Switch PoE Fast Ethernet LevelOne de 16 portas, 802.3at/af PoE, 150W

LevelOne FEP-1612 is a 16-port Fast Ethernet switch offering 10/100Mbps connectivity with IEEE 802.3at/af Power over Ethernet (PoE) on its PoE ports. The switch supports auto MDI/MDI-X on all 16 ports and provides PoE injection compatible with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at powered devices, enabling data and power delivery over the same cabling. Housed in a 19-inch metal chassis, the FEP-1612 is suitable for campus, workgroup, departmental, enterprise, telecom and industrial Ethernet installations.

Advantages

The FEP-1612 delivers a non-blocking 3.2 Gbps backplane to handle increased LAN bandwidth demands and supports IEEE 802.3x flow control to reduce packet loss. Auto-detection and protection for non-standard PoE devices simplify deployment and improve safety. With auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX on all ports, installation is plug-and-play regardless of cable type.

Key specifications

• Ports: 16 x 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports with PoE
• PoE standard: IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at compatible
• Switching capacity: Non-blocking 3.2 Gbps backplane
• MAC address table: up to 4K MAC entries with auto-learning and aging
• Duplex and negotiation: 10/100 Mbps, full/half-duplex, auto-negotiation
• MDI/MDI-X: Auto MDI/MDIX on all ports
• Flow control: IEEE 802.3x Flow Control
• Chassis: 19-inch metal housing

How to use

Mount the FEP-1612 in a standard 19-inch rack or place it on a flat surface. Connect uplink and client devices using Cat5e or higher Ethernet cables; the ports support auto-MDI/MDIX so crossover and straight-through cables are interchangeable. Connect PoE-compatible devices directly to the PoE ports to provide both power and data. Ensure the total PoE budget is not exceeded by the connected powered devices and consult the device electrical specifications when planning deployments.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling, verify the total PoE power budget before connecting multiple high-power devices, and place the switch in a ventilated environment to maintain appropriate operating temperature.
