Switch BCS BCS-B-SP0802G — 8× PoE ports, 2× Gigabit RJ45 uplinks

BCS BCS-B-SP0802G is a compact network switch that combines eight Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports with two Gigabit RJ45 uplinks. It is designed to deliver both data connectivity and electrical power to PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points, enabling centralized connection and simplified cabling for small surveillance systems and local networks.

Advantages

The switch provides simultaneous Ethernet and power delivery over standard Cat5e/Cat6 cabling, reducing the need for separate power supplies at device locations. With two Gigabit uplink ports, it supports higher-throughput connections to core switches or network routers. Its compact form factor and straightforward port layout allow installation in constrained spaces and straightforward integration into existing network setups.

Suitable for

• Small CCTV and IP camera installations
• Wi‑Fi access point deployments in offices or retail
• Small office and home network setups requiring PoE
• Temporary or remote sites where centralised power delivery is preferred

Key specifications

• Number of PoE ports: 8
• Uplink ports: 2 × Gigabit RJ45
• PoE capability: supports powering PoE devices over Ethernet
• Form factor: compact desktop or shelf-mountable switch
• Cabling: compatible with Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernet cables
• Performance: Gigabit uplink speed for backbone connectivity

How to use

Place the switch on a stable surface or mount it according to the installation environment. Connect PoE-enabled devices to the eight PoE ports using appropriate Ethernet cables, and attach one or both Gigabit RJ45 uplink ports to your network core or router to provide upstream connectivity. Ensure the switch is connected to a suitable AC power source and verify device power and link LEDs to confirm operation. For initial setup, power on the switch before connecting sensitive devices to avoid power sequencing issues.

Usage recommendations

Ensure total power budget and per-port power requirements of connected devices are within the switch’s supported PoE budget. Use high-quality shielded or unshielded Ethernet cables of recommended category to maintain stable data and power delivery. For systems with higher bandwidth needs, connect both Gigabit uplinks or use link aggregation where supported by the rest of the network.
