Small-Scale Video Surveillance Network
In a Point of Sale (POS) and security camera installation with a limited number of cameras, a single or small group of Allied Telesis WebSmart Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches is an ideal solution because of its simplified network configuration and maintenance requirements.
Example Retail Store Scenario
The retail store is a single unit within a strip mall. To prevent shoplifting and employee theft/fraud, the owner installs a surveillance system. This improves employee and customer safety, and deters shoplifting. This type of project requires multiple cameras due to the layout of the store. Most of the cameras are installed inside the store, with a few cameras installed outside to monitor the front and rear entrance. The physical layout of this site is small, so all of the cameras are connected to a single switch, which uses existing Internet connectivity.
Benefits
The Allied Telesis GS950 V2 Series of high performance, eco-friendly Gigabit WebSmart switches provides simple yet secure management features at an affordable level, improving the delivery of converged data. The GS950 V2 Series provide standards-based IEEE 802.3at PoE+ for up to 30W per port. For high-definition cameras, automatic doors, VoIP phones, and more, the GS950 V2 Series supports up to 16K MAC addresses ensuring that infrastructure installed today will support future needs. Security protocols such as 802.1x, RADIUS and port MAC address security administration facilitate the protection of the network for both local and remote connections.
