Product Overview
The D-Link DES-F1016P-E is a 16-port Fast Ethernet unmanaged PoE+ switch designed for reliable, plug-and-play network connectivity with enhanced Power over Ethernet (PoE) support — especially tailored for surveillance deployments, VoIP installations, and small to medium business networks. With extended 250 m PoE reach, sturdy performance, and easy setup, it simplifies powering and networking multiple devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without extra power adapters or complicated configurations.
Plug-and-Play Networking with PoE+ Support
The DES-F1016P-E is an unmanaged switch, which means it requires no setup, no configuration, and no management interface — simply connect devices and power them instantly. This makes it ideal for installations where simplicity and reliability are key, such as surveillance systems, retail POS networks, meeting rooms, and industrial zones.
What sets this model apart is its PoE+ capability. Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3at) allows the switch to deliver both data and electrical power over a single Ethernet cable to connected devices, reducing the need for separate power supplies and simplifying cable runs.
Extended PoE Range – Up to 250 m
A standout feature of the DES-F1016P-E is its long-range PoE support up to 250 meters, significantly beyond the standard 100 meter PoE limit. This extended reach lets you deploy network and PoE power to devices located far from your core infrastructure — such as:
Outdoor IP cameras
Parking lot surveillance
Perimeter monitoring
Remote wireless access points
By extending the PoE delivery distance, this switch offers flexibility and reduces the need for intermediate PoE extenders or repeaters in many scenarios.
16 Fast Ethernet Ports for Network Expansion
This switch includes 16× 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports, with several ports supporting PoE+ power delivery. This makes it a versatile hub for small and medium-scale deployments. Key advantages include:
Fast Ethernet connectivity — stable and reliable performance for most surveillance and business devices
PoE+ compatibility — power-hungry devices like PTZ cameras or VoIP phones can be powered directly
Unmanaged simplicity — no setup or software configuration needed
The combination of multiple ports and PoE+ capability means you can connect and power many devices from a single network point.
Reliable, Cost-Effective Performance
As an unmanaged solution, the DES-F1016P-E minimizes maintenance and reduces the total cost of ownership. It operates silently and efficiently without the need for advanced network management or IT expertise — perfect for environments where stable, hands-off operation is preferred.
The sturdy hardware design ensures consistent uptime and long-term reliability even under continuous usage.
