The AXIS T8508 is an 8-port managed Gigabit PoE+ switch purpose-built for IP video surveillance. A fan-less metal chassis keeps it silent for noise-sensitive installs, while a 130 W power budget and up to 30 W per port drive up to eight PoE cameras. Two SFP/RJ45 combination uplinks add fibre or copper backhaul, and the intuitive graphic web interface maps your whole topology so you can reboot cameras, run cable diagnostics and monitor traffic from one screen. Backed by a 5-year Axis warranty and 24/5 support, available Australia-wide from CCTV Guru.
Powers 8 PoE cameras
PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at Type 2) delivers up to 30 W on every port from a 130 W budget — enough headroom for IR domes, PTZ-lite and multi-sensor cameras without external midspans.
Graphic topology overview
A unique web GUI maps every connected device with live status and alerts. Reboot a frozen camera, run cable diagnostics and watch port traffic from a single browser window.
Silent, compact, rack-ready
The fan-less black metal chassis (220 × 242 × 44 mm) suits reception areas and comms cupboards alike, and mounts in a rack with the optional AXIS T85 Rack Mount Kit A.
Managed security & VLANs
Integrated DHCP server, VLANs, QoS, IEEE 802.1X, ACLs, DHCP snooping, HTTPS and Spanning Tree (STP/RSTP/MSTP) give you enterprise-grade control over a surveillance VLAN.
How many cameras can the AXIS T8508 power?Up to 8 PoE cameras across its eight Gigabit PoE+ ports, with up to 30 W per port and a 130 W total budget.
What PoE standard does it use?PoE+ — IEEE 802.3at Type 2, Class 4 — delivering up to 30 W on every port.
Is the AXIS T8508 NDAA compliant?Yes. It is both NDAA (Section 889) and TAA compliant, making it suitable for government and enterprise projects.
Does it have fibre uplinks?It has two SFP/RJ45 combination uplink ports, so you can use copper RJ45 or an SFP fibre module for backhaul.
Is it a managed switch?Yes. It's fully managed with VLANs, QoS, 802.1X, ACLs, DHCP server and Spanning Tree, configured through an intuitive graphic web interface.
Is the switch noisy?No — it is completely fan-less, making it ideal for reception areas, offices and other noise-sensitive locations.
Can it be rack mounted?Yes, using the optional AXIS T85 Rack Mount Kit A. Out of the box it's desktop or surface mountable with the included rubber feet and drill template.
Does it work with non-Axis cameras?Yes. It's a standards-based PoE+ switch and powers any IEEE 802.3af/at device, though it pairs especially well with Axis cameras and recorders.
What is the operating temperature range?0 °C to 50 °C at 10–90% non-condensing humidity, for indoor installation.
