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.

The GSW-2824P adopts not only Power over Ethernet technology, but also automated PD monitoring and real-time PoE status.

The PD alive check feature is applied in Standard, VLAN and Extend modes. After the PoE of the port is powered on, the device starts to detect whether the port is transmitting data. If the port does not transmit data and the duration exceeds a specific time, PoE will automatically power off and then re-power. It also will greatly enhance the network reliability in that the PoE port will reset the PD power, thus reducing administrator’s management burden.

Particularly designed for the growing popular IP Surveillance applications, the GSW-2824P 802.3at PoE Switch is positioned as a Surveillance Switch for quick and easy PoE IP camera deployment with power feeding. The GSW-2824P provides both 802.3at and 802.3af PoE functions along with 24 10/100/1000BASE-TX ports featuring 32-watt 802.3at PoE in RJ45 interface, 2 extra Gigabit copper ports and 2 Gigabit SFP combo interfaces supporting high-speed transmission of surveillance images and videos.

Flexible Extension Solution

The two SFP ports built in the GSW-2824P are compatible with the 1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber transceiver, uplinked to

backbone switch and monitoring center in long distance. The distance can be extended from 550 meters (multi-mode fiber) to 10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120

kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications within the enterprise data centers and distributions
