Network switch Hikvision NS-0106P-35 — 6 ports, PoE support

Hikvision NS-0106P-35 is a compact 6-port network switch with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, intended for small networks and installations of IP devices. The unit offers six Ethernet ports that combine data transmission and power delivery over a single cable, simplifying wiring for cameras, access points and other PoE-capable devices. Its form factor and straightforward functionality make it appropriate for CCTV, VoIP endpoints and small office or home network environments where centralized powering and simple connectivity are needed.

Advantages

The switch integrates PoE on multiple ports to deliver both network connectivity and electrical power to compatible devices, reducing the need for separate power adapters and additional cabling. Its compact size enables installation in limited spaces such as network cabinets, small racks or behind equipment. The device is designed for ease of deployment and basic plug-and-play operation, allowing quick connection of IP cameras and access points without complex configuration.

Suitable for

• Small CCTV systems with up to six PoE cameras
• Small offices or home networks requiring a few PoE ports
• Installing wireless access points that accept PoE
• VoIP phones and other low-power networked devices

When it may not be suitable

The NS-0106P-35 is intended for small-scale deployments and does not replace managed or enterprise-class switches where advanced features such as VLAN segmentation, QoS configuration, Layer 3 routing or extensive traffic monitoring are required. For larger networks needing many ports, higher aggregate bandwidth, or advanced management capabilities, this compact PoE switch may be insufficient.

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 6 Ethernet ports with PoE support
• PoE capability: Power delivered over Ethernet to compatible devices
• Form factor: Compact desktop or small-rack installation
• Typical applications: IP cameras, access points, VoIP devices

How to use

Place the switch on a stable surface or mount it within a suitable cabinet. Connect the switch to your local network by linking one port to the router or upstream switch. Plug PoE-capable devices (IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones) into the PoE ports using standard Ethernet cables; these ports will supply data and power automatically when the connected device supports PoE. Use non-PoE ports, if available, for standard wired devices. Ensure the total power consumption of connected devices does not exceed the switch’s available PoE budget as specified by the manufacturer.

What to consider before purchase

• Number of PoE devices you need to connect simultaneously and total power draw
• Whether managed-switch features (VLANs, QoS, monitoring) are required
• Placement options and available space for a compact desktop switch
• Compatibility of cameras or access points with the switch’s PoE standard

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, route Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables of appropriate length and quality, avoid exceeding the switch’s PoE power budget, and place the switch in a ventilated location away from direct heat sources. If deploying multiple cameras or high-power devices, calculate combined power requirements and consider a higher-capacity or managed PoE switch when necessary.
