Your Powerhouse for Demanding Network Devices
No more cable clutter and underperforming power supplies. The Zyxel GS1900-24HP v2 is more than just a data distributor – it's the pulsating heart of your Network. With a generous PoE budget of 170 Watts, you can power up to 24 devices directly via the Ethernet Cable. Whether power-hungry WiFi 6 Access Points, 4K surveillance IP Cameras, or professional VoIP phones: this Ethernet Switch delivers the necessary power stably and reliably. Thanks to intelligent consumption mode, power is only supplied when it's truly needed. This protects the environment and maximizes the number of devices you can connect.
Intelligent Control with Smart-Managed Functions
An unsecured Network is an open door for problems. With the GS1900-24HP v2, you take the reins yourself. As a 'Smart Managed' Ethernet Switch, it offers you professional Network features usually found only in significantly more expensive devices. Securely separate your guest Network from the internal company Network with 802.1Q VLANs. Prioritize important applications like video conferences with Quality of Service (QoS) to guarantee smooth transmission. And with functions like Port Security, DHCP Snooping, and Loop Protection, you actively protect your Network from threats and failures.
Future-Proof Connectivity Thanks to Gigabit SFP Uplink
While the 24 copper ports supply your local devices, the two dedicated SFP Ports look to the future. These interfaces are your ticket to fast and interference-free fiber optic connections. Connect a distant part of a building, link the Ethernet Switch to a central server rack, or create a high-performance uplink to the next distributor. You don't sacrifice any of the 24 PoE Ports and secure maximum performance and flexibility for growing requirements.
Quiet, Cool, and Built for Continuous Operation
Powerful technology doesn't have to be loud. Zyxel has equipped the GS1900-24HP v2 with an intelligent fan that dynamically adjusts its speed to the system temperature. The result: almost silent operation in normal conditions, making it perfectly suitable for use directly in the office or in noise-sensitive environments. The robust 19-inch metal casing not only ensures optimal heat dissipation but also a long lifespan and a professional appearance in your Network cabinet or 19-Inch Racks.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: High 170W PoE+ Budget with intelligent management for maximum device Power Supply.
- Pro: Extensive Layer-2 functions such as VLAN, QoS, and LACP for professional Network control.
- Pro: Two dedicated SFP Ports for flexible fiber optic uplinks without port loss.
- Pro: Very quiet operation thanks to temperature-controlled 'Smart Fan', ideal for office environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I also operate devices without PoE with the Zyxel GS1900-24HP v2?
Yes, absolutely. The ports automatically detect whether a connected device requires PoE or not. You can easily connect PCs, printers, NAS systems, and other non-PoE devices to any of the 24 ports of this Ethernet Switch.
Is the Ethernet Switch easy to configure for beginners?
Yes, the Ethernet Switch features a web-based setup wizard that guides you through the most important configuration steps, such as VLAN and QoS settings. This significantly simplifies getting started, even for users without in-depth IT knowledge of Network devices.
How do I reset the Network Switch to factory settings?
To reset the Switch, press the "RESET" button for more than 6 seconds. The SYS LED will start flashing, and the Switch will restart. Afterwards, it will be accessible again via the default IP address 192.168.1.1 with the username "admin" and password "1234".
What does "Smart Managed" mean for this Ethernet Switch?
"Smart Managed" means that it offers more functions than a simple "Unmanaged" Switch but is less complex than a "Fully Managed" Switch. It provides essential professional functions like VLAN, QoS, and Link Aggregation via a user-friendly web interface, making it a versatile part of your Network.
Which devices can I power with the 170W PoE budget?
The 170W budget is sufficient to power, for example, 5-6 modern PoE+ WiFi Access Points or up to 15-20 typical Full-HD IP Cameras simultaneously. This makes it ideal for expanding your Network with various devices.
Do I need special SFP Modules for the fiber optic ports?
Yes, you need compatible Gigabit SFP Transceivers. Zyxel offers its own SFP Modules, but generally, third-party modules that comply with the SFP standard will also work. The choice of the SFP Module depends on the type of fiber optic cable and the distance to be covered, integrating seamlessly into your Network.
