Dahua DH-HS4408-4ET-60 - Industrial Hardened Managed PoE+ Ethernet Network Switch

Dahua DH-HS4408-4ET-60 - 8-Port Hardened Managed Switch with 4-Port PoE

The Dahua DH-HS4408-4ET-60 (HS4408-4ET-60 without the DH- prefix) is an 8-port hardened managed PoE network switch with 4-port PoE. Four RJ45 10/100 Mbps ports supply PoE to IP cameras and other devices, and four SFP 1000 Mbps ports provide Gigabit uplinks. It has a fanless full-iron housing for desktop or DIN-rail mounting and works from -30 to +65 degrees C. Dahua suggests scenes such as intersections, expressways and industrial zones.

Also listed as HS4408-4ET-60.

Key features

• Four 10/100 Mbps PoE ports (ports 1-4) and four SFP 1000 Mbps uplink ports (ports 5-8).
• IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE; the orange port also supports Hi-PoE up to 60W.
• PoE power: port 1 up to 60W, ports 2-4 up to 30W each, total up to 60W.
• Long-distance PoE up to 250m (bandwidth reduced to 10 Mbps) and PoE power consumption management.
• PoE watchdog automatically detects port status and restarts a failed port when an IP camera connection fails.
• Layer 2 managed: VLAN, STP/RSTP/ERPS, link aggregation, IGMP snooping, IEEE 802.1x and SNMP v1/v2/v3.
• Fanless design in an iron casing, with desktop or DIN-rail mounting.

Technical specification

Common questions

Do all eight ports supply PoE?

No. Ports 1-4 are RJ45 10/100 Mbps PoE ports. Ports 5-8 are SFP 1000 Mbps uplink ports and do not supply PoE.

How much power can each PoE port deliver?

Port 1 (the orange Hi-PoE port) can deliver up to 60W and ports 2-4 up to 30W each, with a total PoE budget of up to 60W across the switch.

How far can a PoE port reach?

With long-distance PoE a PoE port can reach up to 250m, with the bandwidth reduced to 10 Mbps.

Is it an industrial switch?

Yes. It is a hardened, industrial-grade managed switch: an industrial network switch with a fanless iron casing, DIN-rail mounting and a -30 to +65 degrees C operating range. As an industrial Ethernet switch it has four Ethernet PoE ports that follow IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at, powering IP cameras.

Can it be fitted on a DIN rail?

Yes. Dahua lists desktop mount and DIN-rail mount installation, and the switch has a fanless design in an iron casing.

What temperatures can it work in?

Dahua gives an operating range of -30 to +65 degrees C and 10%-95% non-condensing humidity.

How is it managed?

It is a Layer 2 managed switch with SNMP v1/v2/v3, 4094 VLANs, STP/RSTP/ERPS, link aggregation, IGMP snooping and IEEE 802.1x.

What does the PoE watchdog do?

It checks the status of each port and automatically restarts a failed port to recover the connection if an IP camera stops responding.
