Description
Add this powerful 16-channel PoE+ switch to expand your network security system. Whether you wish to add more distance to your IP security cameras or simply wish to minimize the cabling, this PoE switch is an ideal solution. It provides power and video transmission the exact same way a Network Video Recorder (NVR) does. Simply connect the PoE switch to your router, plug it in, and connect your IP cameras.
Features
What is a PoE switch?
First and foremost, a PoE switch can incorporate additional cameras to your NVR if you have additional channels open. For instance, a 32-channel NVR only has 16 built in PoE ports on the back. So by adding a PoE switch, you will be able to incorporate the remaining 16 channels into your security camera system. A secondary use of a PoE switch is that it can help you extend the distance of your IP cameras from your NVR.
Powerful 220W PoE+ switch
Typical IP security cameras (class 3) require around 13 watts of power to operate. Select IP cameras such as Pan-Tilt-Zoom cameras (class 4) however, require additional power to operate (around 25 watts). This means that a standard PoE switch, which only provides a maximum of 15-watts of power from the PoE port, won't have enough power to control the PTZ functions.
Expand The Distance
Typically, the maximum distance you can install an IP camera from an NVR is 300ft / 92m. This distance can be expanded significantly by running an ethernet cable from your router to a PoE switch up to 300ft away.

I don't know the technical value, but it reliably does just what we want it to do for our outdoor cameras installed by Best Buy. Its slim enough to hang on the wall behind a drawer.
