Troubleshooting

Device connected to PoE+ port not receiving power.

Check if the device requires more power than the port provides. Verify the PoE budget hasn't been exceeded. Check the cable connection and ensure the device supports PoE.

Poor video quality or dropped packets.

Check the network cables for damage. Ensure that QoS is enabled and configured correctly to prioritize video traffic. Verify that IGMP snooping is enabled.

Cannot access the AV GUI.

Ensure that the switch is connected to the network and that you are using the correct IP address. Try clearing your browser's cache and cookies. Check your network configuration and firewall settings.

Fan noise is excessive.

Ensure the switch is well-ventilated. Consider enabling the quiet mode if available, but be aware this may reduce cooling effectiveness.
