Cudy GS1018PS2 16-GbE PoE Switch with 2 Uplink GbE and 2 Uplink SFP

The Cudy GS1018PS2 is a robust and versatile 16-port Gigabit PoE switch designed for small to medium deployments such as IP camera networks, WiFi access point installations, and office-edge networks. With 16 full Gigabit PoE+ ports supporting the IEEE 802.3af/at standard (up to ~30 W per port) it powers network devices directly over Ethernet, simplifying installations by eliminating separate power supplies. The two additional Gigabit uplink ports and two SFP uplink slots enable backbone or long-distance fibre connectivity, providing flexibility for network expansion. Built-in features such as Extend mode (allowing extended cable reach for designated ports) and a Watchdog function (which can monitor and automatically reboot stuck PoE devices) enhance reliability and manageability in surveillance or access-point rich environments. Housed in a metal chassis with silent cooling and available rack-mount brackets, the GS1018PS2 fits neatly into both network racks and desktop setups, offering a dependable solution for powering and connecting PoE-capable devices in business and ISP contexts.
