Switch de red Cudy GS1016L — 16 puertos Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000), 32 Gbit/s conmutación, montaje en rack

The Cudy GS1016L is a 16-port Gigabit Ethernet switch offering basic managed features for small office and home networks. It provides sixteen RJ-45 Gigabit (10/100/1000) ports, a MAC address table of 8192 entries and a switching capacity of 32 Gbit/s. The switch supports standard networking protocols and can be installed on a desktop or mounted in a rack; it is powered by an included AC adapter and features a fanless design.

Advantages

The switch supports multiple operating modes—Default, VLAN and Extend—allowing client isolation and extended cable reach where needed. Hardware-level features such as DSCP/802.1p QoS, IGMP Snooping and loop prevention improve traffic handling and reliability. Fanless cooling reduces noise for deployment in quiet environments.

Suitable for

• Small office or home network aggregation
• Environments requiring client isolation (public access points, guest networks)
• Installations needing simple extension of copper run length up to 250 meters at reduced speed
• Rack-mounted or desktop network deployments

Key specifications

• Ports: 16 × RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000)
• Operating modes: Default, VLAN, Extend
• Extend mode reach: up to 250 meters on ports 1–14 (speed limited to 10 Mbps)
• VLAN mode: isolates downlink ports from each other; downlink ports communicate only with uplink ports
• Quality of Service: DSCP and 802.1p packet priority handling
• Multicast: IGMP Snooping to forward multicast traffic only to relevant ports
• Loop protection: automatic port blocking on detected network loops
• MAC address table: 8192 entries
• Switching capacity: 32 Gbit/s
• Cooling: fanless
• Mounting: desktop or rack-mountable
• Power: AC power supply included

How to use

Place the switch on a stable surface or mount it in a standard rack. Connect uplink to your router or core switch via one of the Gigabit ports and attach client devices to the remaining ports. Use the VLAN mode to separate client-side traffic from other network segments, or select Extend mode on ports 1–14 when you need to increase copper distance—note that those ports will run at 10 Mbps in Extend mode. Configure QoS and multicast behavior according to your network requirements; loop prevention operates automatically to block ports if a loop is detected.

Recommendations

For longer cable runs use quality CAT5e/CAT6 cabling and enable Extend mode only when necessary; when performance and full gigabit speed are required, keep devices within standard Ethernet distances and use Default mode. Use VLAN mode to protect client devices from each other in shared network scenarios.
