DAHUA DH-CS4006-4ET2GT-60

The Dahua DH-CS4006-4ET2GT-60 is an intelligent Layer 2 cloud-managed PoE switch designed for efficient deployment in IP camera surveillance systems and small enterprise networks. It provides a balance of power delivery, network stability, and remote management capabilities.

It comes with 6 Ethernet ports in total:

• 4 × Fast Ethernet PoE ports (10/100 Mbps) for powering IP cameras and other PoE devices
• 2 × Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) for high-speed connection to NVRs, routers, or backbone networks

The switch supports a total PoE budget of up to 60W, with advanced support for IEEE 802.3af/802.3at and Hi-PoE, allowing it to power standard IP cameras as well as higher-power devices. One port can deliver up to 60W Hi-PoE, while the others typically support up to 30W each depending on configuration.

A key advantage of this model is its smart cloud management via Dahua DoLynk Care, enabling remote monitoring, configuration, and troubleshooting through a mobile app or web platform. This reduces onsite maintenance and simplifies multi-site installations.

It also includes advanced surveillance network features such as:

• PoE Watchdog – automatically reboots unresponsive IP cameras
• Long-distance PoE transmission up to 250 meters (in extended mode at reduced speed)
• VLAN support for network segmentation and security
• Loop protection to prevent network failures and broadcast storms

The device is designed with a compact metal housing, fanless operation, and low power consumption, making it suitable for 24/7 CCTV environments such as homes, offices, shops, warehouses, and small commercial buildings.

Overall, the DH-CS4006-4ET2GT-60 is a powerful, installer-friendly PoE switch that combines 60W PoE power delivery, gigabit uplinks, and cloud-based management for modern surveillance networks.
