Why Choose the DS-3E0528HP-E

Choose the Hikvision DS-3E0528HP-E when a larger surveillance network requires substantial PoE capacity, Gigabit performance and simple plug-and-play deployment. Its 24 powered access ports allow a complete multi-camera system to be connected through one rack-mounted switch, while the four Hi-PoE ports support demanding equipment that may exceed conventional PoE+ limits. Dual RJ45 and dual SFP uplinks offer flexible copper and fibre backbone options, and the 56Gbps switching capacity supports efficient data forwarding under load. Security Wholesalers supplies this switch for professionally designed Hikvision and standards-compatible IP surveillance networks.

Buyer Decision Tips

Port Clarification: The switch has 28 physical network interfaces in total: 24 Gigabit PoE access ports, two Gigabit RJ45 uplinks and two Gigabit SFP fibre ports.

Power Planning Tip: Add the maximum wattage of every connected device and keep the combined requirement within the 370W PoE budget, allowing sensible reserve capacity.

Fibre Note: SFP modules and fibre leads are selected separately and must match the required fibre type, connector, wavelength and link distance.

Choosing the Right Model

  • Choose this model if: You need 24 Gigabit PoE ports, four 90W Hi-PoE ports, a 370W power budget and both copper and fibre uplinks.
  • Choose the DS-3E0520HP-E if: The system requires no more than 16 powered devices and a lower overall PoE budget.
  • Choose a managed switch if: The project requires VLAN configuration, spanning tree, link aggregation, traffic prioritisation or remote port management.
  • Use long-range mode carefully: Extended-distance operation can reduce port speed and should use suitable high-quality copper cabling.
  • Check power and cooling: Allow appropriate rack ventilation, circuit capacity and UPS sizing for a device that can consume up to 400W.

FAQs

  1. How many PoE devices can the DS-3E0528HP-E power?
    The switch provides 24 Gigabit PoE access ports, allowing up to 24 compatible devices to be connected. Their combined maximum power requirement must remain within the shared 370W PoE budget.
  2. How many uplink ports does the switch have?
    It has four dedicated Gigabit uplink interfaces: two RJ45 copper ports and two SFP fibre ports. Including the 24 PoE access ports, the switch has 28 physical network interfaces.
  3. Which ports support 90W Hi-PoE?
    Ports 1 to 4 support IEEE 802.3bt Hi-PoE output up to 90W per compatible port. Available power is also limited by the overall 370W switch budget.
  4. What does the PoE watchdog function do?
    The watchdog monitors connected PoE cameras for a response. When an eligible device becomes unresponsive, the switch can restart power to that port to help restore the connection automatically.
  5. Which ports support transmission up to 300m?
    Ports 21 to 24 support long-range transmission up to 300m when the extended mode is enabled. Real performance depends on cable quality, installation conditions and the connected camera.
  6. Are SFP fibre modules included?
    No. SFP transceivers and fibre patch leads must be selected separately according to the fibre type, connector, wavelength and required transmission distance.
  7. Does the DS-3E0528HP-E require software configuration?
    No. It is an unmanaged switch intended for plug-and-play deployment. Long-range, isolation and watchdog functions are selected through hardware controls rather than a web-management interface.
  8. What should I check before purchasing this switch?
    Confirm the camera count, individual power requirements, total PoE load, required uplink types, cable distances, rack space and whether managed networking features are necessary. Security Wholesalers can supply this switch for compatible professional IP surveillance systems.
