This is an unmanaged switch but your router should have a DHCP scope to assign IP's to your internal network. if you're using static IP's just make sure you put it on the right subnet and you should be fine to assign ip's to your computers or Cameras.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, this switch would work for POE security cameras setup via static IP and for PCs using dynamic and/or static IPs. Just be aware that only half of the ports are POE. So you will have 4 POE ports and 3 non POE ports available for devices after you use one non POE port as a connection to your router.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, when you plug the switch into your network. It doesn't care what you plug in and configure on it. You will have to set the static ip in each camera. For example: if you have a four port router and your local ip is 192.168.1.1 Each device plugged in would be 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3, 192.168.1.4 But when you plug in a switch it will just expand your ip addresses 192.168.1.5, 6,7,8 and so on for each of those ports on the switch. In your ip camera you can set it to a specific ip, making it static. I for example set my printer static to 192.168.1.111 because I don't expect to have 110 devices on my home network. Although if I do, 111 is already taken. I think I can have 255 connections on 192.168.1.x
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it has 12 - 14 ports that the line can come into and feed your users or more importantly your user's devices(printers, laptops, etc...) It auto detects so you should usually not have to do much "configuration"
