Quiet, Reliable Gigabit Switching for Your Growing Network
When you need to expand your office or surveillance network without adding noise or complexity, the SG1602-R 16-port Gigabit unmanaged rack mount switch with 2 SFP slots delivers. It’s built for IT admins and installers who want straight-forward, dependable connectivity right out of the box. With 16 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 ports and two dedicated Gigabit SFP uplinks, you can connect a mix of devices—IP cameras, access points, PCs, NAS—and still have fiber reach for linking to a core switch or distant building.
Unlike many small switches that rely on noisy fans, this model uses a fanless metal enclosure and internal power supply to run silently. That means you can mount it in a rack in an open office, classroom, or retail back room without disturbing anyone. The sturdy metal housing also improves heat dissipation, so the switch stays cool during 24/7 operation.
One standout feature is the physical mode switch on the front panel. A single toggle lets you choose between Standard (default), VLAN isolation, and Flow Control modes. In VLAN mode, ports 1-16 are isolated from each other but can still communicate with the SFP uplinks—perfect for IP camera deployments where you want to prevent broadcast traffic between cameras. Flow Control mode helps avoid packet loss when connecting to slower devices. No software, no CLI—just flip the switch and you’re set.
With a 56Gbps switching capacity and 41.67Mpps forwarding rate, every port runs at wire speed. The 8K MAC table and 4.1Mbit buffer keep traffic moving smoothly even under load. Plus, built-in 6KV surge protection on all ports adds a layer of defense against electrical spikes—valuable for outdoor camera links or unstable power environments.
Whether you’re setting up a small business LAN, expanding an IP surveillance system, or adding temporary network drops in a hotel or school, this unmanaged rack mount switch gives you the performance and quiet operation you need without the overhead of managed features.
