4. caractéristiques du produit
- Integrated Industrial PoE Switch Module: Features 8 full Gigabit PoE+ ports and 2 SFP slots. Supports IEEE802.3af/at protocol, providing a maximum of 30W per port and a total power budget of 300W for the entire device.
- Niveau de protection IP55 : Industrial-grade protection against dust, water, shock, weather, and electromagnetic radiation. The enclosure includes a lock and key to prevent theft.
- Protection contre la foudre : Integrated surge arrester and air circuit breaker effectively prevent lightning strikes and overloads (6 kV lightning protection).
- Construction durable et robuste : The enclosure is made from 1.2 mm thick galvanized steel sheet, ensuring high durability and rust prevention. Dimensions: 13.39 x 9.65 x 9.45 inches (34 x 24.5 x 24 cm).
- Refroidissement par ventilateur : Equipped with an integrated cooling fan, allowing the machine to operate within a temperature range of -20°C to 75°C (4°F to 167°F).
- Advanced Functions (DIP Switches): Includes 4 built-in DIP switches for:
- AI PoE: Intelligent PoE management.
- Ultra Long-Distance Transmission: Extends transmission up to 820.21 feet (250 meters). Note: Bandwidth will drop to 10 Mbps in this mode.
- Isolation des ports : Isolates ports for enhanced security.
- QoS (Qualité de Service) : Prioritizes network traffic.

5.2 Connexion des câbles d'alimentation et de réseau
- Connexion électrique : Connect the AC power input to a suitable power source. Ensure the air circuit breaker is in the OFF position during connection.
- Mise à la terre : Connect the grounding wire from the enclosure to a reliable earth ground.
- Connexion du périphérique PoE : Connect your PoE-powered devices (e.g., IP cameras, wireless access points, LED lighting) to the 8 PoE+ ports using standard Ethernet cables.
- Non-PoE Device Connection: Connect non-PoE network devices (e.g., routers, computers, NVRs) to the SFP slots (with appropriate transceivers) or other network ports if available.
- Boîtier sécurisé : Close and lock the enclosure door after all connections are made.

6. Mode d'emploi
6.1 Mise sous tension
After all connections are secure, switch the air circuit breaker to the ON position. The device will power on, and connected PoE devices will receive power automatically.
6.2 Fonctions des commutateurs DIP
The switch features four DIP switches to enable specific functions:
- AI PoE: When enabled, the switch intelligently manages PoE power, detecting and restarting unresponsive PoE devices.
- Long-Distance Transmission (250m): Activates extended range mode for PoE ports, allowing data and power transmission up to 250 meters. Note that in this mode, the port speed will be reduced to 10 Mbps.
- Isolation des ports : Isolates individual PoE ports, preventing direct communication between devices connected to these ports, enhancing security.
- QoS (Qualité de Service) : Prioritizes network traffic for critical applications, ensuring smoother performance for video streams or voice communications.

7. Entretien
- Inspection régulière : Periodically check the enclosure for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
- Nettoyage: Keep the exterior of the enclosure clean. For internal cleaning, ensure power is disconnected and use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners.
- Fonctionnement du ventilateur: Ensure the cooling fan is free from obstructions and operating correctly to maintain optimal internal temperature.
- Sécurité: Always keep the enclosure locked to protect internal components and prevent unauthorized access.
8. Dépannage
- Pas d'alimentation : Check the power source, the air circuit breaker, and all power cable connections. Ensure the power indicator light is on.
- Aucune connectivité réseau : Verify Ethernet cable connections to both the switch and the connected devices. Check the link/activity LEDs on the ports. Ensure DIP switch settings are appropriate for your network configuration.
- Le périphérique PoE ne s'allume pas : Confirm the connected device is PoE compatible (IEEE802.3af/at). Check the PoE status LED for the specific port. Ensure the total power consumption does not exceed the 300W budget. If AI PoE is enabled, the switch may attempt to restart the device.
- Vitesse du réseau lente : If using the long-distance transmission mode, expect a speed reduction to 10 Mbps. Check for network congestion or faulty cables.
- Lightning Protection Tripped: If the air circuit breaker trips, it indicates a power surge. Inspect the power line and connected devices for damage before resetting the breaker.
