16-Port Gigabit Easy Managed Switch

The TP-Link ES216G provides sixteen RJ45 ports operating at 10/100/1000 Mbps for small business networks. It supports Layer 2 management features including VLAN, QoS and link aggregation. The switch fits desktop or 1U rack mounting and runs on 100-240 VAC power.

Fanless operation with 8.40 W draw

The switch consumes 8.40 W while delivering full wire-speed switching across all ports. Its fanless design eliminates audible noise, making it suitable for quiet office environments. Operating temperature range spans -5 °C to 50 °C without active cooling.

Omada centralised management platform

The ES216G integrates with the Omada Software Defined Networking platform for cloud or on-premises control. Administrators can configure VLANs, QoS policies and port mirroring from a single dashboard. No separate licence fees are required for the management software.

Questions about this item

How do I install the ES216G in a rack and what step is often missed?

Mount the 1U chassis using the included brackets; the step often missed is securing both front and rear brackets to prevent the unit from sagging under cable weight.

What maintenance will the ES216G need over time?

No fan is present, so only occasional dust removal from the ventilation slots is required; there are no user-replaceable modules or batteries.

What limit appears first when the ES216G runs at full load continuously?

The 4 Mbit buffer fills first during sustained bursts, causing frames to be dropped before the 8.40 W power ceiling or 50 °C temperature limit is reached.
