Grandstream GWN7806P 48-Port PoE+ Switch with 6 SFP+

The Grandstream GWN7806P is a Layer 2+ managed switch with 48 Gigabit PoE/PoE+ ports on a 400W budget and six 10G SFP+ slots. It is meant for the main network room of a hospital, office tower or mall, where you need high port density and fast links between floors.

====

The Grandstream GWN7806P is a Layer 2+ managed switch with 48 Gigabit PoE/PoE+ ports and six 10G SFP+ slots, backed by a 400W PoE budget. This is the unit for the main network room of a hospital, an office tower or a mall: lots of ports in one rack, and fast links out to the switches on every floor.

Grandstream GWN7806P: 10G uplinks and core-room performance

• 48 × 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports, all PoE/PoE+
• 6 × 10 Gbps SFP+ slots
• 216 Gbps switching capacity, 160.704 Mpps forwarding, 16 Mb packet buffer
• 32K MAC table and 1K ARP/NDP entries
• Built-in 470W power supply and three cooling fans

Six 10G SFP+ slots

10G uplinks remove the bottleneck between switches. With a switch on each floor, connect them all back to the GWN7806P over 10G fiber and the network stays fast even while dozens of cameras record to a central NVR.

Plan the 400W budget first

Spread across 48 ports, 400W averages about 8.3W per port if every port powers a device. Check that against the maximum draw listed for your equipment. Any single port can deliver up to 30W, power is allocated dynamically, and PoE schedules can be set in the web UI. If most of your devices are power-hungry, such as PTZ cameras, splitting them across more than one switch may work better than loading them all here.

Built for the main network room

Two flash chips provide hardware-level dual boot, and system files are kept in a redundant copy, so the switch still starts if one image is corrupted. It supports 32 link aggregation groups, 64 spanning tree instances, 512 IGMP snooping groups and 256 ACLs with 4K total entries. Manage it from the web UI, GDMS Networking in the cloud or GWN Manager on-premise, with SNMP v1/v2c/v3.

Where the GWN7806P fits in KSA

• Hospitals: the aggregation switch for every floor, also powering phones and corridor access points.
• Office towers in Riyadh: one rack serving a full floor of phones and access points.
• Malls: 10G links from parking and CCTV switches into the control room.
• Universities and large schools: the aggregation point for a multi-building campus.

Installation

The chassis measures 440 × 301 × 44 mm and weighs 5.1 kg. It mounts in a 19-inch rack with the included brackets or sits on a desk. Input is 100-240V AC, and the operating range is 0 to 45°C, so give it a spot in an air-conditioned room.

GWN7806P or GWN7803P?

The GWN7803P has 24 PoE+ ports, 370W and four 1G SFP slots. The GWN7806P doubles the ports to 48, moves uplinks to six 10G SFP+ slots, on a 400W budget. The average power per port is lower on the GWN7806P, so if your devices draw a lot, two GWN7803P switches may suit you better.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much PoE power does each port get?

Up to 30W per port, as long as the total across all ports stays within 400W.

What speed are the fiber ports?

Six 10G SFP+ ports, numbered 49 to 54, for links to floor switches or servers.
