Your total power demand is significant. Standard commercial 8-port switches are typically capped at a 65W to 120W total budget. When multiple IR cameras activate at night, the voltage drop will trigger the PSE’s overcurrent protection, causing random reboots and network loss.

Replace standard IT switches with Industrial Hardware. Valtoris PoE Switches guarantee a dedicated 240W Power Budget with -40°C thermal stability.
