Usage And Configuration Of Industrial POE Switches

The industrial poe switch can supply power to the POE terminal equipment such as wireless AP, webcam, network telephone, handheld computer, etc. through the network cable. The transmission distance can reach 100m, and the installation is simple, plug and play. It is suitable for smart cities, security monitoring and other industries. The industrial POE switch port supports an output power of 15.4W or 30W, which conforms to the IEEE802.3af/802.3at standard. It supplies power to the standard POE terminal equipment through network cable, without additional power wiring. The POE Industrial Switch conforming to IEEE802.3at can achieve 30W of port output power and 25.4W of power available to the receiving equipment.

The industrial POE switch is an industrial Ethernet switch that supports the power supply of the network cable, that is, it can realize the data transmission function of the industrial switch and also supply power to the network terminal at the same time. While transmitting data signals, it can also provide DC power supply technology for equipment. Industrial POE switch technology can ensure the stability of the existing structured cabling while ensuring the normal operation of the existing network, and greatly reduce costs.

How to use industrial POE switch

The standard industrial poe switch will first provide a low-voltage detection terminal device to check whether it supports the poe device before power supply. If not, it will not supply power. If not, it will gradually increase the voltage to complete the power supply, so it can ensure the stable connection and operation of the network system. The following are the steps to use a simple industrial poe switch.

1. Connect the ADSL cable to any port of the industrial Ethernet switch;

2. Set one of the notebooks, IP (or other), subnet mask setting, and select the default. No other information is required;

3. After establishing a link with the broadband connection provided by the system, right-click the link and select Advanced Sharing. After dialing, this computer can connect to the network;

4. Computer Internet settings: The subnet mask is default when IP settings are set. For gateway settings, use one computer to run cmd, enter IPCONFIG/ALL to view DNS, and then fill in the dns of the second computers.

How to configure the industrial POE switch

Industrial POE switches are divided into managed industrial POE switches and unmanaged industrial POE switches. The unmanaged industrial POE switches are specially designed to meet the power supply of poe, and plug and play does not require configuration. Unmanaged industrial POE switch with mode switch also supports standard switching, video monitoring and VLAN isolation, which can adapt to various complex environments.

The managed industrial POE switch provides a variety of network management methods based on the terminal control interface (Console), based on Web pages, and supporting Telnet remote login network. First of all, there should be a configuration line for the industrial switch. The original industrial POE switch connection line is usually a console line connected to the industrial switch, and the other is a serial port connected to the computer and connected to the two male and female lines. Now it can be directly connected with the network cable, because there is a special reserved management network port.

Therefore, network management personnel can monitor the working status and network operation status of the industrial POE switch locally or remotely in real time, and manage the working status and working mode of all switch ports globally. The managed industrial POE switch supports SNMP protocol, which is composed of a set of simple network communication specifications. It can complete all basic network management tasks, has little demand for network resources and has some security mechanisms. The working mechanism of SNMP protocol is very simple. It mainly realizes the exchange of network information through various types of messages.

This article briefly introduces how to use the industrial poe switch and how to configure it. Pay attention not to select non-standard industrial PoE switches. In order to save costs, non-standard PoE switches usually have no PoE switch control chip inside. No matter whether the IP terminal supports PoE switches or not, it will supply power to it, which is likely to burn the network interface, so there are certain security risks.
