Features & Benefits

• 16‑Port PoE+ with Strong Power Delivery

Power up to 16 PoE devices simultaneously – IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones – without additional power injectors. Each port can deliver up to 30 W, and the full switch has a 150 W total PoE budget to efficiently distribute power.

• PoE Transmission over Long Distances

This also enables the switch, with Extend Mode, to provide both power and data at 250 m for CCTV cameras across large areas like warehouses or parking lots.

• Priority & Isolation Modes

Priority Mode: Ensures high‑priority ports (1–8) get bandwidth first for critical devices like security cameras.
Isolation Mode: Segregates traffic between ports to increase network security while reducing interference.

• PoE Auto Recovery

Automatically detects and restarts non-responsive PoE devices. In this way, your IP cameras and APs will keep going without manual intervention.

• Fanless Design

Runs quietly without fans – perfect for offices, homes, or noise-sensitive spaces.

• Plug & Play Simplicity

No configuration or setup is needed; it just connects and works out of the box. It’s ideal for non-technical people.
