TRENDnet TI-PG160 16-Port Industrial Gigabit PoE+ Switch

Designed for demanding industrial networking environments, the TRENDnet TI-PG160 16-Port Industrial Gigabit PoE+ DIN-Rail Switch provides reliable Ethernet connectivity and Power over Ethernet for connected network devices.

Equipped with sixteen Gigabit PoE+ RJ-45 ports, the TI-PG160 supports data speeds of 10/100/1000Mbps and delivers up to 30W of PoE+ power per port. Its total PoE power budget reaches 300W when supplied with 56V DC, making it suitable for powering compatible IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP devices, and industrial network equipment.

The switch features a rugged IP50-rated metal enclosure designed for industrial environments where dust protection, vibration resistance, and extreme temperature operation are important. Its wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 75°C supports deployment in demanding facilities and infrastructure installations.

For improved power reliability, the TI-PG160 features redundant DC power inputs with overload current protection and an integrated alarm relay that signals input power failure. The six-pin removable terminal block provides connections for power inputs and the alarm relay.

With a 32Gbps switching capacity, 512KB data RAM buffer, 8K MAC address table, and support for jumbo frames up to 9KB, the switch provides efficient Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. DIN-rail and wall-mount brackets are included to accommodate different installation requirements.

The TI-PG160 is an unmanaged industrial switch, making it suitable for straightforward network expansion without requiring switch configuration. Its industrial PoE capabilities make it an effective solution for automation systems, security installations, factory networks, and other industrial applications.

Power supply is sold separately. TRENDnet specifies the TI-S48048 as the recommended power supply for the V2 model.
