General positioning as of November 2026. Always check certifications (temperature range, hazardous-area, IEC) against your project specification.
Navijin Industrial Range
- GEIN1105-5P: 4x Gigabit PoE+ (30W) in an IP30 housing, for cabinets, poles and kiosks.
- GEIN1108-8P: 8x Gigabit PoE+ with 16Gbps switching, IP30.
- GEIN1210-8P2S: 8x PoE+ plus 2x SFP fibre uplinks, 20Gbps and 8K MAC. The standard choice for field cabinets.
- SG2401-16S8G: 16x SFP fibre plus 8x PoE+ and 52Gbps. Aggregates many remote cabinets over fibre.
- SG3801-16S8C4T: managed fibre switch with VLAN, QoS, ACL, SNMP, IPv6 multicast, 802.1X and ERPS ring.
- SFP optics: NSFG20SS-LC-20KMx, NSFMG20SS-LC-3KM and NSFT201SD-LC-20KM: 1.25Gbps, 3km or 20km over single-mode fibre, with DDM, hot-pluggable and MSA compliant.
- 48V DIN-rail power: DRP-75-48, DRP-120-48, DRP-240-48 and DRP-480-48, sized to your PoE budget.
Sizing Tip: PoE Budget and Power Supply
Add up the power of every device: PTZ cameras often draw 25 to 30W, fixed cameras 5 to 12W and Wi-Fi 6 APs 12 to 18W. Then choose a DIN-rail supply with at least 20 to 30% headroom. For example, 4 fixed cameras plus 1 PTZ plus 1 outdoor AP use about 80W, so the DRP-120-48 is a good fit.
Why Choose Navijin for Industrial Sites?
