Hanwha HV-GS980MX/52PSM -10 L3 Stackable Switch

When you're scaling surveillance deployments across multiple floors or buildings, bandwidth bottlenecks and single points of failure become real operational risks. The Hanwha HV-GS980MX/52PSM -10 addresses both with Layer 3 routing intelligence and stackable architecture, giving you a unified switching fabric that handles high-density camera arrays while maintaining network segmentation and redundancy. This is the backbone switch that lets you consolidate VLANs, inter-VLAN routing, and PoE distribution into a single managed platform.

Key Features

• Layer 3 switching with static routing and inter-VLAN routing capabilities for simplified network architecture
• Stackable design supports building resilient, scalable networks without complex uplink configurations
• PoE+ support across multiple ports delivers power and data to IP cameras and access points from a single cable run
• High port density accommodates large camera counts in rack-mounted installations
• VLAN support enables traffic segmentation between surveillance, access control, and corporate networks
• QoS prioritization ensures video streams maintain bandwidth during network congestion
• IGMP snooping optimizes multicast video traffic for NVR recording and monitoring workstations
• Fanless or low-noise operation suitable for equipment rooms near occupied spaces

The Layer 3 capability matters when you're running cameras across different subnets or buildings. Instead of forcing all traffic back to a core router, this switch handles inter-VLAN routing locally, reducing latency and simplifying your topology. Stack multiple units together and manage them as a single logical switch—critical for enterprise deployments where you need both horizontal scalability and control plane simplicity. The PoE budget supports mixed camera deployments including PTZs and multi-sensor units without requiring separate power infrastructure.

Deploy this as your distribution layer switch in medium-to-large installations, or as an access layer switch in very high-density zones. The combination of routing intelligence, stacking, and PoE makes it practical for integrators who need to support hundreds of endpoints without building overly complex network hierarchies. Fits standard 19-inch racks and integrates with existing Hanwha video management platforms.
