Hanwha SW20g Wisenet SKY 18-Port PoE+ Switch
The Hanwha SW20g is a managed 18-port Gigabit Ethernet network switch purpose-built for Wisenet SKY IP camera systems and enterprise surveillance deployments. Delivering integrated Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) capability across all 18 ports, the SW20g eliminates the need for separate power infrastructure at camera locations, significantly reducing installation complexity and operational costs. The managed architecture provides comprehensive network intelligence, traffic prioritization, and security features essential for reliable, scalable video surveillance operations.
Key Features
- 18 PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet ports for simultaneous power and data delivery to IP cameras
- Managed switch architecture with advanced network control and intelligence
- SFP uplink connectivity for flexible backbone and extended network reach
- Gigabit Ethernet performance across all ports
- Optimized integration with Hanwha Wisenet SKY surveillance platforms
- Enterprise-grade switching fabric for mission-critical deployments
Technical Highlights
The SW20g's 18 PoE+ ports support simultaneous power and data delivery to IP cameras, eliminating separate power supply requirements and simplifying site-level infrastructure. The managed switching architecture enables VLAN segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS) prioritization, and spanning tree protocol support for network resilience and traffic optimization. SFP connectivity options provide flexible backbone connectivity to core network infrastructure, supporting fiber or higher-speed copper uplinks for scalable deployments.
As a purpose-built component of the Wisenet SKY ecosystem, the SW20g integrates seamlessly with Hanwha surveillance management platforms, enabling automated camera discovery, provisioning, and network monitoring. The managed feature set ensures granular control over bandwidth allocation, device prioritization, and network segmentation—critical for surveillance systems handling continuous HD and 4K video streams.
Applications
- Enterprise surveillance systems with 18+ IP camera deployments
- Multi-building campuses and distributed site networks
- Retail, transportation, healthcare, and industrial security installations
- Facilities requiring centralized PoE power delivery and network management
- Backbone connectivity for IP camera networks with fiber or extended reach requirements
The SW20g addresses a critical infrastructure gap in medium-to-large surveillance deployments: centralized PoE power and managed switching in a single appliance. By consolidating power delivery and network switching, the SW20g reduces per-camera installation time and eliminates the cost and complexity of distributed power supplies. The managed feature set—VLAN support, QoS, and spanning tree—enables network architects to isolate surveillance traffic, guarantee bandwidth for critical cameras, and maintain network uptime in mission-critical environments.
SFP uplink ports provide future-proof scalability without rearchitecting the core network. For Wisenet SKY users, the tight platform integration ensures out-of-box compatibility and simplified provisioning, making this switch an ideal choice for growing surveillance networks.
