Description

The Vivotek Outdoor Unmanaged PoE Switch is engineered for reliable, plug-and-play power and connectivity in harsh outdoor environments. Built to withstand the elements, this rugged switch combines weatherproof protection with surge safeguards to keep PoE devices such as cameras, access points, and sensors online when it matters most. With an outdoor-ready design that carries IP67 protection and IK10 impact resistance, it delivers dependable performance in extreme temperatures and challenging weather conditions. As an unmanaged solution, it provides effortless setup and stable Ethernet PoE connectivity, helping you deploy a scalable outdoor network quickly and with minimal maintenance. Whether you’re securing perimeters, expanding a surveillance footprint, or extending wireless coverage in outdoor areas, this Vivotek switch is purpose-built to endure and perform.

  • IP67-rated enclosure and IK10 impact resistance ensure durable operation in outdoor environments. The rugged housing stands up to dust, rain, snow, and direct exposure, while the hardened construction resists physical impact, making it suitable for mounting on walls, poles, or in weatherproof enclosures. This means long-term reliability even in coastal, desert, or industrial settings where environmental exposure is a fact of life. The outdoor design minimizes maintenance and reduces downtime, allowing security and connectivity to stay online around the clock.
  • 6KV PoE Ethernet port surge protection plus 40KV AC power surge protection safeguard connected devices and the power supply during lightning events or power fluctuations. This dual-layer protection helps shield IP cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE devices from transient voltages, providing peace of mind in storm-prone regions or industrial locations where electrical disturbances are more common. By mitigating surges, you can maintain uninterrupted operation and extend the life of attached equipment.
  • Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 65°C enables reliable performance in extreme climates. Whether deployed in unheated outdoor enclosures in frigid winters or in sun-baked, hot summer locations, the switch maintains stable performance. This capability is essential for outdoor surveillance systems in remote or exposed sites, where temperature swings are frequent and conditions can be severe. The robust thermal design helps ensure consistent PoE power Delivery to connected devices under demanding weather conditions.
  • Unmanaged, plug-and-play design simplifies installation and maintenance. There is no complex configuration required—simply connect compatible PoE devices and the switch automatically provides power and network connectivity. This makes it an ideal choice for rapid deployments, temporary installations, or facilities where in-house IT support is limited. The straightforward operation reduces setup time, minimizes potential misconfigurations, and supports scalable network growth as you add more IP cameras or wireless endpoints.
  • Designed to support outdoor surveillance and network expansion, the switch enables reliable PoE connectivity for cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE-enabled devices. Its hardened-grade performance ensures consistent link quality and power delivery in exterior environments, helping you maintain coverage over wide areas and remote corners of a site. By consolidating power and data into a single, rugged unit, it simplifies wiring and reduces the need for additional weatherproof enclosures or surge protection modules.

How to install Vivotek Outdoor Unmanaged PoE Switch

  • Choose a secure, weatherproof mounting location. Ensure the area is dry, well-ventilated, and within reach of a power source and network connection. Plan routing for cables to minimize exposure to the elements and physical damage.
  • Mount the switch in a suitable outdoor enclosure or on an exterior surface designed to withstand weather. Use appropriate hardware to secure the unit, maintaining access to ports for future expansion and maintenance.
  • Connect PoE devices to the switch’s Ethernet ports. Verify compatibility with IEEE PoE standards and ensure that connected devices do not exceed the switch’s power budget. Use high-quality, weatherproof RJ-45 connectors or cables rated for outdoor use to maintain performance and reliability.
  • Connect the switch to a power source, using the wired AC supply with surge protection. If your setup includes an external power protection device, ensure compatibility and proper grounding to maximize protection against surges and electrical noise.
  • Power on the system and verify status indicators. Check that PoE devices receive power and establish network connectivity. Monitor for stable link lights and steady PoE activity, and perform a basic functionality test (e.g., camera feed or wireless AP operation) to confirm proper operation before finalizing the installation.
