Managed L2++ Grandstream GWN 7806PL PRO AV PoE Switch – 48GE, 2 SFP+

The Managed L2++ Grandstream GWN 7806PL PRO AV PoE Switch provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2 SFP+ uplink ports in a rack-mountable form factor. Designed for AV distribution and enterprise networks, this switch delivers Power over Ethernet to connected endpoints while supporting advanced Layer 2++ management features for VLAN segmentation, traffic control and quality of service. The device is intended for environments that require centralized network management, robust PoE delivery and high-capacity uplinks for aggregation to core infrastructure.

Advantages

This switch combines high port density with PoE capability to power cameras, access points, VoIP phones and AV endpoints without separate power supplies. Layer 2++ features enable flexible VLAN configuration, multicast and traffic shaping to ensure predictable performance for audio/video streams and business applications. Dual SFP+ ports provide 10 Gbps uplink options for connecting to aggregation switches or network cores, while managed features support remote configuration and monitoring.

Suitable for

• Enterprise office networks with multiple powered devices
• Audio/visual distribution systems and digital signage
• Campus or multi‑building network aggregation
• Security camera deployments requiring PoE and VLAN segmentation
• VoIP telephony and wireless access point backhaul

Key specifications

• 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports with Power over Ethernet support
• 2 SFP+ uplink ports supporting 10 Gbps fiber connections
• Managed Layer 2++ feature set including VLANs, QoS and traffic control
• Rack-mountable form factor suitable for standard 19-inch cabinets
• Support for multicast handling and IGMP snooping for AV applications

How to use

Install the switch in a standard 19-inch rack using the provided mounting brackets and connect the uplink fibers or copper links to the core network using the SFP+ or RJ45 ports. Connect PoE devices such as access points, IP cameras or VoIP phones to the Gigabit Ethernet ports. Use the switch’s management interface to create VLANs, configure quality of service policies and set power allocation for PoE ports. Monitor port status, bandwidth usage and system logs through the management console to maintain stable operation.

Usage recommendations

For best results in AV and enterprise deployments, plan VLAN segmentation and QoS policies before device commissioning, allocate PoE budget according to the power draw of connected devices, and use the SFP+ uplinks for aggregation to minimize latency and maintain high throughput.
