Product SKU: NS-0106P-35
Product Overview
The HiLook NS-0106P-35 is a compact 4-port Fast Ethernet unmanaged PoE switch designed for small CCTV, networking and other compatible PoE installations where straightforward power and data distribution is required. It provides four 10/100 Mbps PoE ports plus two 10/100 Mbps RJ45 uplink ports, allowing powered devices to connect through the switch while maintaining separate uplink connectivity to the wider network. With IEEE 802.3af/at support, a shared 35 W PoE budget and up to 30 W available on an individual PoE port, it suits lower-device-count installations where power requirements are carefully matched to the available budget. Extend mode supports transmission distances of up to 250 metres on PoE ports 1–4, making the NS-0106P-35 particularly useful for longer cable runs. Its metal housing and fan-free design also make it suitable for installations where compact size and quiet operation are desirable.
Key Capabilities
Four PoE Device Connections
Four dedicated 10/100 Mbps PoE ports provide network connectivity and compatible PoE power from the same switch, making the unit practical for small camera groups or other compatible powered network devices.
35 W Shared PoE Budget
The four powered ports share a total 35 W PoE budget, with a maximum of 30 W available from an individual port. This makes checking the combined power requirement of connected devices an important part of system planning.
Up to 250 m Extend Mode
Extend mode supports transmission distances of up to 250 metres on ports 1–4, giving installers a useful option when a powered device needs to be positioned farther from the switch than a short conventional network run.
Dual RJ45 Uplink Ports
Two additional 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports provide uplink connectivity without consuming one of the four powered ports. This provides useful flexibility when connecting the switch into a recorder-side or broader network arrangement.
Unmanaged, Fan-Free Operation
The NS-0106P-35 requires no managed-switch configuration and uses a fan-free metal enclosure. It is well suited to straightforward installations where additional PoE connectivity is needed without introducing network management controls.
Best For
- Small CCTV Systems: A practical option where up to four compatible PoE cameras or network devices need local power and network connectivity.
- Long Cable Runs: Extend mode provides up to 250 metres of transmission on PoE ports 1–4 where longer-distance positioning is required.
- Network Expansion: Useful where an existing recorder or network needs additional external PoE ports without replacing the main networking equipment.
- Quiet Indoor Locations: The fan-free metal design suits equipment cupboards, offices and other locations where continuous fan noise is undesirable.
Why Choose the NS-0106P-35
For buyers who only need a small number of PoE connections, the NS-0106P-35 avoids the size and complexity of a larger managed or higher-port-count switch. Its combination of four powered ports, two dedicated uplinks and long-range Extend mode makes it particularly useful when the switch needs to sit between a group of remote devices and the main network. The key consideration is its 35 W total PoE budget and Fast Ethernet interface, so it should be selected by matching both power requirements and network needs rather than port count alone. Available through Security Wholesalers, this model is a sensible fit when straightforward unmanaged PoE distribution and longer cable reach are more important than Gigabit connectivity or managed networking functions.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Do not select the switch based only on its four PoE ports. Add together the power requirements of all connected PoE devices and make sure their combined demand remains within the NS-0106P-35’s 35 W total PoE budget.
Buyer Tip: This is a Fast Ethernet switch with 10/100 Mbps PoE and uplink ports. If your installation specifically requires Gigabit Ethernet connectivity or a larger shared PoE budget, choose a switch designed for those requirements instead.

Small Camera Groups
Use the four PoE ports for a compact group of compatible network cameras where the combined PoE requirement remains within 35 W.
Long Driveways and Remote Areas
Extend mode can support cable transmission of up to 250 metres on PoE ports 1–4 when equipment must be positioned farther from the switch.
Additional PoE Capacity
Add external PoE connectivity to a suitable existing network without moving to a larger managed switch solely to gain additional powered ports.
Equipment Cupboards and Offices

Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need up to four 10/100 Mbps PoE connections, no managed-switch functions, a total PoE budget of up to 35 W and the option of long-range transmission on the powered ports.
- Choose a different model if: Your installation requires more than four powered ports, more than 35 W of combined PoE capacity, Gigabit Ethernet connectivity or managed networking features.
FAQs
- How many PoE devices can the HiLook NS-0106P-35 connect?
The HiLook NS-0106P-35 provides four PoE ports, so it can connect up to four compatible PoE devices directly. The important limit is the shared 35 W PoE power budget across ports 1 to 4. Each PoE port supports up to 30 W, but the combined connected load must remain within the switch’s total available PoE budget.
- Does the NS-0106P-35 support PoE+ devices?
Yes. Ports 1 to 4 support IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at, covering standard PoE and PoE+ power delivery. The maximum stated output is 30 W on an individual PoE port, subject to the switch’s 35 W total PoE budget. Check the power requirement of each connected device when planning a multi-device installation.
- What does the 250 m long-range mode on the NS-0106P-35 do?
The NS-0106P-35 includes an Extend mode for ports 1 to 4 that supports transmission distances of up to 250 metres. This is useful when a PoE device needs to be positioned well beyond a short local cable run. Cable quality, installation conditions and the requirements of the connected device should still be considered when planning a long-distance link.
- Is the HiLook NS-0106P-35 a managed network switch?
No. The NS-0106P-35 is an unmanaged switch designed for straightforward network and PoE distribution without managed-switch configuration. It uses store-and-forward switching and provides automatic MDI/MDI-X adaptation on its RJ45 ports. This makes it a practical choice where the installation needs additional PoE ports without VLAN configuration, web management or other managed-network features.
- What are the two uplink ports used for?
The two 10/100 Mbps RJ45 uplink ports provide network connections from the NS-0106P-35 to other network equipment. In a CCTV installation, an uplink can be used to connect the PoE switch into the wider network or recorder-side network path, while the four PoE ports serve powered devices. Having two uplink ports also provides additional flexibility when arranging a small network topology.
- Is the NS-0106P-35 suitable for quiet indoor installations?
The NS-0106P-35 uses a fan-free design in a metal enclosure, so there is no cooling fan generating continuous operating noise. Its specified operating temperature is -10°C to 40°C with 5% to 95% non-condensing humidity. For installations supplied by Security Wholesalers, placement should still allow suitable ventilation and remain within the published environmental limits.
- What should I check before choosing the NS-0106P-35?
Check three things first: the number of PoE devices, their combined power draw and the required network speed. The NS-0106P-35 offers four 10/100 Mbps PoE ports, a 35 W shared PoE budget and two 10/100 Mbps uplinks. Choose a different switch if the installation requires more PoE ports, a larger total PoE budget or Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.
