Six real deployment scenarios matched to this model's actual datasheet specifications.
16-Port PoE Aggregation for a Full NVR Channel Bank16 PoE-enabled ports feed a full 16-channel NVR from a single 1U switch — power and connect an entire camera bank without splitting cabling across multiple small switches in the rack.
Priority Ports 1-8 Protect Half the Camera Bank Under LoadPorts 1-8 carry PoE power priority, so entrance, server-room or other critical cameras on those ports keep drawing power first if total demand approaches the 250 W budget across all 16 ports.
VLAN Secure Mode with PD Keepalive for Unattended Equipment RoomsFlip the front-panel switch to VLAN (Secure) mode so downlink ports can only reach the uplink — and let PD keepalive auto-reboot any camera that stops responding, cutting truck rolls to remote server rooms and wiring closets.
EXTEND Mode Reaches a 250 m Perimeter Camera From the Same RackFlip the same front-panel switch to EXTEND (surveillance mode) and push power plus data up to 250 m for a single gate, fence-line or driveway camera — no need for a separate mini switch or repeater beside the main rack.
Combo Uplink Bridges to a Fiber Core Switch Across BuildingsThe G1/SFP1 Combo port takes either an RJ45 copper run or an SFP fiber transceiver, so this rack switch can uplink over fiber to a core switch in another building while the dedicated G2 RJ45 port stays free for a local NVR or PC.
1U 19″ Chassis Fits Cleanly Beside NVRs in a Server CabinetAt 440×195×44 mm and 2.12 kg with standard 19-inch rack ears, the all-metal chassis mounts directly above or below an NVR in a server cabinet or wiring closet, drawing power from the built-in AC 100–240V supply — no external power brick to route.
