PoE Applications

The switches support all commonly used PoE standards, ensuring broad compatibility with connected devices. In addition, up to 95W of power can be achieved on a single port, allowing even more power-hungry devices to be powered directly over the network cable.

With the ability to set PoE limits on individual ports, the entire system can be optimized more efficiently and the available power can be better managed. While some devices are rated in power class 8, real-world measurements often show that their power consumption does not exceed, for example, 40 W. Setting a precise limit in the switch configuration frees up the remaining power for other connected devices, increasing the overall efficiency of PoE power in the network.

The switches support detection on both pairs, providing more reliable detection of connected devices. They also feature integrated IP watchdogs that automatically restart PoE power in the event of device unavailability, helping to quickly restore functionality without the need for manual intervention.

If the camera is placed at a distance of around 100 m, there is a voltage drop on the line that can affect its proper operation. In case a power supply with output voltage regulation is not available, it is advisable to use a step-up converter. This will provide voltage stabilization and create a stable 56 V from approximately 44-57.6 V, improving the reliability of the PoE power supply.
