Product Overview
For industrial surveillance networks where standard desktop switches fall short on power output, environmental tolerance, or transmission distance, the Hikvision DS-3T0510HP delivers an 8-port Gigabit unmanaged Hi-PoE switch built for demanding installations. Featuring 8 Gigabit PoE ports with IEEE 802.3af/at/bt support, 90W Hi-PoE output on Ports 1 and 2, a 110W total PoE budget, and 2 Gigabit SFP fibre optical ports, it provides both high-power device support and long-distance network backhaul from a single DIN rail-mounted unit. Equipped with 6kV surge protection, intelligent powered-device detection, system-level overload protection, and a rugged aluminium alloy fan-free housing, it operates across a -40 degrees C to 75 degrees C temperature range without active cooling. It also supports long-range transmission up to 300m, making it well suited to industrial CCTV systems, remote camera cabinets, outdoor enclosures, factories, and sites where PTZ cameras or fibre uplinks are part of the network design.
Key Capabilities
8 Gigabit PoE Ports
All 8 RJ45 ports deliver Gigabit data and PoE power over a single Ethernet cable. This removes the need for separate camera power supplies across the installation, simplifying cabling in industrial cabinets, plant rooms, and remote enclosures.
2 Gigabit SFP Fibre Uplink Ports
Two dedicated SFP ports allow fibre backhaul from a remote camera cabinet or industrial network segment back to a core switch, NVR network, or control room. This is essential for multi-building sites and large industrial facilities where copper runs are not practical.
90W Hi-PoE on Ports 1 and 2
Ports 1 and 2 support up to 90W Hi-PoE output, meeting the power demands of compatible high-draw devices such as selected PTZ cameras and specialist outdoor surveillance equipment that standard PoE+ ports at 30W cannot support.
110W Total PoE Budget with Intelligent Detection
A 110W shared PoE budget, combined with PD intelligent detection and system-level overload protection, helps manage power delivery safely across connected devices. Installers should calculate total draw before deployment, particularly when Ports 1 and 2 are used at high power.
300m Long-Range Transmission
Long-range mode supports cable runs up to 300m, providing flexibility for CCTV installations where cameras are positioned well beyond the standard 100m Ethernet limit. Performance depends on cable quality, connected device compatibility, and actual power draw at the camera end.
Industrial Design with 6kV Surge Protection
A rugged aluminium alloy fan-free housing, DIN rail mounting, -40 degrees C to 75 degrees C operating range, and 6kV surge protection make this switch suitable for industrial cabinets, outdoor enclosures, transport infrastructure, and locations exposed to wide temperature swings or electrical surges.
Best For
- Hi-PoE PTZ Camera Networks: Ports 1 and 2 support up to 90W output, making this switch a practical choice for installations that include compatible high-power PTZ cameras requiring more than standard PoE+ can deliver.
- Industrial and Harsh-Environment Sites: The fan-free aluminium housing, DIN rail form factor, and -40 degrees C to 75 degrees C operating range suit this switch for factories, plant rooms, warehouses, and outdoor cabinets where temperature extremes are a real consideration.
- Remote Camera Cabinets with Fibre Backhaul: The 2 SFP ports allow remote network segments to connect back to a core switch or control room over fibre, which is especially useful for multi-building industrial sites and large perimeter camera systems.
- Extended Cable Run Installations: Long-range transmission up to 300m provides additional reach for camera positions that cannot be served by a secondary switch or where cable runs exceed standard Ethernet limits.
Why Choose the DS-3T0510HP
The DS-3T0510HP occupies a specific position in a surveillance network: it is an unmanaged industrial switch that combines Hi-PoE output, fibre uplinks, and harsh-environment construction in a compact DIN rail package. A standard 8-port desktop PoE switch will not support 90W on any port, will not tolerate -40 degrees C operating conditions, will not mount on a DIN rail, and will not offer SFP fibre connectivity. The DS-3T0510HP addresses all of these gaps in a single unit rated to 6kV surge protection with intelligent PD detection and overload protection built in. The 110W total PoE budget supports up to 8 connected cameras, with priority planning required when Ports 1 and 2 are running Hi-PoE devices. Installers sourcing this switch through Security Wholesalers can pair it with compatible Hikvision IP cameras, PTZ cameras, and SFP fibre modules for a complete industrial surveillance network build.
Buyer Decision Tips
PoE Budget Planning: The DS-3T0510HP has a total PoE budget of 110W shared across all 8 ports. If Ports 1 and 2 are running Hi-PoE devices drawing close to 90W combined, the remaining 6 ports will have very limited power headroom. Calculate the total power draw of all connected devices before finalising the installation design, and confirm whether a higher-budget switch is needed if the full port count will be loaded with higher-draw cameras.
SFP Module and Power Supply Requirements: The DS-3T0510HP requires an external 48-57VDC, 2.5A power supply and does not include SFP fibre modules in the box. Confirm that the correct SFP modules for your fibre type and link distance are sourced separately, and ensure the power supply used is rated to meet both the switch idle draw and the expected PoE load before installation.

