Grandstream GWN7802P Managed Switch with 16 PoE+ Ports and 4 SFP

The Grandstream GWN7802P is a Layer 2+ managed switch with 16 Gigabit PoE/PoE+ ports on a 240W budget and four 1G SFP slots. It is sized for a whole floor of a school, clinic or mid-size office where phones, access points and cameras share one network closet.

====

The Grandstream GWN7802P is the middle model of the GWN7800 Layer 2+ managed switch range, with 16 Gigabit PoE/PoE+ ports on a 240W budget and four 1G SFP slots. Think of one floor of a school or a medical center: access points along the corridors, cameras on stairwells and entrances, IP phones in the admin offices, all cabled back to a single network closet. That is the job this switch is built for.

Grandstream GWN7802P by the numbers

• 16 × 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports, all PoE/PoE+
• 30W maximum per port, 240W total budget
• 4 × 1G SFP slots
• 40 Gbps switching capacity, 29.76 Mpps forwarding rate
• 128 MB RAM, 32 MB flash and an 8K MAC table

Four SFP slots for floors and buildings

Four fiber slots instead of two give you room to design properly. Use one to reach the core switch in the server room, another for a second building on the same campus, and keep the rest for growth. With 8 link aggregation groups you can bond two links together for extra bandwidth and a connection that stays up if one cable is damaged.

Separate networks for staff, cameras and students

In a school, put administration on one VLAN, CCTV on a second and student Wi-Fi on a third; the switch handles up to 4K VLANs. IGMP snooping stops multicast traffic from flooding every port, which matters once you add IP paging or internal video streaming. 128 ACLs with 1.5K total entries let you decide exactly who can reach which device.

Scheduled, demand-based PoE

Power goes to each port based on what the connected device really draws, not the 30W ceiling. In the web UI you can set on/off schedules per port: classroom access points go dark after the school day while cameras keep recording overnight. With all 16 ports loaded, 240W works out to about 15W per port, so compare that figure with your devices before you buy.

Where the GWN7802P fits in KSA

• Schools: a full floor of access points, cameras and admin phones.
• Clinics and medical complexes: reception devices and phones on their own segment.
• Mid-size offices: an IP phone on every desk plus ceiling access points.
• Residential buildings: entrance and parking cameras alongside an IP door intercom.

Management and installation

Manage it from the web UI, GDMS Networking in the cloud, on-premise GWN Manager or a GWN router, with CLI access over console, SSH and Telnet and SNMP v1/v2c/v3 support. The chassis weighs 3 kg and has a built-in 270W power supply. Mount it in a 19-inch rack, on a wall or on a desk.

GWN7802P, GWN7801P or GWN7803P?

The GWN7801P is smaller: 8 PoE+ ports, 130W, 2 SFP slots and 20 Gbps switching. The GWN7803P is larger: 24 PoE+ ports, 370W, 4 SFP slots and 56 Gbps. The GWN7802P sits between them with 16 ports, 240W and 4 SFP slots. Pick it when you have more than 8 devices and want headroom up to 16.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many PoE ports does the GWN7802P have?

All 16 RJ45 ports support PoE/PoE+ at up to 30W each, with 240W shared across them.

Can I connect it to another building over fiber?

Yes. It has four 1G SFP slots; fit an SFP module that matches your fiber type and distance.

Does it fit a 19-inch rack?

Yes. Rack brackets and screws are in the box, and it can also be wall-mounted or used on a desk.
