Application Advantages of Industrial POE Switch in Security Monitoring System

POE (Power Over Ethernet) refers to the existing Ethernet Cat 5 Without any change to the cabling infrastructure, while transmitting data signals for some IP based terminals (such as IP phones, wireless LAN access points AP, webcams, etc.), it can also provide DC power supply technology for such devices. POE technology can ensure the safety of the existing structured cabling while ensuring the normal operation of the existing network, and minimize the cost.

During the installation, commissioning and later maintenance of the security monitoring system project, experienced engineers will find that 80% of the equipment's abnormal operation or failure is related to the power supply. Or further, on the premise that cameras and hard disk recorders are properly configured, 90% of maintenance failures are caused by power supply problems. The power supply of the camera in the security monitoring system is the premise to ensure the normal and reliable operation of the monitoring equipment. How to reasonably arrange the power supply of the monitoring system is very important in the video monitoring system.

The application of industrial PoE switch in the security monitoring system has the advantages of simplified wiring, energy saving, flexibility, safety and convenience. As we all know, in addition to transmitting video signals through network cables, general webcams must also provide sufficient power for them around the clock. In actual construction, it is often necessary to redesign the installation site of the camera due to the inability to provide a stable power supply. In this way, the redesign of the installation site may lead to monitoring dead space, making monitoring meaningless. By using the industrial POE switch for power supply, it is not limited by time, location and environment, and the networking mode is much more flexible. The camera can be installed at will.

Due to the particularity of the security monitoring system, from the perspective of industry technical specifications, it is generally required to provide independent dedicated power supply, that is, to lay cables from the general distribution box for the use of front-end cameras, infrared lights, and back-end monitoring center facilities. However, as we all know, 220V strong current is very dangerous. If the power supply cable is damaged, it is easy to leak electricity. The power supply of the industrial PoE switch is relatively safe. It provides a stable 48V DC voltage. Moreover, the network managed industrial poe switch can only supply power to the equipment that needs power supply. Only when the terminal equipment that needs power supply is connected, there will be voltage on the port, thus eliminating the risk of electric leakage on the line, and it is safe and reliable.

At the same time, another advantage of using the managed industrial poe switch for power supply is energy saving. For example, when the temperature is low, the power of an infrared ball machine can reach the maximum of 30W when the heating function is turned on, and the maximum power under normal conditions is 24W. Our managed industrial poe switch will automatically adjust the power supply according to the operating conditions of the ball machine. The power can be automatically adjusted according to the power supply equipment, and the power supply plan can be set at any time and at any port to facilitate the intelligent power supply of the link equipment. For example, it can automatically stop supplying power to terminals of designated ports during holidays and nights, not only saving energy, but also setting flexible usage in some situations.

In addition to intelligent power supply, our managed industrial poe switch also supports real-time monitoring and monitoring of the powered equipment. If any fault or abnormality is found, the power supply can be restarted, and the number of restarts and restart delay time can be set to ensure the stable operation of the normal equipment.

Summary: Industrial poe switches can also transmit power while transmitting data, which can not only simplify the construction process, reduce the installation cost, but also be safer. Industrial POE switches are widely loved by security monitoring engineers for their high performance, simple and convenient use, simple management, convenient networking, and low construction cost.
