Product Features
Technical Overview
Built on Layer 2 switching architecture, the GS116PP supports auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX for seamless integration with existing network infrastructure. The 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports deliver full wire-speed performance, eliminating bottlenecks for bandwidth-intensive applications.
Power is supplied through an external 200W adapter included in the package, with support for interchangeable 90W, 130W, or 200W power supplies to adjust PoE budget as needed. The switch does not support redundant power supplies or modular expansion, keeping the design simple and cost-effective for basic connectivity needs.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

FAQ
How many devices can this switch power with PoE?
The Netgear GS116PP provides 183W total PoE budget across all 16 ports. With support for both 802.3af (15.4W) and 802.3at (30W) standards, you can power multiple PoE devices simultaneously—such as IP phones, wireless access points, or security cameras—as long as the total power consumption does not exceed 183W. The exact number of devices depends on their individual power requirements.
Is this switch manageable or configurable?
No, the GS116PP is an unmanaged switch designed for plug-and-play operation. It requires no software configuration, management interfaces, or setup procedures. The switch automatically handles network traffic with auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX features, making it ideal for environments where simplicity and immediate deployment are priorities over advanced management capabilities.
What mounting options are supported?
This switch supports three mounting configurations: wall mounting using the included wall-mount kit, rack mounting in standard 19-inch racks with the provided rack-mounting brackets, and desktop placement. The flexible mounting options allow installation in space-constrained environments like network closets, retail counters, or office workstations without requiring dedicated rack space.
Does the switch include redundant power supply support?
No, the GS116PP does not support redundant power supplies. It operates with a single external power adapter (200W included, with options for 90W or 130W interchangeable adapters). The design focuses on simplicity and cost-effectiveness for basic connectivity needs rather than high-availability features typically found in managed enterprise switches.
