The GS516TP offers network managers an affordable switching solution combined with advanced features and flexible power options. Its PoE and PD capabilities in a single device—an industry first for small and medium-sized businesses—allow the GS516TP to make network deployments independent of AC power outlets, providing maximum flexibility for network creation, modifications, and redesigns.
The GS516TP is part of NETGEAR's second generation of Gigabit PoE/PoE+ Smart Switches, which delivers powerful L2 and L2+ capabilities, enhanced PoE features, improved usability, and advanced performance. This new family is designed with converged networks in mind, where voice, video, and data are managed on a single network platform, and is optimized to provide network efficiency, cost savings, and ease of management.
The GS516TP is a 16-port Gigabit Smart Switch with PoE and PD capabilities, designed for small to medium-sized networks. It offers simultaneous PoE and PD operation. It comes with two PD ports that receive PoE power from any PoE source. Simultaneously, through its eight PoE ports, it can also power other connected devices such as Wi-Fi access points, phones, and IP cameras, making it the first switch designed for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with this capability.
Key features of the GS516TP:
• 16 Gigabit ports with 8 IEEE802.3af PoE ports and 2 PD ports capable of receiving PoE and PoE Plus (IEEE802.3at) power
• Flexible power options:
- Connected to an AC outlet with up to 76W of PoE data flow.
- Connected via PoE with up to 22W PoE limit.
• Comprehensive L2 features (VLAN, QoS, and security)
• Advanced features such as static routing, IPv6, MDP snooping, dynamic VLAN assignment, and protected ports.
