The D-Link DES-F1018P-E 18 Port 10/100 Switch with 16 PoE Ports enables you to connect Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices such as wireless access points (APs), IP cameras, and IP phones to the network. The DES-F1018P-E can also connect other Ethernet devices like computers, printers, and a Network Attached Storage (NAS) to fit into any type of network application.
Power over Ethernet
DES-F1018P-E features sixteen10/10 0BASE-T ports that support the IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at PoE protocols, supplying up to 30W on each PoE port and Port 1-8 can support up to 250m, and providing a total power budget of 150W. You can connect compatible devices to the DES-F1018P-E without using an additional power supply. This allows you to save on cabling and to install devices in locations without immediate access to power outlets.
High Performance
The DES-1018P-E features plug and play installation and requires no configuration Auto MDI/MDI-X support on all ports removes the need for crossover cables when connecting to another switch or hub, and auto-negotiation on each port intelligently adjusts the port speed for compatibility with the connected device. With wire speed filtering and storeand-forward switching, the DES-F1018P-E maximizes network performance while minimizing the transmission of bad network packets. With Gigabit combo uplink port mean businesses can increase their network bandwidth using the speed of gigabit ethernet.
