## Long description

The Mercusys MS118CP is an unmanaged 18-port rackmount switch designed to provide reliable network connectivity and power for small business and home office environments. Featuring 16 Fast Ethernet PoE+ ports and 2 Gigabit uplink ports, this device simplifies the deployment of network-connected hardware by delivering both data and electricity over a single cable. Its robust construction and plug-and-play functionality ensure that users can expand their network infrastructure without the need for complex configuration or professional technical support.
Advantages
This switch offers significant flexibility for network management through its dedicated PoE+ capabilities, which support the IEEE 802.3af/at standards. By providing up to 30W per port, it effectively powers high-demand devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones. The inclusion of an extend mode allows for data and power transmission over distances of up to 250 meters, making it an excellent choice for large-scale surveillance setups. Additionally, features like priority mode for critical ports and isolation mode for traffic separation enhance overall network security and performance, while the PoE auto-recovery function ensures continuous operation by automatically rebooting unresponsive connected devices.
Suitable for
Small and medium business office networks
IP surveillance systems requiring multiple camera connections
Powering wireless access points and VoIP phones
Home office setups needing reliable wired connectivity
This switch may not be suitable for high-bandwidth environments that require full Gigabit speeds across all 18 ports, as 16 of the ports are limited to Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps). It is also not intended for complex enterprise networks that require managed features like VLAN tagging, SNMP monitoring, or advanced traffic routing.
Key specifications
16 x 10/100 Mbps PoE+ RJ45 ports
2 x Gigabit RJ45 uplink ports
Switching capacity: 7.2 Gbit/s
MAC address table: 8000 entries
PoE budget: 190 W total
Rack-mountable design
Supports IEEE 802.3af/at standards
How to use
The Mercusys MS118CP is designed for immediate use right out of the box. Simply mount the unit into a standard 19-inch rack if required, or place it on a stable surface. Connect your network devices, such as IP cameras or access points, to the PoE ports using standard Ethernet cables. Connect the uplink ports to your router or main network switch to provide internet access. Once the power cable is connected to an AC outlet, the switch will automatically detect and power the connected devices without requiring any software installation or manual configuration.
What to consider before purchase
Ensure your connected devices are compatible with IEEE 802.3af/at PoE standards.
Verify that the 10/100 Mbps port speed is sufficient for your specific devices.
Check if your rack space supports a standard rackmount switch form factor.
Confirm that your total power consumption for all PoE devices does not exceed the 190W budget.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance in surveillance systems, utilize the extend mode to reach cameras located further away and ensure that critical video monitoring devices are connected to the priority ports to maintain stable data flow.
