Riadený L2 Gigabit Ethernet switch Cudy GS2018PS2 16 portov PoE

The Cudy GS2018PS2 Managed L2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch provides 16 RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE support and two uplink ports designed for mid-size wired networks. It delivers a switching capacity of 40 Gbit/s and maintains up to 8,000 MAC address entries for efficient layer‑2 forwarding and network segmentation. The switch offers IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE compatibility with a 200W total PoE power budget, auto-sensing power allocation and a metal chassis with active cooling to support sustained operation.

Advantages

The device combines full Gigabit connectivity on 16 access ports with PoE+ capability, allowing installation of powered devices without separate power cabling. Two uplink Gigabit ports and two SFP slots provide flexible aggregation and fiber connectivity options. Built-in heat dissipation through a metal enclosure, vents and an internal fan supports continuous performance, and a high-quality TPS PoE chipset improves power delivery stability. The managed L2 feature set and a MAC table sized for 8,000 entries support network segmentation and control for business or institutional deployments.

Suitable for

• Small and medium business wired LANs requiring PoE for IP phones, access points or cameras
• Office floors or branch sites that need multiple powered endpoints with centralized power budget
• Network edge aggregation with uplink to core switches or fiber links via SFP
• Environments where continuous operation and heat management are important

• Switch type: Managed Layer 2 with support for common IEEE 802.1x/802.1Q/802.1p/802.1D/802.3ad features
• Physical: metal housing in black color with built-in fan and venting for heat dissipation
• Reliability: electrostatic protection (contact 6 kV, air 8 kV); MTBF > 50,000 hours

How to use

Install the switch in a rack or on a flat surface, connect network devices to the 16 Gigabit PoE ports and use the uplink ports or SFP slots to connect to the distribution or core switch. Configure management features over the console or web/CLI interface according to your VLAN, QoS and security requirements. Monitor PoE power allocation and prioritize key ports to ensure critical devices receive continuous power. Allow adequate ventilation around the metal chassis so the built-in fan and vents can maintain appropriate operating temperatures.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, distribute the 200W PoE budget according to device power requirements and enable port prioritization for essential endpoints. Use SFP uplinks for longer fiber runs and keep clearance around the unit to ensure effective heat dissipation. Follow standard grounding and electrostatic precautions when installing in shared equipment rooms.
