Overview of the Veracity VCS-8P2-MOB Camswitch Mobile 8 Plus
The Veracity Camswitch Mobile 8 Plus fast Ethernet switch provides 10 network ports, 8 of which are PoE capable (PoE 802.3af / 802.3at). The VCS-8P2-MOB integrates a 10 port Ethernet switch capable of converting an 8 to 40 volt DC supply into an 80 watt IEEE 802.3af/at compliant power source, suitable for converting 12 and 24 volt power supplies in buses and trains to PoE power (battery circuit fuse required).
The rugged VCS-8P2-MOB is easy and neat to install using the included wall mount clips and provides auto-configuration for speed (10BASE-T or 100BASE-T) and duplex.
Total power budget
24V input: | 80 watts |
12V input: | 80 watts (reduce to 65 watts for max 30°C temperature rise above ambient) |
Less than 12V input: | 60 watts (reduce to 50 watts if voltage can drop below 10V) |
POE power conversion produces heat; the above limits are for horizontal mounting with ventilation. Installation in enclosed spaces will cause additional heating and power limiting.
4 port version: Veracity VCS-4P1-MOB Camswitch Mobile 4 Plus.
