Data link protocols such as HTTP and HTTPS facilitate secure web-based management, allowing administrators to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot the switch remotely. The dual input voltage range of 120-230V AC ensures compatibility with standard power infrastructures in North America and international markets, supporting global deployment scenarios.
This section brings together practical product details such as Data Link Protocols, Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Port/Expansion Slot Details, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
High-Density PoE++ Deployment
With 48 PoE++ ports and a 740W budget, this switch can power and connect numerous devices simultaneously, reducing cable clutter and eliminating the need for separate power injectors or midspans.
- Supports IEEE 802.3bt for up to 90W per port
- Ideal for IP surveillance, wireless, and VoIP systems
Scalable Uplink Connectivity
The four 10G SFP+ slots offer high-speed uplinks to core switches or servers, preventing bottlenecks and future-proofing network backbone capacity.
- Flexible media options: twisted pair or optical fiber
- Enables aggregation and high-bandwidth applications
Advanced Layer 3 Management
Layer 3 routing capabilities allow for intelligent traffic management, inter-VLAN routing, and improved network segmentation, enhancing security and performance.
- Supports static routing and dynamic protocols
- Reduces reliance on external routers for basic routing
Deployment / Use Cases
The AXIS D8248 is particularly well-suited for medium to large-scale installations where centralized power and data distribution are critical. In security and surveillance deployments, it can power dozens of high-resolution IP cameras while providing ample bandwidth for video streaming and storage access. The PoE++ support ensures compatibility with pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras and thermal imaging devices that demand higher power budgets.
For enterprise office environments, this switch serves as an access layer solution, connecting workstations, IP phones, and wireless access points with reliable power and Gigabit speeds. The Layer 3 features enable network administrators to create distinct VLANs for different departments or guest networks, improving security and traffic management. In educational or healthcare settings, the robust PoE budget supports digital signage, nurse call systems, and classroom technology without additional power infrastructure.
Physical Profile
Housed in a black steel chassis, the D8248 switch is designed for durability and efficient thermal management in rack-mounted environments. The 1U form factor minimizes rack space consumption, making it ideal for densely packed network cabinets. Included mounting hardware, such as the 19" ear rack kit and rubber feet, provides flexibility for both rack and desktop placement, though rack mounting is recommended for optimal airflow and cable management.
