You can use a PoE switch if you do not want to use a separate power adapter for the camera. Often cameras are mounted in places where there is no power outlet, or it is simply safer to power a camera in a different way than via a power outlet that hangs in plain sight. If a thief pulls the plug, the camera will no longer work. Then the camera is powered via PoE the solution.

Installation Safire Switch

This 8-port Safire switch connects to your existing router using a standard internet cable. Then you are able to operate up to 8 IP cameras which can be powered by PoE, each with only 1 cable. Connect the camera to the switch using a standard internet cable, and you’re done. In other words, the internet and the power supply goes through one internet cable. This way, your camera is equipped with a wired internet connection for the fastest data transfer, and power. So you no longer need a separate power adapter for the camera. That’s convenient and safer.

Which cameras are suitable for PoE

Almost all cameras in our range are suitable for PoE. This makes it much easier to install the camera at the desired position, because there is no need for a power outlet at that location. Do you have doubts about which camera or switch you need? Then please contact us. If desired, we can pre-program the cameras completely free of charge so that all you have to do is hang up the camera, and login with the data we provided in the Safire Connect app on your smartphone. This way you can not only install simple consumer cameras at your home, but also all professional Safire cameras. By the way, all Safire products are very easy to install, even the most professional Safire cameras.

Safire SF-SW1008POE-96

8 RJ45 10/100 Mbps + 2 Uplink 10/100 Mbps ports. The Safire SW1008PoE-96 supports PoE power up to 96W in total for all ports. Because the power limit per port is 30 watts, it is compatible with IEEE802.3af/at or PoE/PoE+. This means that a maximum of 30 watts of power is available per port, but the maximum of 8 ports may not exceed 96 watts. An average surveillance camera with infrared night vision consumes between 5 and 12 watts. Very professional surveillance cameras can require up to 30 watts of power. So if you connect multiple cameras to this switch, always calculate what the total power of all cameras adds up to. The highest class security cameras even require a PoE+ switch, in which case the switch can provide 60 watts of power per port.

When PoE and when PoE+ is needed

Many switches have the specifications of PoE, this means that the ports can deliver up to 15.5 watts of power, and this is sufficient for most consumer IP cameras with infrared night vision. However, if you buy more professional IP cameras with an infrared night vision of 100 meters or more, these cameras consume 18 watts or more. For this you need a switch that can provide more power per port than the 15.5 watts per port. The switch mentioned here has 8 ports and can deliver up to 96 watts of power, and could in theory also handle 5 cameras that require 18 watts of power, because the power per port is not limited, or at least limited to 30 watts per port. In theory, most consumer cameras consume less than 15 watts per camera.

Note that most switches do have a limitation per port. In other words, if you choose a camera with a power consumption of 18 or 24 watts, and the power of the switch you choose is limited per port, then the switch must comply with the PoE+ standard. The Safire SF-SW1008PoE-96 is a switch that meets this PoE+ standard.

What PoE types are there

There are a total of 3 standards as far as PoE switches are concerned. PoE, PoE+ and PoE high. So when buying a camera, pay attention to which of these 3 standards the PoE switch should support, or buy a switch without power limitation per port, and stay under the total power of the switch with the connected cameras.
