standard, and it is better to support the at-standard.

3. Although the industrial PoE switch is 100 meters, if the surveillance camera is far away, we can also choose the 250 meters POE switch.

4. The transmission rate of industrial-grade PoE switches has hundreds of megabytes, gigabits, and other options. If the monitoring project and picture quality requirements are particularly high, Gigabit should be selected and 100 megabytes will be mistakenly selected. I elaborate on it!

5. The quality of the images to be monitored is smooth and clear. The bandwidth of industrial-grade PoE switches needs to be particularly large. Selecting a device with a high backplane bandwidth is a relatively cost-effective thing.

6. Monitored cameras often need to be installed outdoors, and the environmental adaptability of poe switches has become an important indicator. Good environmental adaptability not only improves the life of equipment, but also reduces maintenance costs.

Choosing a high-quality industrial-grade PoE switch can greatly improve the monitoring requirements. Today, with the rapid development of social economy, the installation of monitoring equipment not only ensures people’s desire for security, but also prevents the possibility of illegal events.
