Hanwha HV-GS980M/52PS-10 48-Port Managed PoE+ Switch
The Hanwha HV-GS980M/52PS-10 is a 48-port Gigabit managed Ethernet switch purpose-built for enterprise IP surveillance deployments. Combining integrated PoE+ power delivery with professional-grade layer 2/3 management, this switch provides centralized power and network control for large-scale camera systems while eliminating the need for separate power infrastructure.
Key Features
- 48 Gigabit Ethernet Ports with PoE+: Full 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, each capable of delivering simultaneous PoE+ (802.3at) power and data to connected devices
- 740W Total PoE Power Budget: Aggregate power allocation engineered to support 48 high-power PoE+ cameras or mixed deployments of standard and advanced network devices without oversubscription
- 4 x SFP Uplink Ports: Dedicated small form-factor pluggable ports for high-speed fiber or copper uplink connectivity to core infrastructure, enabling redundancy and scalability
- Managed Switch Architecture: Full layer 2/3 capabilities including VLAN configuration, QoS prioritization, port mirroring, and advanced network segmentation
- Hanwha Camera Optimization: Pre-configured and validated for seamless interoperability with Hanwha network camera products
Technical Highlights
The HV-GS980M/52PS-10 delivers enterprise-class switching performance with professional management features essential for surveillance infrastructure. The 740W PoE+ budget provides flexible power allocation across all 48 ports, supporting high-power megapixel and thermal cameras alongside standard IP devices. The four SFP uplink ports enable high-bandwidth connections to core networks and provide redundancy pathways for mission-critical deployments.
Managed switch functionality allows administrators to configure VLANs for traffic isolation, implement QoS policies to prioritize surveillance traffic, and enable port mirroring for analytics integration. This level of control ensures surveillance networks maintain performance isolation from general IT operations while maintaining centralized management visibility.
Applications
Ideal for medium to large-scale surveillance deployments in enterprise campuses, retail chains, municipalities, transportation hubs, and industrial facilities. The combination of 48 PoE+ ports and managed features supports:
- Multi-building surveillance networks requiring centralized power and control
- High-density camera deployments with advanced power budgeting
- Networks requiring traffic segmentation and QoS prioritization
- Environments with redundancy requirements via fiber uplinks

The HV-GS980M/52PS-10 addresses a critical infrastructure need for surveillance integrators: a purpose-built switch optimized for both power delivery and network management. The 740W PoE+ budget is particularly significant—it eliminates the oversized PoE allocation common in generic switches and provides predictable power budgeting for camera planners. The addition of managed layer 2/3 features distinguishes this from basic PoE+ switches, enabling traffic prioritization and network segmentation that prevents surveillance systems from consuming bandwidth needed for operational networks.
For system integrators deploying Hanwha camera systems at scale, this validated interoperability reduces deployment risk and commissioning time.
