Description
Key Benefits at a Glance
- Compact design for desktop, wall, or rack installation
- Silent operation with no disruptive fan noise
- PoE+ power with a 124 W budget for connected devices
- Flexible management options via cloud, on-premises appliance, or controllerless mode
- Energy Efficient Ethernet for reduced power consumption when idle
Performance & Connectivity
The switch provides 16 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports with PoE+ support compliant with IEEE 802.3at, as well as 2 SFP uplinks at 1 Gbit/s. The maximum switching capacity is 176 Gb/s. With a PoE budget of 124 W, the device powers next-generation access points, IP phones, and surveillance cameras directly over the Ethernet cable.
Each port supports up to 30 W under 802.3at. IEEE 802.3bt2 with 90 W per port is not supported. The two SFP uplinks enable flexible fiber connections to upstream aggregation or core switches.
Layer-2 Features & Management
As an advanced Layer-2 switch, the device supports VLANs, QoS, Link Aggregation (LACP), IGMP Snooping for multicast traffic, and Spanning Tree Protocols (RSTP/MSTP). Port Mirroring and monitoring features simplify network diagnostics and troubleshooting. Security features include 802.1X authentication and Access Control Lists (ACLs).
Layer-3 routing (STATIC, RIP, OSPF), BGP, VxLAN, Multi-Chassis Trunking, MACsec, OpenFlow, and Campus Fabric Technology are not supported. sFlow is available for detailed traffic analysis. Management can be cloud-based, via an on-premises appliance, or controllerless, offering maximum flexibility for converged wired and wireless management.
Use Cases
The switch is ideal for small and medium-sized businesses, offices, retail stores, and conference rooms. Its compact design and silent operation make it suitable for environments with limited space and a need for a quiet workspace.
Typical applications include connecting WLAN access points, VoIP phones, surveillance cameras, and IoT devices. The switch integrates easily into existing networks and is well-suited for edge deployments at the network perimeter.
Scope of Delivery
The power cable is not included and must be purchased separately. For higher PoE requirements, larger models in the ICX8100 series may be available.
