LCS-8GS-P

The Lysora LCS-8GS-P is a versatile, cloud-managed Layer 2 Gigabit PoE switch designed to bridge the gap between small edge deployments and larger enterprise core networks. Engineered as an optimal solution for medium-sized IP security camera clusters, VoIP phone systems, and Wi-Fi access points, this switch provides 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports equipped with 802.3at PoE+ power delivery. With a robust 120W total power budget, it comfortably drives multiple high-definition IP cameras or dual-band access points without the clutter of localized AC adapters. To ensure your edge devices have a fast, bottleneck-free path back to your core network or NVR, the switch is outfitted with 2 Gigabit SFP ports for long-range fiber optic uplinks. Fully integrated with the Lysora Cloud Portal, the LCS-8GS-P allows system integrators to configure network segmentation, monitor power loads, and remotely reboot connected devices from anywhere.

Type of Installation

The Lysora LCS-8GS-P features a desktop, wall-mountable, and rack-mountable design. Encased in a durable metal chassis, its versatile form factor allows it to sit on a shelf in a low-voltage lockbox, mount directly to a backboard, or integrate into a standard 19-inch network rack using the included mounting brackets.

Key Installation Benefits

• Optimized for 8-Channel Surveillance: With 8 dedicated PoE+ ports, this switch aligns perfectly with standard 8-camera deployment clusters. It easily provides enough power for a mix of standard fixed-lens IP cameras and higher-draw motorized varifocal or small PTZ cameras.

• Long-Distance Fiber Uplinks: The 2 Gigabit SFP ports provide essential flexibility for commercial perimeter security. Installers can mount this switch in a remote warehouse or guard shack and run fiber optic cable thousands of feet back to the Main Distribution Frame (MDF), bypassing the 100-meter limitation of standard copper Ethernet.

• Remote Power Troubleshooting: Utilizing the Lysora Cloud App, technicians have full visibility into the real-time power consumption of each individual port. If an IP camera or access point freezes, the installer can remotely toggle the PoE power to hard-reboot the specific device, eliminating the need to dispatch a technician to the site.

• Network Security & Segmentation: Built-in Layer 2 features allow installers to easily create VLANs, isolating sensitive surveillance camera traffic or access control data from the standard guest or employee internet, drastically improving network security and reducing broadcast traffic.
