E-link Launches New AI Smart Managed PoE Switch: More Intelligence at the Same Price

Back2026/9/17 11:13:37

As industrial networking evolves, users need more than reliable Ethernet connectivity and PoE power. Real-time monitoring, flexible power input, and easier maintenance are becoming increasingly important.

E-link has launched the new LNK-AIMC005GMP Industrial AI Smart Managed PoE+ Switch with Voltage Booster, bringing intelligent management and enhanced power flexibility to the existing LNK-IMC005GP design.

The best part? The new AI model is available at the same price as the original model.

1. From Unmanaged to AI Smart Managed

The LNK-IMC005GP is a compact industrial PoE switch featuring 4 Gigabit PoE+ ports and 1 Gigabit uplink. With plug-and-play operation and 12–48VDC input, it provides reliable connectivity for industrial CCTV, automation, and other PoE applications.

The new LNK-AIMC005GMP retains the same 5-port Gigabit PoE+ architecture while adding intelligent monitoring, management, and voltage boosting.

3. What’s New in the AI Model?

Intelligent Monitoring

The LNK-AIMC005GMP supports Android APP, PC Web management, and an LED data display. Users can monitor voltage, current, temperature, Ethernet status, PoE status, and power consumption, making troubleshooting more convenient.

Built-in Voltage Booster

With a 9–54VDC input range and built-in voltage booster, the AI model offers greater flexibility for DC-powered applications, including solar-powered networking and outdoor surveillance.

Smarter Maintenance

Scheduled system reset, scheduled PoE restart, and redundant-mode auto-recovery help simplify maintenance, particularly in remote or difficult-to-access installations.

4. Why Upgrade to the AI Model?

The LNK-IMC005GP remains a reliable solution for straightforward industrial PoE networking.

However, with the new LNK-AIMC005GMP available at the same price, customers can access additional intelligent functions without increasing their hardware budget.

It is especially suitable for industrial CCTV, solar-powered surveillance, factory automation, transportation monitoring, and remote network installations.

Conclusion

E-link's new LNK-AIMC005GMP takes industrial PoE networking to the next level.

Same price. More functions. Smarter management.

With real-time monitoring, flexible DC input, voltage boosting, and automated maintenance, the new AI Smart Managed PoE+ Switch offers customers more functionality at the same price as the original LNK-IMC005GP.
