D-Link DGS-F1026P 24-Port Gigabit PoE Switch + 2 SFP (250m Support)
The D-Link DGS-F1026P is a 24-port Gigabit PoE switch designed for medium-sized camera and access-point deployments that need serious power capacity in one device. It provides 24 PoE/PoE+ ports supporting IEEE 802.3af/at, delivering up to 30W per port and a 250W total PoE power budget, enough to run two dozen mid-range IP cameras or a mix of cameras, phones, and access points simultaneously. A standout detail is that ports 1-8 support Long Reach Extend mode, pushing power and data up to 250 meters at a reduced 10Mbps, while the remaining ports 9-24 operate at standard Gigabit distances. Consequently, installers can dedicate the first 8 ports to distant perimeter cameras and use the rest for closer devices on the same switch. Two Gigabit SFP uplink ports round out the interface, giving a fiber path back to a core switch or NVR without consuming any of the 24 copper ports. Built with 6kV surge protection and a 52 Gbps switching fabric, the DGS-F1026P suits medium businesses, gated estates, and commercial buildings across Nairobi and beyond that are scaling up CCTV or Wi-Fi coverage without moving to a fully managed switch.

Best Suited For
- Medium-scale CCTV installations covering 15-24 cameras, using the Extend ports for distant perimeter units and standard ports for nearby ones
- Gated estates and commercial buildings needing a fiber uplink to a central NVR or core switch alongside dense local PoE coverage
- IT installers scaling up from smaller PoE switches, since the 250W budget comfortably supports a mixed fleet of cameras, phones, and access points
