D-Link DGS-1210-10P8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Smart Managed Switch

D-Link DGS-1210-10P Smart Managed PoE+ Switch

A certified refurbished smart managed PoE+ switch with 8 Gigabit PoE+ ports sharing a 65 W power budget, plus 2 Gigabit SFP uplinks and 20 Gbps switching capacity. Runs fanless, sits on a desk or in a rack, and drives IP cameras, VoIP handsets and wireless access points without a separate injector. Backed by a 12-month warranty from Reboot IT.

Key Benefits

• Power and data on one cable — all eight Gigabit ports supply IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+, so cameras, phones and access points need no local power outlet and no injector.
• Two SFP uplinks — fibre or long-run copper back to the core without burning an access port, which matters when the switch sits in a ceiling space or an outbuilding.
• Managed, not just smart-sounding — VLANs, QoS, IGMP snooping and link aggregation, with L2+ static routing for simple inter-VLAN work that would otherwise need a router hop.
• Silent by design — fanless, so it can live in a meeting room, reception or under a desk without the whine a fan-cooled switch brings into a quiet space.
• Surveillance mode — a dedicated management view aimed at camera deployments, alongside the standard interface, which shortens setup for an installer who is not a network engineer.
• Runs lean — IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet plus time-based PoE scheduling, so ports can power down out of hours instead of drawing all night.

Performance in Use

The 65 W budget is the number that decides whether this switch fits your job. Spread across eight ports it comfortably runs a handful of IP cameras or VoIP handsets, which typically draw 4–13 W each. What it will not do is power eight high-draw devices at once — several PTZ cameras with heaters, or a set of 802.3at access points running at full tilt, will exhaust the budget before the port count. Add up the actual draw of what you intend to connect rather than counting ports.

Within that envelope it is a capable small-network switch. The two SFP slots let it sit at the end of a fibre run and still present eight powered copper ports locally, which is the usual answer for a camera cluster in a warehouse or a separate building. VLAN support keeps camera traffic off the office network, and QoS keeps voice intact when someone starts a large file copy.

Two things worth being plain about. It is a smart managed switch, not a fully managed enterprise unit — the routing is L2+ static, so there is no dynamic routing protocol here. And the 2 SFP ports are uplinks, not PoE: the 65 W budget applies to the eight copper ports only.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many devices can it actually power?

That depends on draw, not port count. The budget is 65 W across the eight copper ports. Typical IP cameras and VoIP handsets draw 4–13 W, so a handful runs comfortably. High-draw devices such as PTZ cameras with heaters or busy 802.3at access points will exhaust the budget well before you fill all eight ports.

Do the SFP ports supply PoE?

No. The two SFP slots are uplinks only. The 65 W PoE budget applies to the eight copper ports.

Is this a fully managed switch?

It is smart managed. You get VLANs, QoS, IGMP snooping, link aggregation and L2+ static routing through a web interface, but not the dynamic routing protocols or CLI depth of a fully managed enterprise switch.

Is it noisy?

No. The DGS-1210-10P is fanless, so it is silent and suits reception areas, meeting rooms and classrooms where a fan-cooled switch would be intrusive.

Can it be rack mounted?

Yes. It sits flat on a desk or shelf, or mounts in a rack.

What is surveillance mode?

An alternative management interface built around camera deployments, showing connected cameras and PoE status in a view aimed at installers rather than network engineers. The standard interface is always available.

What is shipping and delivery like?

Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout. Orders placed before the daily cut-off are typically dispatched the same business day from our Melbourne warehouse.
