Notes: 1. AI Extend: AI extend is a common PoE switch feature designed to extend PoE
distance up to 250m. The downside is that port speeds will be limited to only 10Mbps. This
limitation does not apply to the uplink ports. The AI Extend feature is suitable for situations
where your power source is too far away. There is, however, that bandwidth limitation to
be aware of.
2. AI VLAN: AI VLAN is essentially port isolation on each of the PoE ports. All PoE
ports are only able to communicate with the uplinks when this option is enabled. This can
be useful when the setup requires multiple clients to connect to a common network
resource but should not be able to connect to each other. Using this also improves network
security.
3. When AI QoS is enabled on the 8 port models, Port 1 - 4 will prioritise Video and
VoIP traffic flows over others. For example, an IP camera streaming in real-time takes
preference over a user transferring a backup file to a server.
4. AI PoE: The AI PoE feature allows the switch to check the ports for activity
periodically. If a port is not passing traffic for a certain amount of time, the switch will reset
the power on that specific port. The device on the other end will reboot with the idea that it
returns to a working state. This is a great feature to automate this process. It can save lots
of time on support and driving out to the site to troubleshoot or manually power cycle
equipment.
