Simplifying Your IP Surveillance Deployment with High-power PoE
Nowadays, city utilities and industry sectors are deploying IP surveillance systems in order to secure valuable properties, facilities and even lives with enhanced safety and security. A typical IP surveillance system for utilities includes these major components such as video cloud storages, LPR cameras, security cameras with video analytics capabilities, and flexible data transmission networks. However, driven by digital technology, IP surveillance systems are becoming much more sophisticated and powerful.
Confronting High-power Challenges in the Era of Rapid Change
Given the advances in digital technology, however, there are some challenges for users when their surveillance devices such as PTZ IR cameras require more than 30W of power. Users may select AC to DC power adapters to fulfill the high power demands, but doing so can be quite a hassle, especially for installing additional electrical outlets along with power cable splicing in a smaller space. With the advancement in new technology and standards, the capability of delivering higher power per switch port becomes much more reliable and cost-effective. For such applications, Leonton makes an all-out effort to develop and provides complete IEEE 802.3bt PoE product lines, including the industrial managed Ethernet switches, unmanaged Ethernet switches and PoE media converters.
Managing the PoE Wisely with Ease
While offering reliable high power output, Leonton has come up with some innovative design features that helps users manage or troubleshoot their PoE ports more wisely. These features include Safe PoE Disable, PD Remote Reset Technology (PRRT), PoE Power Budget, and Ping Alive and PoE Schedule.

Safe PoE DisableWhen a PoE connection deteriorates over frequent uses, the use of high power PoE (802.3bt) may aggravate such conditions. Leonton’s patented Safe PoE Disable design (TW Pat: I707559) allows users to turn on/off the power output of each PoE port with a simple flip and gives the 802.3bt PoE products adequate protection. |

PRRT (PD Remote Reset Technology)When the powered devices (PD), such as PoE cameras, need to be connected to networks and installed remotely, media converters or switches with fibers can be the solutions. However, when the PDs become unresponsive, it would be time-consuming and require additional manpower for on-site troubleshooting these remote devices when they are located in different unmanned locations, especially without the help of management software to control the PoE power cycle for resetting the PDs. For this scenario, Leonton’s bt PoE products with the patented “PRRT” technology is a cost-effective solution that can save time and money for better system performance and user experience. Simply replugging the fiber link from your data center equipment will reset the PoE port on the remote Leonton device. In response, the remote Leonton device turns the PoE power off and on in order to reboot the connected PDs. |

Persistent PoEThe persistent PoE technology allows uninterrupted DC power output during Ethernet switch reboots, ensuring that devices like IP cameras continue to function without downtime. This innovation supports proactive maintenance, enabling users to reboot switches while maintaining power to critical equipment. The technology, covered by Taiwan patent I729551, aims to enhance reliability and user experience in surveillance systems and other applications, contributing to near-zero downtime. |
|
Ping AliveThis function enables the switch to check whether the connected Powered Device, such as an IP camera, is alive. And when the device becomes unresponsive, then the switch will automatically reboot the PD. |
|
PoE ScheduleIt allows the administrators to have efficient control on the operating time of the PoE power output from each PoE port through the Web GUI, which enhances the efficiency of energy usage. |
Embracing the Fast-changing IP Surveillance Industry with the Future-proofing Technologies
As one of the key roles in the IP surveillance market, Leonton’s Industrial 802.3bt PoE products help security service providers to accelerate their progression toward the future-proofing IP surveillance applications.
