The TPE-S160 16 Port 10/100Mbps PoE Switch from TrendNet allows for easy convenient network configuration. You can take advantage of a variety of features that make this switch easy to setup and manage. Initially, the Plug and Play functionality gets you going with minimal setup needed. Once plugged in you can then take advantage of the Power over Ethernet capabilities of this switch. Power over Ethernet, or PoE, enables you to run power through the Ethernet cabling to compatible devices, eliminating the need for additional power sources.
The full duplex ports found on this switch enable consistent data transfer. Full duplex ports allow for simultaneous data transfer not only increasing data speeds but efficiency as data no longer has to wait to be transferred. The TrendNet switch gives you more ports, thus allowing for more connections. With an enhanced switching capacity you have the expanded ability to transfer more data faster.
With integrated LED indicators you no longer need to delve into the configuration settings of the switch to display its various aspects. The on-off switch allows for increased power efficiency, making it simple to turn off the switch when not in use. If you have non PoE devices connected to the switch, the switch automatically recognizes them, cutting the power to those devices to conserve power.
