Overview
The Hikvision DS-3E1505P-EI is a compact, smart-managed 5‑port Gigabit PoE switch designed for small CCTV/IP camera deployments, SOHO and SMB networks. It offers four Gigabit PoE+ ports to power cameras or other PoE devices and one Gigabit uplink port, with web management and Hikvision management tool integration.

• 4 × Gigabit PoE+ ports (ports 1–4) + 1 × Gigabit RJ45 uplink
• Supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at (up to 30 W per port)
• Smart management: Web GUI, SNMP, LLDP, Hik‑Partner Pro / Hik‑Central Pro integration
• Features: VLAN (802.1Q), link aggregation, port mirroring, loop detection/STP/RSTP, PoE Watchdog
• Long‑range PoE mode (ports 1–4 up to ~300 m in long‑range mode) and 6 kV surge protection

Key use cases: powering and connecting IP cameras, small PoE device clusters, or as a compact uplinked switch for SOHO/SMB installations. Suitable for both DIY installers and commercial contractors.

Important verification note: Hikvision regional pages list differing total PoE budgets (commonly 45 W or 60 W depending on variant and power adapter). Before publishing or selling, confirm the exact PoE power budget and adapter rating on the supplied unit (check the adapter label and included datasheet).

Compliance & safety: Product pages list CE, RoHS and other regional approvals; check supplied datasheet for exact approvals (and UKCA if required). Installation should be performed by a qualified installer if used in commercial or safety‑critical systems. Use appropriate surge protection and grounding for outdoor camera runs.
