BV-Tech PoE Switch 4-Port Metal Housing with Hi-PoE

Description

Product Overview

The BV-Tech PoE Switch combines a compact metal chassis with advanced power‑over‑ethernet technology. Measuring 5.12″ L × 3.35″ W × 1.02″ H and weighing just over 10 oz, the unit is built to fit tight rack spaces while providing robust protection against wear and environmental stress. It offers four PoE+ ports—one dedicated Hi‑PoE port capable of delivering up to 60 W, and three additional ports supplying up to 30 W each—plus two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet uplink ports for flexible network topology. The switch supports an extended PoE transmission distance of up to 250 m, far beyond the standard 100 m limit, making it suitable for larger floor plans or outdoor deployments. Powered by a 57 V, 60 W adapter, the device meets the UL‑rated safety standards and operates reliably up to 55 °C.

Usage

Designed for small‑to‑medium enterprises, surveillance systems, and educational campuses, this switch excels in environments where reliable power delivery to IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and thin clients is critical. Install it in a server room, a wall‑mounted cabinet, or a desktop rack to centralize power and data connections, reducing cable clutter and simplifying maintenance. The extended 250 m PoE range enables placement of devices in distant locations such as parking lots, outdoor signage, or remote conference rooms without the need for additional repeaters.

Why Choose Us

BV-Tech’s reputation for durable networking hardware is reflected in the switch’s all‑metal housing, which resists dents and provides superior heat dissipation compared to plastic alternatives. The Hi‑PoE port delivers up to 60 W, allowing you to power high‑end PTZ cameras or mini‑PCs directly from the switch, eliminating the need for separate power supplies. Automatic PD detection ensures each connected device receives the exact power it requires, protecting both the switch and the endpoint. With a 30‑day money‑back guarantee, one‑year warranty, and lifetime technical support, BV‑Tech stands behind the product’s reliability and performance.

FAQ

Can this switch power a PTZ security camera?

Yes. The Hi‑PoE port can deliver up to 60 W, which is sufficient for most PTZ cameras that require high power for pan, tilt, and zoom functions.

Is passive PoE supported?

No. The switch only supports standard IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ devices. Passive PoE devices are not compatible.

How do I extend the PoE distance beyond 250 m?

For distances greater than 250 m, you can use a PoE extender or a fiber‑to‑copper media converter to maintain signal integrity.

What is the maximum total power budget?

The switch provides a total of 60 W of power, which includes the 60 W supplied by the Hi‑PoE port and the power allocated to the other PoE+ ports.

Does the switch support VLAN tagging?

Yes, the switch includes basic VLAN support to segment network traffic for security and performance optimization.
