SWITCH 16X 100MB POE+/2X 1GB/1X SFP UNMANAGED RACK 10" & 19" GIGABIT ETHERNET 150W

PoE+ switch is an indispensable active device in any network structure, using power transmission through structured cabling. RSFE-16P-2C-150 is dedicated to all installations: home, business, low-current, monitoring, IP, VoIP, cable TV networks, and in particular will find use in alarm, fire and access control infrastructures.

In addition to the primary function of the switch, i.e. handling Ethernet frame traffic between ports, it additionally provides power to each device in PoE/PoE+ - 802.3af and at standards. This makes it possible to provide up to 150 watts of total power to the devices. And all this together with simultaneous data transmission to them.

This saves resources, space and the time it would take to install a separate electrical and network installation. This is especially important if the network is dispersed and its end devices do not have access to a power source, even more so if they are mounted outdoors.

It is not always entirely clear how the switch will behave when the available PoE budget is exceeded. There are several possibilities: a port that exceeds the budget will be disconnected, or a random or the latest one connected. In the last case, what will be their order after a power outage and its restoration when they are all plugged into the switch at the same time?

Lanberg in the RS series switches has introduced an innovative solution that, through the simplicity of the principle of operation, eliminates any doubt about the mechanics of the operation of the ports.

At the moment when the PoE budget is exceeded (for example, by a device connected to port 1), the switch will start disconnecting PoE ports starting from the highest numbering until the sum of loads does not exceed the available budget; keeping the operation of the remaining ports intact. Those that are disconnected will remain in this state until the PoE load decreases.

The feature is primarily dedicated to demanding applications that emphasize security and continuity of operation, where some devices must operate continuously regardless of the situation. In such cases, Lanberg switches will allow the user to protect sensitive devices by connecting them to the lowest numbered ports.

The switch itself, as well as the devices connected to it, are repeatedly exposed to various hazards, including power discharges that can flow through both power and network cables.

With the safety of the devices as well as their users in mind, Lanberg has equipped the switch with an integrated discharge protection circuit, guaranteeing 6 kV protection for all ports, effectively reducing their damage from surges.

Under standard conditions, network operation will continue uninterrupted, the switch will continue working without any interruptions, and the user gains the safety of the device's operation, as well as the infrastructure.
