Hello,
I need to change my existing POE+ switch, because some of the ports are not working well.
I am looking to get one or two POE/POE+ switches as follows:
1) One 8 port or so switch for my enclosed shed, where some of the external cameras are connected. I would like some POE+ ports in case I need to add a PTZ or camera that needs the extra power?
I try to power the external cameras through 12v DC adapters at the point of install itself, but want to have the option of POE+ if needed
I recently saw an Intellinet 8 port POE/POE+ Gigabit unmanaged switch for about $130.
Is this a good option?
Or are there better options for that price range?
I notice that @giomania posted these options in his extensive notes, are these the way to go?
4-Port PoE+ Switch TRENDnet TPE-TG44G, 4 x Gigabit PoE/PoE+ Ports, 4 x Gigabit Ports $74.99 as of 7/6/17
8-Port PoE+ Switch V7 PEGS8-1N 8 PORT Gigabit PoE+ 120W $37.06 as of 8/1/17 Specifications
8-Port PoE+ Switch BV-Tech POE-SW800G 8 Port Gigabit PoE+ 130W $109.99 as of 7/6/17
8-Port PoE+ Switch TP-Link TL-SG1008PE 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ 124W $119.99 as of 7/6/17
8-Port PoE+ & 2-Port Non-PoE Switch Netis PE6110 10-Port Gigabit PoE+ 124W $89.99 as of 7/6/17
8-Port PoE+ & 8-Port Non-PoE Switch Linksys LGS116P 16-Port Gigabit PoE+ 80W $158.25 as of 7/6/17
16-Port PoE+ Switch V7 PEGS16-1N 16 PORT Gigabit PoE+ 120W $85.21 as of 8/1/17 Specifications
Eventually I will connect this switch to another 'master' switch, which will run Blue Iris (BI) so that master switch will have maybe 8 or so independent cameras and also take input from the switch in the shed.
Which brand(s) of POE/POE+ switch do you recommend? Or are they the same and I should pick the cheapest?
I am in the USA and can buy them online or in store.
Thank you, your wisdom is always welcome
