2. Introduction
GV-APOE0400 is a 6-port 10/100 Mbps unmanaged PoE Switch with 4 PSE/PoE ports and 2
uplink ports. The switch supports IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet standard, with up to 32
W per port and a maximum power consumption of 65 W. In addition to not requiring special
network cables for connecting your powered devices (PD), such as IP cameras, its CCTV
mode also allows power supply over cables of up to 250 m (820 ft) in length, at 10 Mbps.
3. Front Panel
The front panel consists of 6 10/100 Mbps ports, 4 PoE and 2 uplink, LED indicators and the
DIP switch.
Note: If any of these items is found missing or damaged, please contact your local
supplier for replacement.

3.2 DIP Switch
The DIP switch can switch on/off the CCTV mode of the system, as explained below:
[Default Mode] The CCTV mode is switched off by default, in which power can be supplied
through the 4 PoE ports over cables of up to 100 m (328 ft) with a network bandwidth of 100
Mbps per port.
[CCTV Mode] Allows power supply over cables of up to 250 m (820 ft) in length, but at the
expense of reducing the network bandwidth of the 4 PoE ports to 10 Mbps per port.
4. Rear Panel
The AC power socket for powering the system is located at the rear panel and accepts power
input from 100 to 240 V at 50/60 Hz.
Note: After switching on/off of the CCTV mode, the system must be restarted for the
change of mode to take effect.

5. Installation
Prior to installing the PoE switch, please note the following:
Only clean the switch when it is unplugged and with a dry cloth without involving any
liquids.
Do not place the switch near water or any damp area and prevent moisture from
entering the switch chassis.
Do not place the switch on an unstable surface where it may be severely damaged due
to a fall.
Ensure there is proper ventilation at the installation site and keep the ventilation of the
switch free of obstruction.
Make sure the operating voltage is consistent with as labeled on the switch.
Do not open the chassis during operation or when there are electrical hazards in
avoiding electric shocks.
5.1 Leveled Installation
To install the switch on a leveled surface, attach the four supplied rubber feet at the bottom
of the switch as illustrated and place it on a leveled surface.
Note: Make sure to leave at least 10 cm of space around the switch for adequate
ventilation.

5.2 Wall Mount Installation
For wall mount, make sure to prepare 2 screws of 4 mm in length and 5.5 ~ 7 mm in
diameter and prepare 2 screw anchors of matching size.
1. Drill two evenly-leveled holes on the desired wall that are 122 mm apart.
2. Hammer the two self-prepared screw anchors into the holes on the wall.
3. Insert the two-self prepared screws into the screw anchors and tighten to the point where
there are about 1.5 mm left hanging out, as illustrated.
4. Hang the GV-APOE0400 onto the screws with all 6 of its port pointing downward, as
illustrated.
5.3 Powering On the Switch
To power on the switch, connect it to a power source using the supplied AC power cord. The
device will respond as follow upon turning on:
The Power LED will be lit.
The DATA LED flashes momentarily, signaling system initiation.
Note: Make sure to leave at least 10 cm of space around the switch for adequate
ventilation.
