NETGEAR GS316EP-100PES - 16-Port Managed Gigabit Ethernet Power over Ethernet Plus Switch, Black

The NETGEAR GS316EP-100PES is a 16-port Gigabit Ethernet Easy Smart Managed Switch with 180 W PoE+ and one SFP slot, designed for small and medium-sized offices. Fifteen Gigabit RJ-45 ports provide connections for desktop computers, access points, and IP cameras, while one SFP slot allows for a fiber uplink to a core router. With a switching capacity of 32 Gbit/s, the hardware handles local traffic efficiently across all active interfaces.

The non-stackable, desktop-sized chassis is suitable for offices without dedicated server racks. Administrators manage settings through a web-based interface. Network traffic can be segmented using VLAN tagging to isolate user groups, while Quality of Service (QoS) prioritises latency-sensitive data streams. Access control lists (ACLs) provide security, and additional tools—such as link aggregation and broadcast storm control—help stabilise network performance.

• 180 W PoE+ budget, capable of powering hardware across all 15 copper ports.
• Fanless design for silent operation, suitable for open-plan workspaces.
• MAC address table supporting up to 4,000 entries for tracking connected devices.
• Jumbo frame support up to 10,000 bytes for increased efficiency during large file transfers.
• Built-in DHCP client for automatic IP assignment.
