KBC launches industrially hardened PoE switches

KBC Networks has expanded its series of Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches with new units featuring extended operating temperature ranges for a wide range of industrial, non-conditioned and outdoor applications. The switches are either IEEE 802.3af compliant or, the higher powered IEEE 802.3at which is suitable for most PTZ cameras. Some models have PoE++ ports and all the new switches are optimised for 4K video, and in CCTV mode they support 250m cable runs with PoE.
