Veracity VLS-IP-B Longspan Base Unit PoE
Overview
The Veracity VLS-IP-B is a PoE-powered longspan base unit that serves as a network distribution point for extended IP security deployments. It accepts standard PoE (802.3af) input power and redistributes connectivity across remote or long-distance installations where conventional switch placement is impractical. This unit is purpose-built for security integrators deploying cameras and edge devices across sprawling facilities—warehouses, campuses, industrial sites—where a single central NVR or switch cannot reach every endpoint without signal degradation or power loss. The compact fieldable form factor mounts where access and power infrastructure are limited.
Compatibility
The VLS-IP-B integrates within Veracity's IP ecosystem and supports standard PoE-powered network devices—IP cameras, wireless access points, and other 802.3af-compliant endpoints. Verify compatibility with your specific Veracity longspan system configuration and any custom network topology before deployment. Consult your system design documentation or pre-sales engineering for validation across multi-unit extended-range installations.
Installation Notes
The VLS-IP-B accepts PoE power input (802.3af standard, up to 13W typical). Plan your power budget carefully if cascading multiple units or feeding high-draw devices downstream—PoE switch capacity and cable run losses reduce available power at distance. Mount in a protected, accessible location where network cables can reach without excessive strain. Standard Ethernet cabling (Cat5e minimum, Cat6 recommended for longer runs) applies. Environmental tolerance depends on the specific enclosure variant—confirm operating temperature and IP rating for your intended outdoor or indoor placement.
