Reliable 16 Channel PoE Switch for Cost-Effective Security & Office Networks
If you’re setting up a surveillance system or expanding a small business network, this 16 channel PoE switch gives you what you need without overspending. It delivers power and data over a single Ethernet cable to up to 16 cameras or access points, each port supporting up to 25.4W – enough for most PTZ cameras and high-power APs. The total PoE budget of 200W means you can run a dozen or more devices without worrying about overload.
What sets this switch apart is its practical flexibility. A simple DIP switch lets you toggle between standard 100m mode and an extended 250m mode. In extend mode, ports 1–16 run at 10 Mbps but reach up to 250m over existing Cat5 cable – a real lifesaver when your camera is on the far end of a parking lot or warehouse aisle. At the same time, the switch isolates those ports from each other, cutting down broadcast storms and letting only the uplink ports talk to them. That’s a neat trick for reducing noise on a surveillance VLAN.
It’s built for real-world environments: metal case, natural heat dissipation, wide temperature range (-20°C to 60°C). No complex configuration – just plug in your devices and the switch auto-negotiates speed, duplex, and MDI/MDI-X. The internal power supply keeps the setup tidy, and you can mount it on a desk, wall, or 19-inch rack. Whether you’re a managed service provider deploying for a retail chain or an IT admin for a mid-sized office, this 16 channel PoE switch simplifies your job.
