Advanced Network Management

This managed switch provides granular control over network resources through comprehensive traffic shaping, bandwidth management, and port mirroring capabilities. Non-stop PoE functionality ensures continuous power delivery during network events, while PoE auto-checking and on/off control optimize device management and reduce power waste. Flow control and storm protection mechanisms maintain network stability in demanding surveillance environments.

Applications

• Multi-camera IP surveillance systems
• Large-scale security deployments requiring high power distribution
• Access control and perimeter security networks
• Mixed deployments combining standard and high-power PoE devices
• Networks requiring fiber backbone connectivity via SFP port

Perspective based on aggregated IP Security Depot and affiliated engineering team experience.

The AW-GEL-105A-110 excels in hybrid-power environments where security equipment varies in power demand. The dual-tier PoE architecture—90W ports for PTZ cameras and high-intensity lighting, 30W ports for fixed domes and access points—eliminates the need for multiple switch types. Extended PoE mode extends reach to 250 meters, valuable for remote surveillance zones.

The 20 Gbps switching bandwidth handles simultaneous 1080p/4K streams without congestion. VLAN isolation and advanced QoS ensure video traffic priority while maintaining security system responsiveness. Port mirroring enables real-time network diagnostics without disrupting operations.

This switch represents a practical solution for mid-to-large installations where power budget, range, and flexibility directly impact total cost of ownership.
