Six real deployment scenarios matched to this model's actual datasheet specifications.
Two Independent Combo Uplinks for Dual-Link Redundancy or AggregationG1/SFP1 and G2/SFP2 each switch independently between RJ45 copper and SFP fiber, so you can run one link to a primary core switch and a second as a backup path — or point both toward the same core for extra uplink throughput — without adding a second switch or a media converter.
24-Port PoE Bank Still Fits a Full 24-Channel NVR in One 1U Switch24 individually-fed 100Mbps PoE ports mean a single 1U switch can power and cable an entire 24-camera deployment — useful for parking structures, retail chains or warehouse perimeters where a second switch would eat rack space and add another point of failure.
A 370 W Pool Comfortably Feeds a Realistic 24-Camera DeploymentMost installations mix a few 25–30 W PTZ or IR bullet cameras with a larger group of sub-10 W fixed cameras — under that realistic load, 370 W across 24 ports rarely gets tight; only plan around the 8 priority ports if every port might approach the 30 W ceiling at once (see Not a Good Fit below).
Priority Ports 1-8 Keep Your Most Important Cameras Powered FirstWhen aggregate PoE demand climbs toward the 370 W ceiling across 24 competing ports, ports 1-8 are served first — wire entrances, loading docks or server-room cameras there so those feeds are the last to lose power under load.
VLAN Secure Mode with PD Keepalive Fits Unattended Multi-Site RolloutsSlide the front-panel switch to VLAN (Secure) and all 24 downlink ports can reach only the uplinks; PD keepalive then auto-reboots any camera that stops sending data, cutting truck rolls as the number of remote sites and cameras per site both grow.
EXTEND Mode Still Reaches a 250 m Perimeter Camera Alongside the Dense BankThe same slide switch flips to EXTEND (surveillance mode) for up to 250 m of reach on a single port, so this 24-port switch can anchor a dense indoor camera bank and a distant gate or fence-line camera at the same time, all from one 440×245×44 mm 1U chassis (2.90 kg).
