16 Port PoE CCTV Switch with Dual RJ45 Uplink and SFP Uplink
The JHJ014 K is a practical PoE switch for expanding wired IP CCTV systems. It provides 16 PoE ports for compatible IP cameras, plus dedicated network uplinks for linking the switch to an NVR and the wider LAN.
Key features
- 16 PoE RJ45 ports for compatible IP cameras and network devices
- Two RJ45 uplink ports, labelled LAN and NVR, plus one SFP uplink port
- IEEE 802.3af/at support; up to 25W per PoE port, subject to the total PoE power budget
- Power and data through one Ethernet cable for a cleaner wired installation
- Built in power supply, metal enclosure and fan assisted cooling
- Desktop, wall mount or rack mount installation options
Ideal for expanding a CCTV system
This switch is useful when an NVR supports more cameras than its built in PoE ports. For example, a 32 channel NVR with 16 built in PoE ports can use this switch to connect additional compatible cameras through the network.
Setup note
Connect the switch to mains power, then connect cameras and the NVR/LAN with quality Ethernet cable. No software is needed for the switch itself. Cameras connected through the switch may need an IP address in the same network range as the NVR before they can be added.
Compatibility
For reliable CCTV operation, check the total PoE power requirement of all cameras, the NVR’s supported IP camera capacity and the cable type used. Solid copper Cat5e or Cat6 cable is recommended for PoE camera runs.

16-port PoE switch buying questions
Can a 16-port PoE switch power sixteen CCTV cameras?
It can connect up to sixteen compatible PoE devices, but the camera power demand must fit both the per-port limit and the switch's total power budget. Check the camera's maximum consumption, including night illumination, before ordering.
Does a PoE switch add channels to an NVR?
No. It provides camera power and network connections; the recorder must already support the required number of camera channels and combined video bandwidth. Compare our NVR channel and expansion guide.
Which cable should I use with the PoE switch?
Use correctly terminated cable suitable for your equipment and cable route. Our custom-length solid-copper Cat6 cable offers indoor and outdoor choices. Suitable Cat5e can also support many standard PoE camera installations; check length and equipment requirements.
