Network switch DrayTek VigorSwitch P-2100 with 2 SFP+ and 8 Gigabit PoE+ ports

DrayTek VigorSwitch P2100 is a managed L2+ network switch with 8 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports and 2 Gigabit SFP uplink slots. Designed for small to medium offices and branch sites, the switch delivers up to 140 W PoE power budget to feed access points, IP phones and cameras while providing VLAN, QoS and basic routing features for segmented and efficient network traffic.

Advantages

The VigorSwitch P2100 supports PoE+ on eight ports with a 140 W budget, enabling centralized power delivery and simplified cabling for powered devices. As an L2+ managed switch it offers VLAN support for up to 256 virtual interfaces, QoS queues, link aggregation and a MAC table of 8,000 entries to handle moderate-sized LANs. Management and monitoring are available via SNMP (v1/2c/3), RMON and HTTP, while jumbo frame support (9 KB) and a switching capacity of 20 Gbit/s improve performance for mixed traffic profiles.

Suitable for

• Small and medium offices
• Branch sites and retail locations
• Powering Wi‑Fi access points, IP phones and PoE cameras
• Edge aggregation with fiber uplink to core network

How to use

Install the VigorSwitch P2100 in a rack or place it on a desktop surface and connect uplink fiber or copper to your core network via the SFP or Gigabit ports. Connect PoE devices to the Gigabit ports; the switch will supply power automatically up to the available 140 W budget. Configure VLANs, QoS, link aggregation and routing settings using the switch’s management interface (HTTP or SNMP) to segment traffic, prioritise latency‑sensitive services and enable redundancy where needed.

Usage recommendations

For stable operation in small office or branch deployments, plan PoE allocation so total powered device draw does not exceed the 140 W budget. Use SFP uplinks for higher-quality fiber connections to the core and enable QoS for voice and video devices to reduce latency and packet loss.
