Hanwha HV-X250-18XS-10 10 Gigabit Layer 3 Stackable Switch
The Hanwha HV-X250-18XS-10 is a 10 Gigabit Layer 3 Lite stackable switch purpose-built for IP surveillance and network camera infrastructure. Designed for high-density fiber-based deployments, this enterprise-grade switch eliminates video transport bottlenecks and supports scalable, reliable surveillance architectures optimized for Hanwha network cameras and ONVIF-compatible systems.
Key Features
- 18x SFP/SFP+ Ports: Eighteen 10 Gigabit SFP+ fiber ports deliver high-capacity uplink and inter-switch connectivity for large-scale surveillance deployments without copper bandwidth constraints
- 10 Gigabit Layer 3 Lite Architecture: Wire-speed Layer 3 routing with simplified management overhead, providing network intelligence for VLAN segmentation, QoS, and traffic prioritization without full-featured core switch complexity
- Stackable Design: Multiple units stack for unified configuration, simplified management, and scaled redundancy across multi-switch deployments
- AlliedWare Plus Operating System: Industry-standard command-line interface (CLI) and graphical management interface for remote configuration and monitoring
- Form Factor: Stackable Switch architecture optimized for top-of-rack (TOR) deployment in surveillance network infrastructure
Technical Highlights
- Wire-speed Layer 3 routing capability with VLAN support and QoS traffic prioritization
- Compatible with Hanwha network camera products and ONVIF-compatible surveillance systems
- Allied Telesis switching ecosystem integration for extended network flexibility
- Fiber-based connectivity eliminates copper bandwidth limitations in high-density deployments
