Planet 16-Port 10/100/1000T 802.3at PoE + 2-Port Gigabit SFP Ethernet Switch with LCD PoE Monitor | GSW-1820VHP

16-Port PoE+ Switch with LCD Monitoring

Just “Plug and Watch” for a Quick Solution
PLANET GSW-1820VHP is an ideal Plug and Watch Power over Ethernet solution which provides quick installation, real-time PoE work status monitoring and immediate troubleshooting through its unique LCD display to improve work efficiency and quality without any PC or software required.

The GSW-1820VHP is equipped with 16 10/100/1000BASE-T ports with each port taking up 30 watts of PoE+ power, and 2 extra 1000BASE-X SFP slots with inner power system. With a total PoE+ power budget of 300 watts and non-blocking data switching performance, the GSW-1820VHP can fulfill the demand of sufficient PoE power for HD IP surveillance. It offers a desktop-sized, reliable and visible power solution for small businesses and system integrators deploying Power over Ethernet networks.

Smart and Intuitive LCD Control
The GSW-1820VHP provides an intuitive color panel on its front panel that facilitates the Ethernet management and PoE PD management. They greatly promote management efficiency in large-scale networks for enterprises, hotels, shopping malls, government buildings and other public areas, and feature the following special management and status functions:

Maintenance: Screen saver, fan control, factory default and save configuration

Standard, VLAN and Extend Operation Modes 
The GSW-1820VHP provides Standard, VLAN and Extend operation modes. The GSW-1820VHP operates as a normal IEEE 802.3af/at PoE Switch in the Standard operation mode. The VLAN operation mode features the port-based VLAN function that can help to prevent the IP camera’s multicast or broadcast storm from influencing each other.

In the Extend operation mode, the GSW-1820VHP operates on a per-port basis at 10Mbps duplex operation but can support 20-watt PoE power output over a distance of up to 250 meters overcoming the 100m limit on Ethernet UTP cable. With this brand-new feature, the GSW-1820VHP provides an additional solution for 802.3af/at PoE distance extension, thus saving the cost of Ethernet cable installation. Its VLAN isolation function isolates ports so as to prevent broadcast storm and defend DHCP spoofing in the Extend operation mode.

Flexible Extension Solution
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the GSW-1820VHP is compatible with the 1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (small form-factor pluggable) fiber transceiver, uplinked to the 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.

Robust Protection
The GSW-1820VHP provides contact discharge of ±6KV DC and air discharge of ±8KV DC for Ethernet ESD protection. It also supports ±6KV surge immunity to improve product stability and protects users’ networks from devastating ESD attacks, making sure the flow of operation does not fluctuate.

Easy Installation and Cable Connection
As data and power are transmitted over one cable, the GSW-1820VHP does not need a second cable and electrical outlets on the wall, ceiling or any unreachable place. Thus, it helps to lower the installation costs and simplify the installation effort. All the RJ45 copper interfaces of the GSW-1820VHP support 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation for optimal speed detection through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cable. It also supports standard auto-MDI/MDI-X that can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet device without requiring special straight-through or crossover cables.

Applications

Perfectly-integrated Solution for PoE IP Camera and NVR System
With its 36Gbps high-performance switch architecture and 300-watt PoE power budget, the recorded video files from the 16 PoE IP cameras powered by the GSW-1820VHP are saved in the 16-channel NVR systems or surveillance software in the monitoring center for possible backup references.

Ideal PoE Switch for All Enterprises
Providing sixteen 802.3at PoE+ in-line power interfaces, the GSW-1820VHP can easily build a power that centrally controls IP phone system, IP camera system and wireless AP group for enterprises. Cameras can be installed around the corner in the company or campus for surveillance demands. Without the need for power sockets, the GSW-1820VHP makes the installation of cameras easier and more efficient.
