D-Link DGS-F1010P-E 10-Port Gigabit Switch (8 PoE + 2 Uplink)

Cable distance is the usual limiting factor once a PoE deployment grows past a handful of devices, and the D-Link DGS-F1010P-E is built specifically to solve that. This 10-port Gigabit PoE switch provides 8 PoE/PoE+ ports on IEEE 802.3af/at, delivering up to 30W per port within a 120W total power budget, enough to run a mix of cameras, phones, and access points from one unit. Its defining feature is Long Reach Extend mode, which carries power and data over cabling up to 250 meters, more than double the standard 100m Ethernet ceiling. As a result, it fits perimeter cameras positioned far from the server room, gate cameras on large compounds, or access points spread across a warehouse floor. Two dedicated Gigabit uplink ports let installers connect a router and an NVR at the same time without giving up any of the 8 PoE ports for that purpose. Housed in a fanless metal enclosure and backed by 6kV surge protection, the DGS-F1010P-E suits SME networks and CCTV installations across Nairobi and beyond where devices sit further from the switch than a standard cable run allows.

Key Features

• 8 x Gigabit PoE/PoE+ ports (802.3af/at) with up to 30W per port and a 120W total power budget
• Long Reach Extend mode carrying power and data over cable runs of up to 250 meters
• 2 dedicated Gigabit uplink ports, keeping all 8 PoE ports free for cameras or access points
• 20 Gbps switching fabric for smooth traffic handling across all ports
• 6kV surge protection, guarding connected equipment against lightning and power spikes

Technical Specifications

Best Suited For

• CCTV installers running cable beyond 100m, since 250m Extend mode reaches cameras standard PoE switches can’t power
• SME offices consolidating access points and phones, using all 8 PoE ports without exceeding a manageable power budget
• Installations needing separate router and NVR uplinks, thanks to the 2 dedicated uplink ports that don’t consume any PoE capacity
