It provides plug-and-play wired connectivity for AV racks, meeting rooms, and equipment closets with no configuration. The fanless design runs silently while delivering 32 Gbps of non-blocking switching capacity. Desktop, wall, and rack mounting options give integrators flexible placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe GS516 16-port Gigabit unmanaged switch is a straightforward way to expand wired capacity at the access layer. All 16 ports auto-negotiate 10\/100\/1000 Mbps and use Auto Uplink (Auto-MDI\/MDIX), so straight-through and crossover cables both work without manual configuration. With 32 Gbps of switching bandwidth and an 8K MAC address table, it forwards traffic from AV-over-IP endpoints, workstations, and control devices at wire speed. There is nothing to set up; the switch begins working as soon as it is powered on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe durable metal housing includes a Kensington lock slot for theft prevention and supports desktop, wall, or 19-inch rack mounting with the included kit. A fanless design keeps the switch silent for placement in conference rooms and other occupied spaces. Energy-saving features include 802.1p QoS for prioritizing voice and video, auto power-down on unused ports, and auto green mode that adjusts power based on cable length. As a non-PoE switch, the GS516 is best paired with separate PoE devices for powered endpoints, and it integrates cleanly with the rest of the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/collections\/netgear\"\u003eNETGEAR switch collection\u003c\/a\u003e.
