Network Application

This section provides a few samples of network topology in which the switch is used. In general, the PoE Injector Managed Switch is designed as a segment switch which has large address table (8k MAC addresses) and high performance to deal with interconnecting networking segments.

PC, workstations, and servers can communicate each other by directly connecting with PoE injector Managed Switch. The switch automatically learns nodes addresses, which are subsequently used to filter and forward all traffic based on the destination address.

Using the uplink port (Giga Combo port), the switch can connect with another switch or hub to interconnect other small-switched workgroups to form a larger switched network. Meanwhile, user can also use fiber ports to connect switches. The PoE switch also injects power into the UTP cables for supplying the power that PDs (Power Devices) need.

The Power over Ethernet Switch can provide power to PDs that follow the IEEE 802.3af standard in the network. It can solve the problem of position limitation. The network devices can be installed in more appropriate position for better performance. The following figure is an example of network application for Power over Ethernet Switch.
