The key to designing an efficient and cost effective Ethernet network to support a large security system is in the network topology and selection of network equipment. What if you could achieve class-leading performance without the need for large quantities of overly complicated and expensive network devices? AMG’s range of compact Semi-Managed Ethernet switches have been created with this in mind, combining technology, performance and design into a comprehensive range specifically built for larger site, externally positioned IP CCTV cameras. AMG's Semi-Managed technology allows more cameras to share the same unmanaged network infrastructure whilst reducing the chance of broadcast data storms which can occur especially when cameras are set to multicast.

AMG’s range of Industrial Managed Ethernet switches have all been designed to deliver high performance for applications in harsh environments with temperatures as wide ranging as -40° to 75°C. A full product line-up, from 2 port managed media converters to 28 ports is available in a range of physical formats to facilitate deployment anywhere on site: surface and DIN rail mount for 'at the edge' (roadside cabinets, poles etc.) to full 19" for cabinet rack fitting. All models are optimised for video and purposed designed to meet the demands and requirements of IP video and security surveillance and include key layer 2 functionality such as IGMP for multi-cast video and fast healing redundant architectures for large sites where breaks in cable and damage to equipment is an all too often occurrence.

For those applications where networking equipment can be housed in a controlled environment, commercial grade products provide the most cost effective solution to compliment Industrial grade equipment installed in harsher 'out at the edge' locations. Fully compatible with AMG's 'Industrial' grade equipment, commercial grade products are typically deployed centrally, providing the data collation to local servers, Video Management Systems (VMS), corporate network and Network Video Recording (NVR) solutions.

AMG´s Commercial Layer 2+ 10Gb Managed Ethernet switches are designed for medium and large network environments, to strengthen network connectivity. The switches have 8, 24 or 48 gigabit ports, with or without PoE support, and 1/10Gb SFP+ uplink ports. The 10Gb uplink design provides an excellent solution for expanding your network from 1Gb to 10Gb. By 10Gb speed, these products provide high flexibility and high bandwidth connectivity to other 10Gb switches, servers, workstations or other devices supporting 10Gb interfaces. The user can also aggregate the 10Gb ports as a Trunk group to enlarge the bandwidth. Including full Layer 2+ Management features, the switches have the benefit of redundant ring technology as well as advanced VLAN features. IGMPv1-3 support allows for greater control of Multicast traffic across the network.
 

Industrial Semi-Managed switches with an extended operation feature provides Ethernet with PoE/PoE+ up to 250m. It is not necessary to use any other device in the network path to the remote device. The switch operates on a per copper port basis at fixed 10Mbps duplex and supports up to 30W PoE+ power output. The SFP port(s) can operate either 100Mbps or 1Gbps, depends on an application requirement. Semi-managed switches can be daisy chained effectively and easily even when cameras are multicasting - as data is not sent between copper ports, it helps prevent data flooding and storms. AMG´s industrial range have all been designed to deliver high performance for applications in harsh environments with temperatures as wide ranging as -40° to 75°C.
