Cost Effective, Reliable, Scalable and Secure Switch Solution for SMB NetworksTo increase the distance/speed of your network server and backbone connections. The Edimax Pro GS-5416PLC smart switch comes with web-based user interface, 16 Gigabit PoE+ ports and 4 RJ45/SFP combo ports for high-speed Gigabit and long-range copper or optical connections. With smart features in SNMP v3, PoE PD Alive Check, Dual Firmware, Voice VLAN, DHCP Snooping, QoS, CoS, STP, 802.1Q VLAN, IPv4/IPv6, Port Trunk, IGMP v1/v2/v3 Snooping and Mirror, the smart switch provides a cost effective, reliable, scalable and secure switch solution for SMB networks. The Edimax-specific long range mode enables power and data transmission to up to 200 meters at a speed of 10Mbps, tailored for IP cameras and far away network device applications. The PoE also features auto detection and power backfeed protection to efficiently provide power and, at the same time, avoid damaging the PoE ports. The Edimax GS-5416PLC is the ideal solution to increase the distance/speed of your network server and backbone connections. Gigabit High-Speed ConnectionComplies with IEEE802.3/802.3u/802.3ab/802.3z Gigabit Ethernet Standards, the GS-5416PLC features 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-speed, large file transfer and 4 SFP slots for long range optical fiber Gigabit Ethernet connections. 802.3at PoE with Auto Detection & Power Backfeed ProtectionThe GS-5416PLC features 24 IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) ports which supply up to 30W of electricity per port and has a total power supply of 330W (can provide 280W for PD)to power any 802.3at or 802.3af compliant power device. With PoE detection capability, the GS-5416PLC is able to verify whether the connected device is IEEE 802.3at or 802.3af compliant. If a PoE device is not detected, only network data will be transmitted. Moreover, with the PoE power backfeed protection from the passive PoE injectors, the GS-5416PLC is able to avoid damaging the PoE ports. PoE for Easy Installation and Better Cost EfficiencyPower over Ethernet technology enables the Ethernet cable to carry both data and power, reducing cable installation and eliminating the need for extension cords or electrical outlets on the walls and ceiling. The GS-5416PLC can effectively lower installation costs and simplify deployment effort. The GS-5416PLC can be used with different PoE products such as access points, IP cameras or VoIP devices and is an effective solution for network environments where power outlets are difficult to access. PoE Powered Device Alive CheckFeaturing PoE Powered Device (PD) alive check, the switch can be configured to monitor real-time status of connected PDs by ping action (sending alive-checking packets). If a PD fails to response, the GS-5416PLC PoE Switch will reboot the PD, which enhances the reliability of the network and reduces administrator management burden. Long Range PoE Distance Extension, up to 200 MetersThe long range mode provides extended power and data delivery distance to up to 200 meters while general Ethernet switches have a distance restriction of 100 meters. The long range mode operates on a per-port basis at 10Mbps full-duplex operation, ideal for devices such as IP cameras, IP phones and PoE-enabled IoT devices at a remote location. Dual FirmwareThe dual firmware feature allows switches to have two firmware in storage. You can denote one of these firmware as the active one and the other firmware as the backup. If the active firmware faces problems, you can activate the backup firmware right away to reduce down time.
