The Mercusys MS118CP is a high-performance 16-port rackmount switch designed for efficient IP surveillance and network connectivity. Featuring 16 PoE+ 10/100Mbps ports, 2 Gigabit RJ45 ports, and 2 combo Gigabit SFP slots, this device is ideal for small to medium-sized businesses looking to deploy a cost-effective and reliable network infrastructure. Whether you need to power multiple IP cameras or support other PoE-enabled devices, the MS118CP delivers solid performance with an impressive 190 W PoE power budget.
Features:
Product Overview:
- 16 PoE+ 10/100Mbps RJ45 ports and 2 Gigabit RJ45 ports.
- 2 combo Gigabit SFP slots for additional connectivity options.
- A 190W PoE power budget, supporting up to 30W per port.
- Extend mode supports data and power transmission up to 250 meters.
- Prioritization for ports 1-8 ensures optimal performance for sensitive applications like video monitoring.
- Isolation Mode enhances security by segregating client traffic.
- PoE Auto Recovery automatically reboots unresponsive devices for uninterrupted performance.
- Plug-and-play design allows for easy setup without requiring configuration or professional installation.
Key Benefits:
The MS118CP switch is engineered to meet the needs of businesses that require a simple, reliable, and scalable solution for both data transmission and power delivery. The 190W PoE power budget ensures consistent performance for IP surveillance systems, VoIP phones, and other PoE devices. The high-power output (up to 30W per port) is capable of supporting even power-hungry devices while maintaining stable operation.
Efficient and Long-Range Power Delivery
With its PoE+ capability and extended transmission range, the MS118CP supports power and data delivery up to 250 meters in extended mode. This is especially beneficial for remote devices like security cameras or access points that are far from power sources. In extended mode, port speed will be reduced to 10Mbps, but it's still more than enough for surveillance or other low-to-moderate bandwidth applications.
Advanced Features for Enhanced Performance:
The switch is equipped with features that enhance both performance and security. The priority mode for ports 1-8 ensures that critical devices like video cameras receive uninterrupted, high-quality power and bandwidth. For added security, the Isolation Mode separates client traffic, reducing the risk of interference or security breaches on your network.
