The S8G02G2GFI/GFID is the full-gigabit flagship of the 8-port line: 8 Gigabit PoE ports paired with 2 Gigabit RJ45 uplinks and 2 Gigabit SFP slots, so a project with high-bitrate 4K cameras and a fiber backbone can use both at once. Run the RJ45 uplinks to a nearby switch and the SFP ports to two separate fiber runs for path redundancy, or split camera traffic across copper and fiber to keep any single link from getting overloaded. Every PoE port still delivers up to 30W under IEEE 802.3af/at, and the fanless metal case keeps it silent under load. Choose the 96W S8G02G2GFI for typical loads or the 120W S8G02G2GFI, which adds a watchdog auto-reset, for heavier PTZ/IR loads.
Is This the Right Fit?
Six real deployment scenarios matched to this model's actual datasheet specifications.
- Not a managed switch -- no VLAN segmentation, spanning-tree, or web management interface. Choose a managed model if the project needs VLANs or loop-prevention protocols.
- No ring-network redundancy protocol -- built for star, tree, and bus topologies, not self-healing ring recovery.
- Commercial -10°C to +70°C rated in a desktop/wall-mount metal case without 19-inch rack ears -- not for extreme industrial wide-temperature sites or standard 19-inch rack rows.
Key Features
- IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+, 30W per Port — Delivers up to 30W on every port -- runs PTZ domes, IR-illuminated cameras, and PoE access points with no separate injector.
- Smart Powered-Device Detection — Identifies a genuine PD before energizing the port, so a miswired cable or non-PoE device won't get fried and idle ports don't waste power.
- All-Gigabit Access + RJ45/Dual SFP Uplink — Run copper and fiber together, or split traffic across two paths for extra uplink headroom.
- Gigabit to Every Camera — Full 1000M on all PoE ports, so 4K and multi-sensor units keep their frame rate instead of dropping to 100M.
- One Cable for Power and Data — No separate power run to pull -- camera power and video ride the same Cat5e/6 cable, cutting cable cost and install labor on every point.
- Fanless, Silent, Maintenance-Free — Sealed metal enclosure with zero moving parts -- silent, dust-tolerant, and maintenance-free tucked in a back office, ceiling void, or equipment cabinet.
- 96W or 120W, Watchdog on the High-Power Version — Available in 96W and 120W PoE power budgets, with the 120W version adding a watchdog auto-reset for heavier PTZ/IR loads -- pick the version that matches the job.

| S8G02G2GFI | Standard 96 W PoE budget — fits typical fixed cameras, wireless APs and video intercoms. | |
| S8G02G2GFI | High-power 120 W version — for PTZ domes, IR illuminators and other heavy loads. This version also adds a hardware watchdog that auto-resets the switch if it hangs under load. |
One model, two PoE power versions. Both share the same ports, housing and features; the 120 W version raises the total PoE budget and adds a hardware watchdog for heavy loads. State the power version you need when ordering.

Who uses it, where it goes and how to install it
Written for the S8G02G2GFI from its own specifications: 8 × 10/100/1000M PoE ports, 2 × gigabit RJ45 uplinks, 2 × gigabit SFP slots, 96 W or 120 W PoE budget, 30 W per port, fanless IP30 metal case.
Who it is for
- Small campuses with two or three buildings — Schools, clinics or farms: the switch sits in the NVR room, powers up to 8 local cameras, and takes one fibre from each of two outbuildings into its 2 SFP slots.
- Multi-floor guesthouses and hotels — Fibre riser on one SFP to an upper floor, the other SFP to an annex, and gigabit PoE ports for cameras and gigabit Wi-Fi access points on the same switch.
- Projects with high-bandwidth devices — Every PoE port is gigabit, so multi-sensor cameras, gigabit APs or other devices that need more than 100 Mbps each are not limited by the access port.
- Distributors and private label — Atlas factory-direct model: neutral casing ready for your logo, custom port/power options, chipset options on a project basis and small batches; 20 units per carton.
Where and how to install
- As the hub in the NVR room — A common layout: RJ45 uplink 1 to the NVR, uplink 2 to the router, SFP 1 and SFP 2 to two different remote buildings, 8 PoE ports for the cameras around the main building, each within 100 m.
- Bigger case, plan the space — At 240 × 150 × 44 mm and 1.1 kg it is larger than the other 8-port models; desktop or wall-mount, no 19-inch rack ears, so use a shelf in a rack. Leave room beside it for a fibre termination box and two LC patch leads.
- Ventilation — Fanless and rated -10 to +70°C, 5–95% non-condensing. The metal case is the heatsink, so keep space above it, do not stack equipment on it, and ventilate closed cabinets, especially with the 120 W version near full load.
- Copper runs: 100 m, no extend mode — The page lists the standard 100 m per copper segment and no 250 m extend mode, so a camera farther away needs fibre to a small switch near it. Use solid-copper Cat5e or Cat6 for gigabit ports.
- Surge, earthing and mains — Fibre between buildings carries no surge; outdoor copper camera runs still need Ethernet surge protectors and an earthed cabinet, since no surge rating is listed. Input is AC 100–240 V, so it runs directly on 110/127 V or 220/240 V mains, and put the hub on a UPS.
PoE budget: how many cameras
Power works exactly as on the other 8-port models: 8 ordinary cameras use half of the 96 W, and PTZs or heavy-IR cameras call for the 120 W version. Bandwidth is not the issue here: even 8 local cameras plus 16 more behind the two fibres, at 8 Mbps each, are about 192 Mbps on the uplink to the NVR.
| S8G02G2GFI · 96 W | S8G02G2GFI · 120 W | |
|---|---|---|
| PoE ports / uplinks | 8 × 1000M PoE / 2 × 1000M RJ45 + 2 × SFP | 8 × 1000M PoE / 2 × 1000M RJ45 + 2 × SFP |
| 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 |
| Copper cable per port | 100 m | 100 m |
| Extend mode | — | — |
| Size / mounting | 240 × 150 × 44 mm | 240 × 150 × 44 mm |
| Watchdog auto-reset | — | ✓ |
- Pick 96 W for 8 fixed cameras or APs: 8 × 6 W is 48 W.
- Pick 120 W when 2 PTZs at 30 W share the switch, or the hub must recover by itself with the watchdog.
- Only one fibre link and ordinary cameras: the S802GIGFI (100M PoE ports, 1 SFP) is enough.
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 per camera is an assumption; fibre distance depends on the SFP module.
