1.2 Product Description
Centralized Power Management for Gigabit Ethernet PoE Networking
To facilitate high power PoE network applications with Gigabit speed transmission,
the 802.3at PoE+ Switch features high-performance Gigabit IEEE 802.3af
PoE (up to 15.4W) and IEEE 802.3at High-power PoE (up to 30.8W)
capabilities on all ports. By offering reliable switching technology and advanced
networking features, the 802.3at PoE+ Switch optimizes the installation and power
management of network devices such as wireless access points (AP), VoIP phones,
and security video cameras. It also eliminates time and cost of deployment by
integrating power and data switching into one unit, and freeing network devices
from restrictions of power outlet locations and the additional AC wiring.
Perfect Integration Solution for PoE IP Surveillance
The 802.3at PoE+ Switch brings an ideal, secure surveillance system at a lower
total cost. The 802.3at PoE+ Switch provides 16/24 10/100/1000Mbps 802.3at
PoE ports able to feed sufcient PoE power for 14 IEEE 802.3af / 7 IEEE 802.3at
PoE IP cameras at the same time. It is also able to connect with one 16-channel
NVR or two 8-channel NVR systems, uplinked to the backbone switch and the
monitoring center. With such high-performance switch architecture, the recorded
video les from the PoE IP cameras can be saved in the NVR system to enable the
administrators to control and monitor the surveillance images both in the local LAN
and the remote sites.
Energy-saving Design
The 802.3at PoE+ Switch uses new engine that incorporates two advanced Green
Networking technologies:
Idle Mode Link Down power saving
Intelligent Scales Power based on cable length
The Idle Mode Link Down power saving of the 802.3at PoE+ Switch complies with
IEEE 802.3az Energy Efcient Ethernet (EEE) standard to automatically lower
power for a given port when it is not linked. The Intelligent Scale Power technology
actively determines the appropriate power level based on the cable length. When
connecting to the 802.3at PoE+ Switch with Ethernet cable shorter than 20m, a
device can obtain maximum power saving because the 802.3at PoE+ Switch would
automatically detect the Ethernet cable length and reduce power usage. The
connected device can substantially reduce the overall power consumption, which
makes a signicant contribution to energy saving.
Easy Installation and Cable Connection
Providing data transfer and High Power PoE in one unit, the 802.3at PoE+ Switch
is able to reduce the need of extended cables and electrical outlets on the wall,

7
ceiling or any unreachable place. It helps to lower the installation costs and
simplify the installation effort. All RJ45 copper interfaces of the 802.3at PoE+
Switch support 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation for optimal speed detection
through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cables. It also supports standard auto-MDI/
MDI-X that can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet device without
requiring special straight-through or crossover cables.
Flexible Extension Solution (GSW-2620HP only)
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the GSW-2620HP are compatible with the
1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) ber transceiver to uplink
to backbone switch and monitoring center in long distance. The distance can be
extended from 550 meters (multi-mode ber) to 10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120
kilometers (single-mode ber or WDM ber). They are well suited for applications
within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
