GT-96180-1818-T2-PP

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology used for providing power over standard Ethernet cables. It is used in a variety of applications, from industrial PoE lighting and PoE Industrial Ethernet switches to PoE powered cameras and access control systems, to name a few. The GT-96180-1818-T2-PP is a popular PoE product, and this article will describe its application field and working principle.

The GT-96180-1818-T2-PP is a PoE powered switch with 17 10/100/1000Base-T ports and one SFP port. It is an industrial-grade product with a built-in UPS, overload/short circuit/overheating protection, and temperature/humidity/dust protection features, so it can be used in harsh industrial environments. The switch also supports PoE power supply with a total power budget of 96W, so it can supply power to PoE-enabled devices through the Ethernet cable. It is a suitable choice for IP surveillance systems, access control systems, and any other applications requiring PoE power supply.

In terms of working principle, the GT-96180-1818-T2-PP switch is based on the IEEE 802.3af/at PoE standard. It has 4 PoE PD ports (15, 16, 17, 18) that can supply power to PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, access control systems, wireless access points, etc. The PoE PD ports can be configured to supply both power and data through the Ethernet cables, and the total power budget of 96W is shared among the 4 PD ports. When the voltage on the port reaches a predetermined threshold, the switch will cut off the power to protect the device.

Apart from PoE power, the GT-96180-1818-T2-PP also supports Ethernet redundancy technologies such as port aggregation and link aggregation. This ensures fault tolerance and reliable operation in redundant Ethernet networks. In addition, the switch also supports advanced network management features such as QoS, VLAN, port mirroring, and SNMP. All of these features help the switch manage Ethernet traffic and save on network resources.

In summary, the GT-96180-1818-T2-PP is a PoE powered switch designed for industrial applications. It supports both PoE power and Ethernet redundancy technologies, and comes with advanced network management features. This makes it an ideal choice for networks needing both power and data transmission, especially in harsh industrial environments.
