The SML-20GPA gives installers 16 PoE++ Gigabit ports and a 240W power budget in a 1U chassis, with LumiCloud remote management included out of the box. It handles camera-heavy layouts that push standard PoE+ switches to their limit -- two dedicated 90W ports for high-draw PTZ and multi-sensor heads, plus 14 ports at 30W for standard cameras and access control devices.
Built for security infrastructure
LumiPoE extends cable runs up to 820 ft (250 m) on PoE ports at 10 Mbps, cutting re-pull costs on longer home-run runs where standard CAT6 PoE hits its limit. The built-in PoE Watchdog monitors connected devices and automatically power-cycles unresponsive endpoints -- fewer truck rolls when a camera freezes overnight. NDAA-compliant and FCC Part 15B certified for commercial and government-eligible bids.
Key features
- 240W total PoE++ budget: ports 1-2 deliver up to 90W each for high-draw PTZ and fisheye cameras; ports 3-16 at up to 30W for standard devices
- LumiPoE extends reach to 820 ft (250 m) on PoE ports at 10 Mbps -- eliminates re-pulls on longer cable runs
- PoE Watchdog auto-recovers frozen devices by power-cycling unresponsive cameras without a site visit
- LumiCloud remote management included at no extra cost; upgrade to LCL-SW100 subscription for full per-port control
- 40 Gbps switching capacity, 29.8 Mpps forwarding rate -- no bottleneck on full-camera deployments
- NDAA-compliant for federal, state, and government-contract installs
System requirements
Mounts 1U rack (rack ears included) or sits desktop. Connects upstream via 2 SFP fiber uplinks or 2 RJ-45 Gigabit uplinks. Internal 100-240V AC power supply -- standard outlet, no dedicated power run required.
