Power and Performance for your PoE Devices
With the Grandstream GWN7701PA, you get not only Gigabit Ethernet Switch speed but also reliable power supply. All 8 Ports support PoE+ (IEEE 802.3af/at) and deliver up to 30W per port. With an impressive total 145W PoE Budget, you can easily power a variety of devices: whether IP Cameras for your surveillance, WiFi Access Points for comprehensive WiFi, or VoIP Phones for your communication – this switch has the power you need. It is also a robust 'set-and-forget' solution for environments with limited IT support.
Flexible, Robust, and Always Ready for Use
The Grandstream GWN7701PA is not only powerful but also extremely adaptable. Whether on the desk, on the wall, or professionally in a 19-Inch Rack – the appropriate mounting brackets are included directly in the scope of delivery. Its robust metal housing reliably protects the technology and ensures a long lifespan, even in more demanding environments. And the best part: Although it is unmanaged, it supports QoS (Quality of Service) with Strict Priority. This means that latency-sensitive data streams such as VoIP or video are automatically prioritized without you having to adjust anything. This keeps your important applications always smooth.
Your Smart Helper for an Efficient Network
The Grandstream GWN7701PA is more than just a simple switch. It is an energy-efficient Gigabit Switch that operates intelligently thanks to features like Auto MDI/MDIX and IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet). This not only saves energy but also makes installation even easier, as you don't have to worry about cable assignment. It is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to build or expand a stable, fast, and low-maintenance Network without having to forego important functions such as prioritizing critical data streams.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Plug-and-Play & No Configuration: The switch is extremely easy to install and immediately ready for operation, as it requires no software or manual configuration. This makes it ideal for users without in-depth network knowledge and for quick implementations in home offices or small businesses.
- Pro: 8 Gigabit PoE+ Ports with high power budget: All 8 ports support Gigabit speed and PoE+ (IEEE 802.3af/at) with up to 30W per port and a generous total budget of 145W. This enables reliable power supply for a variety of PoE devices such as IP phones, WiFi Access Points, and surveillance cameras.
- Pro: Versatile mounting options and robust design: The GWN7701PA can be flexibly mounted on the desk, wall, or in a 19-Inch Rack (rack mounting brackets are included). The robust metal housing also ensures durability and protection in various environments.
- Note: Unmanaged Switch without advanced management functions: As an unmanaged switch, the GWN7701PA does not offer advanced network management functions such as VLANs, Link Aggregation (LAG), SNMP monitoring, or port mirroring. It is not suitable for more complex network requirements or environments that require detailed control and segmentation.
- Note: No SFP/SFP+ Ports for Fiber Uplinks: The switch exclusively features RJ45 ports and does not offer SFP or SFP+ slots for fiber optic connections. This limits the ability to bridge longer distances or establish a high-speed uplink connection to a core switch via fiber optics.
