TEG-160WS specifications
The TRENDnet TEG-160WS and TEG-240WS are advanced managed Ethernet switches designed to cater to the demands of modern networks. Specifically engineered for businesses and organizations striving for reliability and performance, these switches offer robust features that enhance network management and operational efficiency.Starting with the TEG-160WS, this model features 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports that support a variety of connection types, ensuring high-speed data transfer. One of its key elements is the layer 2 managed capabilities, allowing administrators to optimize traffic and enforce security policies. With features like VLAN support, network segmentation becomes effortless, minimizing broadcast traffic and improving overall bandwidth performance.
On the other hand, the TEG-240WS boasts 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, catering to larger enterprises or environments with higher connectivity needs. This model extends its functionality with advanced management features, such as SNMP support, which allows for proactive monitoring and troubleshooting of network issues. Both switches incorporate IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, offering flexibility in network segmentation to enhance security and improve traffic management.
A notable characteristic of these switches is their support for Power over Ethernet (PoE), an essential technology that simplifies device deployment. With PoE capabilities, network devices, such as IP cameras, phones, and wireless access points, can be powered directly through the Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for additional power outlets and ensuring a more organized workspace.
In terms of performance, both models support a switching capacity that efficiently handles high data loads, ensuring minimal latency and jitter. They feature a fanless design, which not only allows for silent operation but also promotes energy efficiency, making them ideal for office environments.
Moreover, the built-in security features, including access control lists (ACLs) and port security, help protect against unauthorized access and potential threats, safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining network integrity.
The TRENDnet TEG-160WS and TEG-240WS embody a fusion of performance, reliability, and advanced networking technologies tailored to meet the evolving needs of modern businesses, making them excellent choices for those looking to enhance their network infrastructure.
