Hikvision 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged PoE Switch DS-3E0518P-E

The DS-3E0518P-E is a Hikvision 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged PoE Switch.

• Layer 2 network switch designed for video data transmission
• 16 x 10/100/1000 Mbps ethernet port, 1 x 10/100/1000 Mbps uplink ethernet port and 1 x 10/100/1000 Mbps uplink SFP port
• IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3x, IEEE 802.3ab, and IEEE 802.3z network standards available
• IEEE 802.3 af & at high POE power supply
• Store-and-forward switching
• Safe and reliable using 6 KV high surge protection

Where it fits

Camera systems of up to 16 IP cameras — offices, warehouses, compounds, schools — where every camera needs Gigabit bandwidth and PoE from one rack-mounted switch, with a copper or fibre uplink back to the recorder or core. It is plug and play: no configuration.

Where it is the wrong choice: networks that need VLANs, monitoring or remote management — choose a smart or managed switch; or small systems of four to eight cameras, where a smaller switch costs less.

Before you order — three things to confirm

• PoE budget. Add up the maximum draw of every powered device and check it against the switch’s total PoE budget in the specs.
• Uplinks. Confirm whether the uplink runs over copper or fibre, and the SFP module type if fibre.
• Mounting and environment. Confirm rack or desk mounting and ventilation.

Common questions

Does it need configuration?
No — it is an unmanaged switch: plug and play, with no software and no login.

Can it power PTZ cameras?
PoE ports follow IEEE 802.3af/at per the datasheet; check each device’s draw against the per-port limit.
