GV-APOE0400 is a 6-port 10/100 Mbps unmanaged PoE Switch with 4 PSE/PoE ports and 2

uplink ports. The switch supports IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet standard, with up to 32

W per port and a maximum power consumption of 65 W. In addition to not requiring special

network cables for connecting your powered devices (PD), such as IP cameras, its CCTV

mode also allows power supply over cables of up to 250 m (820 ft) in length, at 10 Mbps.

3.2 DIP Switch

The DIP switch can switch on/off the CCTV mode of the system, as explained below:

[Default Mode] The CCTV mode is switched off by default, in which power can be supplied

through the 4 PoE ports over cables of up to 100 m (328 ft) with a network bandwidth of 100

Mbps per port.

[CCTV Mode] Allows power supply over cables of up to 250 m (820 ft) in length, but at the

expense of reducing the network bandwidth of the 4 PoE ports to 10 Mbps per port.

Note: After switching on/off of the CCTV mode, the system must be restarted for the
change of mode to take effect.

4. Rear Panel

The AC power socket for powering the system is located at the rear panel and accepts power

input from 100 to 240 V at 50/60 Hz.

5. Installation

Prior to installing the PoE switch, please note the following:

 Only clean the switch when it is unplugged and with a dry cloth without involving any

liquids.

 Do not place the switch near water or any damp area and prevent moisture from

entering the switch chassis.

 Do not place the switch on an unstable surface where it may be severely damaged due

to a fall.

 Ensure there is proper ventilation at the installation site and keep the ventilation of the

switch free of obstruction.

 Make sure the operating voltage is consistent with as labeled on the switch.

 Do not open the chassis during operation or when there are electrical hazards in

avoiding electric shocks.

5.1 Leveled Installation

To install the switch on a leveled surface, attach the four supplied rubber feet at the bottom

of the switch as illustrated and place it on a leveled surface.

Note: Make sure to leave at least 10 cm of space around the switch for adequate
ventilation.
