PoE switch ( Power over Ethernet switch ) was invented around 1999.
For which IEEE laid down the specifications ~ IEEE 802.3af and so on.
PoE switch was designed to run various remote devices which are fed power also from this device alongwith the IP data link.
It was a generic product to run several type of IP devices which need very low to a certain level of power.
Example of devices it can run :
IP cameras , IP phones , IP sensors , IP controlled relays , IP LED lights , IP Speakers and many other standalone devices.
In reference to IP CCTV cameras and the following are the 'Facts' and 'Problems' of PoE switches :
In standard PoE switch ...
Facts :
( But practically it can run max upto 60-70 mtr only )
Problems :
Moreover , PoE switches cause these problems in IP cameras :
Still , for last more than 20 years , PoE switches are being used to run IP cameras worldwide.
Thereafter , our technical head , who is qualified from IIT Roorkee ( B.E. E&C - 1984 , M.E. E&C - 1986 ) invented an alternative and very revolutionary solution in 2023 to run IP cameras . .
'CLD PoE Tree in Air'
PoE switch was invented for generic use and later IP Cameras were also run by them.
While after analyzing IP Cameras , ‘CLD PoE Tree in Air’ was invented specially for them.
It results full 100% performance from all cameras which customers need for their security.
