10-Port Megabit PoE Network Switch

Q: When should I choose this over the gigabit version?

When distance is the problem and bandwidth is not. If a camera sits far beyond a normal cable run, extender mode reaching 250 m solves something a gigabit switch cannot. If instead you are running several high-bitrate 8MP cameras over short runs, the gigabit model is the better fit.

Q: Will 10/100 ports handle 8MP cameras?

A small number at sensible bitrates, yes; a full set streaming at high bitrate is where the 100 Mbps ceiling starts to show, and the uplinks on this model are also 10/100. If you want long reach and a gigabit path back to the recorder, look at the version with gigabit uplinks. We will size it against your actual camera settings rather than the headline resolution.

Q: Does extender mode need any special cable?

Cat5 or higher is what the specification calls for, and the quality of the run matters more at extended distance than it does over short lengths. Poor terminations that pass on a 30 m run will cause problems at 250 m. We test long runs before commissioning for that reason.

Q: Can it sit outdoors near the camera?

Only inside a proper weatherproof enclosure. IP30 protection covers solid objects rather than rain, so it is not suitable for direct exposure. Many long-run installations do exactly this — a sealed box at a mid-point on the property with the switch inside.

About the 10-Port Megabit PoE Network Switch

Reach is what this switch is for. Extender mode, selected with the built-in CCTV mode switch, pushes transmission out to 250 m on Cat5 or better cable, which solves the gate camera or the far corner of a plot that sits well past a normal run. The trade-off is throughput: the PoE ports are 10/100, backed by 2 Gbps switching capacity and a 1.488 Mpps forwarding rate, so this is not the switch for a dense bank of high-bitrate 8MP cameras. It runs from -20°C to +55°C and carries 4 KV lightning protection, which counts on exposed cabling.

Key benefits

Extender mode reaches up to 250 m on Cat5 or better, well past a standard run
Built-in CCTV mode switch dedicates the unit to camera traffic without configuration
Eight 802.3af/at PoE ports at up to 30 W each within a 100 W budget
Operating range of -20°C to +55°C copes with an unconditioned equipment cupboard
4 KV lightning protection guards against surges on long outdoor cable runs
LED indicators for power, link, PoE and extender status simplify fault finding

Where it works well

Gate camera at the far end of a large plot
Farmhouse on Bedian Road with unusually long cable runs
Boundary wall cameras sitting beyond standard Ethernet distance
Warehouse yard where trenching a second cable route is impractical
Society entrance camera far from the guardroom equipment cabinet
