The Atlas S802EI is a compact 10-port unmanaged Fast Ethernet PoE switch built for 8-camera installs. It provides 8 x 10/100M PoE ports (IEEE802.3af/at, up to 30W per port with smart powered-device detection) plus 2 x 10/100M uplink ports in a fanless IP30 metal enclosure. The base S802EI carries a 96W power budget; the S802EI steps up to 120W and adds an independent watchdog auto-reset circuit for extra-reliable operation on heavier PoE loads or unattended sites. An Extend mode stretches PoE and data reach out to 250m on any port by stepping the link rate down to 10Mbps, and store-and-forward switching with auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDIX keeps traffic flowing without configuration. Both variants are rated -10 to +70°C for unheated equipment rooms, corridors and rooftop cabinets.
Is This the Right Fit?
Six real deployment scenarios matched to this model's actual datasheet specifications.
- Unmanaged Layer 2 only — no VLAN segmentation or STP/RSTP; choose a managed switch if network isolation or spanning tree is required.
- No ring/loop redundancy protocol — wire in star, tree or bus topology only; do not create physical wiring loops between ports.
- Commercial-grade -10 to +70°C housing in a compact desktop/wall-mount form factor — not rated for industrial wide-temperature extremes and not rack-mountable without accessories.
Key Features
- 8 x 10/100M PoE ports, IEEE802.3af/at, up to 30W per port with smart PD detection
- 2 x 10/100M uplink ports to NVR or router
- Two power budgets on the same 8+2 layout: 96W (S802EI) or 120W (S802EI) for heavier camera loads
- S802EI adds an independent watchdog auto-reset circuit for unattended, high-reliability sites
- Extend mode: PoE + data reach up to 250m (link rate steps down to 10Mbps)
- No extra power cable to any camera — PoE carries power and data on one cable, cutting install cost across 8 points
- Fanless metal housing — silent operation, no moving parts to fail

Who uses it, where it goes and how to install it
Written for the S802EI from its own specifications: 8 × 10/100M PoE ports, 2 × 10/100M uplinks, 96 W or 120 W PoE budget, 30 W per port, 250 m extend mode, fanless IP30 metal case.
Who it is for
- Installers on budget 8-camera jobs — Shops, small warehouses, school corridors or hotel floors with 8 ordinary 2 MP–4 MP cameras: one camera never needs more than a 100M port, so the all-Fast-Ethernet layout keeps the cost per port low.
- Unattended remote sites — Gas stations, farm gates or pump houses: order the 120 W version, which adds a hardware watchdog that resets the switch by itself if it hangs, so nobody has to drive out to power-cycle it.
- Expanding an existing 100M camera network — Where the NVR and older cameras are already Fast Ethernet, the S802EI matches that speed; the 250 m extend mode reaches one far camera without a mid-span repeater.
- Distributors and private label — Atlas factory-direct model with neutral casing ready for your logo, custom port/power options and small batches; 40 units per carton for stock orders.
Where and how to install
- Central point, all runs under 100 m — Place it where every camera is within 100 m of cable, not just 100 m in a straight line: count the rises, bends and service loops. Keep extend mode for the one outlier camera rather than designing the whole site around it.
- Closet, desk or wall — The 173 × 124 × 38 mm metal case sits on a desk or mounts on a wall; it is fanless and silent, so it can go in a housekeeping closet or back office. It is IP30, so outdoors it must be inside a weatherproof cabinet, and it is not a 19-inch rack unit.
- Leave air around it — Rated -10 to +70°C, but a fanless case cools only through its metal, so do not bury it under other equipment, in a closed ceiling void next to lamps, or in a sun-heated box; with 8 cameras on the 120 W version the case runs warm.
- Uplinks: NVR and router — Use one 100M uplink for the NVR LAN port and the other for the router or the next switch. Both uplinks are 100M, so do not route a second switch's cameras through this one to the NVR; give each switch its own path back.
- Cable, surge and mains — Use solid-copper Cat5e/Cat6, never copper-clad aluminium, especially on an extend-mode run. No surge rating is listed: add Ethernet surge protectors on outdoor pole cameras and earth the cabinet. Input is AC 100–240 V, so it runs directly on 110/127 V or 220/240 V mains.
PoE budget: how many cameras
Eight ordinary IR cameras use only half of the 96 W budget, so the 96 W version is enough for most fixed-camera jobs. The 120 W version matters when PTZs or heavy-IR cameras are in the mix, and it adds the watchdog. Bandwidth, not power, is the other limit: both uplinks are 100M.
| S802EI · 96 W | S802EI · 120 W | |
|---|---|---|
| PoE ports / uplinks | 8 × 10/100M PoE / 2 × 10/100M | 8 × 10/100M PoE / 2 × 10/100M |
| Total PoE budget | 96 W | 120 W |
| Max. power on one port | 30 W | 30 W |
| Fixed IR cameras at 6 W each | 8 (48 W) | 8 (48 W) |
| Small PTZ / heavy-IR cameras at 13 W, keeping 20% reserve | 5 (65 W) | 7 (91 W) |
| 30 W devices at full load | 3 (90 W) | 4 (120 W) |
| Mixed example | 1 × 30 W + 7 × 6 W = 72 W | 2 × 30 W + 6 × 6 W = 96 W |
| Cameras at 8 Mbps on one 100M uplink | 8 × 8 = 64 Mbps | 8 × 8 = 64 Mbps |
| Copper cable per port | 100 m | 100 m |
| Extend mode | 250 m @ 10 Mbps | 250 m @ 10 Mbps |
| Watchdog auto-reset | — | ✓ |
- Pick 96 W for 8 fixed cameras, APs or intercoms: 8 × 6 W is 48 W.
- Pick 120 W for PTZs or heavy-IR cameras, or for an unattended site that needs the watchdog.
- High-bitrate 4K cameras or a cascaded second switch: pick the S802GI, which has the same 8 PoE ports with 2 gigabit uplinks.
Camera counts assume typical draws of 6 W (fixed IR camera) and 13 W (small PTZ or heavy-IR camera); 30 W rows use the whole budget with no reserve. 8 Mbps is an assumed main-stream bitrate; check each camera's own datasheet.
