Hikvision DS-3E1526P-EI 24-Port PoE Switch
Hikvision DS-3E1526P-EI 24-port PoE switch provides high-performance Gigabit connectivity combined with intelligent PoE management. This smart managed switch includes 24 Gigabit PoE ports and 2 Gigabit SFP uplink ports. Additionally, it supports extended transmission distances up to 300 meters. Therefore, it suits large-scale IP surveillance deployments effectively. Moreover, its fanless metal design ensures quiet and reliable operation.
Use Cases and Compatibility
Hikvision DS-3E1526P-EI 24-port PoE switch meets the demands of extensive surveillance projects. For example, large corporate campuses use it to power and connect 24 high-resolution IP cameras across various areas. These include office floors, reception zones, conference rooms, warehouses, loading docks, and parking facilities. Similarly, retail chains rely on it for complete store coverage, such as sales floors, corridors, back offices, stockrooms, and perimeter zones.
Furthermore, university campuses secure wide facilities with it. They monitor lecture halls, administrative buildings, libraries, dormitories, laboratories, sports complexes, and outdoor walkways. In addition, hospitals apply it to cover patient wards, emergency areas, operating theaters, waiting rooms, corridors, and large parking structures. Finally, industrial complexes, logistics hubs, and smart city projects benefit from its capacity. They achieve reliable perimeter security, facility oversight, traffic monitoring, and operational surveillance across broad sites.
The switch complies with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at PoE standards. Thus, it powers Hikvision IP cameras, PTZ domes, bullet cameras, multi-sensor units, wireless access points, and IP video intercoms. Moreover, long-range mode extends data and power delivery up to 300 meters. As a result, it supports cameras placed far from the switch. Meanwhile, the PoE watchdog feature automatically detects and reboots unresponsive devices. Consequently, continuous operation remains assured. Furthermore, VLAN support segments traffic effectively. This improves network security and reduces broadcast congestion. In addition, STP/RSTP prevents network loops in complex topologies.
Dual Gigabit SFP uplink ports offer flexible high-speed connections. For instance, they link to core switches, routers, NVRs, or fiber transceivers. Additionally, smart management features enhance usability. These include one-click Hikvision Protocol Prioritization (HPP), real-time topology mapping, health monitoring, and alarm notifications. Therefore, configuration becomes straightforward through the web interface. Moreover, Hik-Connect integration enables remote status monitoring.