Ideal Use Cases
High-Power PTZ Camera Installations
Ports 1 and 2 support up to 90W Hi-PoE output under IEEE 802.3bt, providing the power headroom that selected PTZ cameras require. This makes the DS-3T0510HP a practical choice for surveillance systems that include motorised, high-power PTZ devices as part of the camera mix.
Factories, Warehouses, and Plant Rooms
The -40 degrees C to 75 degrees C operating range, fan-free aluminium housing, DIN rail mounting, and 6kV surge protection make this switch directly suited to industrial environments where heat, dust, and electrical disturbance are ongoing considerations.
Outdoor Enclosures and Remote Cabinets
DIN rail mounting allows the DS-3T0510HP to be installed inside weatherproof or temperature-controlled outdoor enclosures at remote camera positions. Its wide temperature tolerance and fan-free design reduce maintenance concerns in enclosures that are not actively climate-controlled.
Fibre-Backhaul Surveillance Networks
The 2 Gigabit SFP ports allow a remote camera cabinet to connect back to a core switch or NVR network over fibre, eliminating copper distance limitations between buildings or network segments. This is useful for large industrial sites and multi-zone surveillance installations.
Extended-Range Camera Runs
Long-range transmission support up to 300m provides additional flexibility for camera positions on large perimeters, transport infrastructure, or open industrial yards where cameras sit beyond the standard 100m Ethernet cable limit and running a secondary switch is not practical.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: Your installation requires DIN rail mounting in an industrial or outdoor cabinet, includes Hi-PoE devices drawing above 30W on one or both of the first 2 ports, needs fibre uplink connectivity via SFP ports, or involves camera cable runs approaching or exceeding 100m where long-range transmission mode is required.
- Choose a different model if: You need more than 110W of total PoE budget across 8 ports, require a managed switch with VLAN, QoS, or remote monitoring capabilities, or are deploying in a standard office or low-power camera environment where a compact unmanaged desktop PoE switch would be sufficient and more cost-effective.
FAQs
- What is the DS-3T0510HP designed to do in a surveillance network?
The DS-3T0510HP is an unmanaged industrial Hi-PoE switch that powers and connects IP cameras, PTZ cameras, and other PoE devices over Gigabit Ethernet while also providing fibre uplink capability via 2 SFP ports. It is built for CCTV networks in industrial, remote, or harsh-environment locations where a standard desktop switch would not be appropriate.
- How does the 110W PoE budget work across the 8 ports?
The 110W is a shared total across all 8 PoE ports. Ports 1 and 2 can each draw up to 90W for Hi-PoE devices, but that headroom is drawn from the same 110W pool. If a Hi-PoE device on Port 1 draws 60W and one on Port 2 draws 30W, only 20W remains for the other 6 ports combined. Careful power budgeting before deployment is essential.
- Which ports support Hi-PoE and what standard does it use?
Ports 1 and 2 support up to 90W Hi-PoE output under IEEE 802.3bt. The remaining 6 PoE ports support up to 30W each under IEEE 802.3at. All ports also support IEEE 802.3af devices. Connected devices must be compatible with these standards for high-power delivery to function correctly.
- Does the DS-3T0510HP include SFP modules?
No, SFP fibre modules are not included with the switch. The 2 Gigabit SFP ports accept separately sourced SFP modules. Confirm the correct module type for your fibre cable type and link distance before installation, as different SFP modules support different fibre modes and reach specifications.
- How does the 300m long-range transmission work?
Long-range mode allows supported Ethernet cable runs up to 300m. This operates at reduced speed compared to standard Gigabit mode and depends on cable quality, connected device compatibility, actual power draw, and installation conditions. Not all cameras or cable configurations will achieve the full 300m range, so test the specific cable and device combination before committing to long runs.
- Can this switch be installed in an outdoor or harsh-environment enclosure?
Yes. The DS-3T0510HP operates from -40 degrees C to 75 degrees C and uses a fan-free aluminium alloy design, which removes the failure point of a cooling fan in dusty or contaminated environments. DIN rail mounting supports installation in standard industrial enclosures. The switch itself is not rated for direct outdoor exposure and must be housed inside an appropriate enclosure.
- What power supply does the DS-3T0510HP require?
The switch requires an external 48-57VDC, 2.5A power supply, which is not included. Maximum power consumption is rated at 120W when PoE ports are under load. Ensure the external power supply is rated to meet the combined switch and PoE load requirements for the specific installation, particularly if Ports 1 and 2 are driving high-power devices. Security Wholesalers can assist with sourcing compatible accessories for this switch.
- Is this switch managed or unmanaged?
The DS-3T0510HP is an unmanaged switch with plug-and-play operation. It does not support VLAN configuration, QoS settings, SNMP monitoring, or remote management. This simplifies deployment for straightforward camera network installations but means it is not suitable for network environments that require traffic segregation, prioritisation, or centralised switch management.
