Flexible PoE and Network Connectivity:
This Hikvision industrial PoE switch features 3 × 10/100 Mbps PoE ports, 1 × Hi-PoE port, 1 × Gigabit RJ45 port, and 1 × Gigabit fiber optical port. The Hi-PoE port supports IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at, and IEEE 802.3bt standards, providing up to 60 W of power. The remaining PoE ports support IEEE 802.3af/at with a maximum output of 30 W per port, making the switch suitable for various IP surveillance devices.
Extended Transmission up to 300 Meters:
The DS-3T0306HP-E/HS supports long-range transmission of up to 300 meters through its designated ports, helping installers connect surveillance cameras over extended distances. This feature is useful for large properties, industrial facilities, warehouses, and outdoor monitoring applications where standard Ethernet transmission distances may not be sufficient. The Gigabit SFP fiber optical port also enables fiber-based network connectivity for suitable installations.
Reliable Power Delivery and Protection:
With a 60 W PoE power budget, the Hikvision DS-3T0306HP-E/HS supports compatible powered devices through Ethernet cabling. The switch includes 6 KV surge protection for PoE ports, helping protect connected equipment against certain electrical surges. Its PoE power management and support for multiple IEEE PoE standards provide flexible power delivery for compatible IP cameras and network devices.
PoE Watchdog and Network Security:
Designed for more reliable surveillance operations, this Hikvision unmanaged switch features PoE Watchdog technology, which automatically detects and restarts cameras that fail to respond. Port isolation mode helps improve network security by separating connected ports according to the selected configuration. Standard, Extend, Isolation, and PoE Watchdog modes allow the switch to adapt to different network installation requirements.
Industrial-Grade Design for Harsh Environments:
The DS-3T0306HP-E/HS features a solid, high-strength metal housing and a fan-free design for dependable operation. Its wide operating temperature range of -30°C to 65°C makes it suitable for challenging environments where temperature conditions may vary. The fanless construction helps reduce mechanical noise and eliminates the need for a cooling fan, supporting low-maintenance deployment in industrial and surveillance applications.
Efficient Switching Performance:
This 4-port Fast Ethernet unmanaged PoE switch provides a switching capacity of 4.8 Gbps, a packet forwarding rate of 3.5712 Mpps, and a 2K MAC address table. Store-and-forward switching helps manage packet transmission by checking incoming packets before forwarding them. These specifications support efficient data handling for compatible network surveillance and communication devices.
Compact and Easy Installation:
Measuring 158 × 101.2 × 31.6 mm, the Hikvision DS-3T0306HP-E/HS offers a compact form factor for space-conscious installations. Its metal construction, adaptive RJ45 interfaces, and unmanaged operation make it a practical option for installers who need straightforward network deployment without complex switch configuration. The device supports 48–57 VDC power input and has a maximum power consumption of 65 W.
Applications and Conclusion:
The Hikvision DS-3T0306HP-E/HS PoE Switch is suitable for IP camera systems, industrial surveillance networks, outdoor security installations, and network deployments requiring extended transmission distances. With Hi-PoE support, PoE Watchdog, port isolation, surge protection, Gigabit uplink connectivity, and a wide operating temperature range, it offers a combination of network flexibility and durable design for professional surveillance environments.
