Geovision GV-POE1611 16-Port Managed PoE+ Switch
Overview
The Geovision GV-POE1611 is a 16-port managed gigabit PoE+ switch built for IP surveillance and access control deployments. All 16 ports deliver PoE+ (802.3at) power — up to 30W per port — eliminating the need for separate PoE injectors or distributed power supplies. The 1U rackmount chassis fits standard 19-inch equipment racks, making it the consolidation point for moderate-to-large camera installations where you want centralized power delivery and network management in a single unit.
Compatibility
The GV-POE1611 supports any IEEE 802.3at-compliant device: mid-power IP cameras (most 5MP–8MP domes and turrets), access control readers, wireless access points, and IP intercoms that draw under 30W. Integration with ONVIF-compatible NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Axis Camera Station) is straightforward — the managed switch handles VLAN segmentation and QoS prioritization for video traffic isolation and bandwidth management. The gigabit backplane ensures no bottlenecking across simultaneous high-bitrate streams from multiple cameras.
Installation Notes
Mount the unit horizontally in a standard 19-inch rack using the included bracket hardware. The switch requires a single AC power input to the unit itself — PoE power is sourced from the AC supply and distributed across all 16 ports, so you're not daisy-chaining separate injectors. Plan your network topology around VLAN tagging before deployment; the managed architecture supports port-level configuration for security policy enforcement and QoS rules. Industrial-grade design handles continuous operation in network closets and equipment rooms typical of surveillance installations.
