LINOVISION 4 Port Full Gigabit PoE++ Switch - 96W Built-in Power

In this review of the LINOVISION 4 Ports Full Gigabit PoE++ Switch the bottom line is clear: this is a compact, hardworking PoE switch for small installations that need up to BT 90W per port and a total 96W budget. The reviewer found it best suited to users deploying power hungry devices such as PTZ cameras, access points, PoE lights or PoE monitors where reliable power delivery and simple plugandplay operation matter more than advanced management. The combination of BT 90W PoE++ on every port and a full gigabit uplink makes it a practical choice for powercentric edge deployments.

Key Features

• BT 90W Per Port: All four PoE ports can deliver BT 90W nominally, which covers a broad range of IEEE 802.3af/at/bt devices including PTZ cameras and PoE lights.
• Total 96W Power Budget: The builtin 96W power supply provides a fixed budget that simplifies small installation planning without an external injector.
• Full Gigabit Ports and SFP: Four 10/100/1000Mbps PoE++ ports plus a 1000Mbps RJ45 and a Gigabit SFP uplink enable high speed backhaul to a NVR or core switch.
• Safe PoE Startup Sequence: The standard PD detection and classification process prevents delivering power to nonPoE devices and helps avoid overloads.
• PoE Extend Mode: An optional extended mode supports up to 820ft of PoE transmission for camera cabling when 10Mbps bandwidth is acceptable.
• Rugged, Fanless Design: A metal enclosure with fanless cooling and 6KV surge protection improves reliability in harsh or outdooradjacent environments.

Who It's For

The switch is best for installers and small business owners who need a compact, plugandplay PoE solution for up to four powered devices where perport high output is desirable. It suits security camera setups with PTZ cameras, small wireless deployments with highpower access points, or lighting systems using PoE lighting fixtures.

It is less suitable for larger networks that require managed switching features like VLANs, QoS configuration, or higher aggregate PoE budgets; buyers needing enterprise management should look at managed switches with higher total power capacities and configuration options.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• All four ports supporting BT 90W provide strong perport output for modern PoE devices.
• Full gigabit data ports and a Gigabit SFP uplink make integration into wired backbones straightforward.
• Plugandplay operation and safe PD detection reduce setup time and risk of damaging nonPoE gear.
• Fanless metal case with 6KV surge protection adds reliability in exposed installations.

Cons

• Total PoE budget is 96W, which may limit simultaneous use of full BT 90W on multiple ports in heavy loads.
• No managed features are included, so it is not ideal where VLANs or advanced traffic control are required.

Our Verdict

The LINOVISION 4 Port Full Gigabit PoE++ Switch is a practical, value oriented device for small sites that need strong perport power and simple deployment. It is a good buy when powering PTZ cameras, highpower APs, or PoE lighting without the complexity of managed switches, but teams needing larger total power budgets or advanced network management should consider higher capacity managed options.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this switch power four BT 90W devices at once?
The switch supports BT 90W on each port, but the total builtin budget is 96W so powering four devices at full BT 90W simultaneously will exceed the total budget.

Does it require any configuration?
No configuration is required; it is plugandplay and will autonegotiate PoE/PoE+/PoE++ modes with connected devices.

How far can I run PoE cable?
Using PoE Extend Mode the switch can support up to 820ft of PoE transmission with bandwidth reduced to about 10Mbps, useful for many cameras.
