TP-LINK - LS1016G - 16-Port Gigabit Desktop/Rackmount Unmanaged Switch

LS1016G — 16-Port Gigabit Desktop/Rackmount Unmanaged Switch

The TP-Link LS1016G is a 16-port gigabit unmanaged switch in a desktop or rack-mountable case, with 16 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports and a switching capacity of 32 Gbps. It is plug and play, with no PoE output, so it is a simple way to add wired ports to an office, shop or CCTV network.

What the LS1016G is for

TP-Link make the LS1016G as an unmanaged network switch: connect the cables and it works, with auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDIX on every port, so there is nothing to configure. Each port runs at up to 1 Gbps, which suits PCs, printers, NVRs and other wired devices.

The LS1016G does not supply PoE, so IP cameras and access points connected to it need their own power or a PoE injector. If you want to power cameras from the switch, look at our TP-Link PoE switches instead.

Full specification

What you will need

You need network cable for each device (Cat5e or above for gigabit links) and a mains socket for the switch. It gives no PoE, so powered devices need a separate supply. Rack mounting needs a free 1U space in a 19-inch cabinet.

Buying from Zenith Security Co.

We are a supplier, not an installer. We will go through the LS1016G with you before you buy (the number of ports you need, the port speed against your devices and how any cameras or access points will be powered) and depending on your requirements and your area we can recommend a qualified trade installer. We have been operating since 2012 and you can visit our trade counter in Wolverhampton.

Does the LS1016G support PoE?

No. The LS1016G is a non-PoE switch. Devices that need PoE must be powered separately, for example with a PoE injector, or you can choose a TP-Link PoE switch.

Is the LS1016G managed, and does it need an Omada controller?

No. It is an unmanaged plug and play switch, so it has no web interface and does not need an Omada controller or any configuration.

How fast are the ports on the LS1016G?

All 16 RJ45 ports are 10/100/1000 Mbps, so each device can link at full gigabit speed. If you need a different speed or port count, see the TL-SG1016.

What is the operating temperature of the LS1016G?

TP-Link rate the LS1016G for 0°C to 50°C, with 10% to 90% non-condensing humidity.

Can the LS1016G be rack mounted?

Yes. TP-Link sell it as a desktop/rackmount switch and include rackmount kits and rubber feet in the box.

Is the LS1016G silent?

Yes. TP-Link list it as fanless, so it runs silently.
