Switch PoE gestionado L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet Netgear GS116EPP — 16x RJ‑45 10/100/1000, 1x SFP, 8000 entradas MAC, gris

The Netgear GS116EPP is a managed L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet PoE switch offering 16 RJ‑45 10/100/1000 ports and one SFP fiber slot. Designed for small offices and edge aggregation, it supports Power over Ethernet controls, VLAN separation and IEEE networking standards including 802.1p and 802.3az for energy-efficient operation. The switch features a fanless design, desktop or wall-mount options and an 8000‑entry MAC address table to handle typical SMB traffic and connected PoE devices.

Advantages

The switch provides centralized PoE management with per-port prioritization, power limits and scheduling, enabling reliable deployment of access points, IP phones and cameras. Gigabit copper ports combined with an SFP fiber uplink allow flexible network topology and long-distance links. VLAN and QoS support allow traffic segmentation and priority handling, while Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces power use during low activity. Silent, fanless operation and multiple mounting options make it suitable for noise‑sensitive workspaces.

Suitable for

• Small and home offices requiring PoE for IP phones, cameras and wireless access points
• Edge aggregation where a mix of Gigabit copper and fiber connectivity is needed
• Environments needing VLAN segmentation and basic L2/L3 management
• Noise-sensitive spaces that require silent, fanless network equipment

Key specifications

• Ports: 16 x RJ‑45 10/100/1000 (PoE capable) and 1 x SFP fiber slot
• Switching: Managed L2/L3 functionality with QoS and VLAN support (port-based and 802.1Q)
• MAC address table capacity: 8,000 entries
• Energy: Supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az)
• PoE controls: Per-port prioritization, power limit per port and scheduling
• Design: Fanless, silent operation; desktop or wall-mountable
• Physical: Product colour grey; weight approximately 0.83 kg

How to use

Install the GS116EPP on a desktop or mount it on a wall using the supplied hardware. Connect powered devices to the RJ‑45 ports and use the SFP slot for fiber uplink if longer distance connectivity is required. Access the switch management interface to configure PoE policies, set VLANs and adjust QoS priorities according to network needs. Ensure devices are connected to compatible Gigabit ports and verify link/activity indicators for proper operation.

Recommendations

When deploying multiple PoE devices, plan PoE budgets by assigning per-port power limits and scheduling to avoid exceeding total available power. Use 802.1Q VLANs to separate voice, video and data traffic and enable QoS to prioritise latency-sensitive services. For longer uplinks, choose an appropriate SFP module compatible with the network's fiber type.
