For small systems, the Vi3003's Layer 2 network capability can eliminate the need for network switches, saving costs and rack space. It also can significantly decrease network switch costs by increasing the capacity of a 24-port switch to handle up to 216 cameras and an 8-port switch up to 72 cameras. As a mini network switch, the Vi3003 avoids the potentials for transmission collisions by complying with IEEE standards. Its ability to automatically sense the datarate up to 1,000Mbps (1Gbps) also makes it the perfect solution for cost effectively extending network to network communications or between network switches requiring high speeds transmission.

The Vi3003 can be powered by PoE eliminating the need for external power or a local power supply. Additional power up to 90W can be added at any point along the cable run where power outlets are available to provide the ability to power PoE++ IP cameras.

Hardened wide range operating temperature of -40°C to +75°C makes the Vi3003 a perfect solution for harsh environments.
