Product features

• All your home or small business devices under one banner
  The DES-1018MPV2 is specifically designed to facilitate easy connections and supply of power to devices such as access points (AP) or IP cameras and phones. But that's not all, connect other Ethernet devices such as computers, printers and NASs to unify all your devices under one efficient network ready for any application.
• Far-reaching connectivity
  The DES-1018MPV2 features two operating modes: Isolation or Extended mode, each with their own use cases. If both modes are deactivated, ports offer 10/100 Mbps PoE connectivity as standard, with ports 1 to 8 prioritized to optimize the port cache.
• Isolation mode
  Prevents port-to-port communications, permitting ports 1-16 to communicate solely through uplink ports 17-18, where strengthened security measures are necessary.
• Extended PoE mode
  Have a device situated far away? The Extend mode facilitates long-range power delivery by enhancing ports 9 to 16 to supply power to devices that are situated far away.
• Better for your budget, better for the planet
  To help balance the budget, the DES-1018MPV2 supports IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE). This feature detects network activity, automatically putting unused ports to sleep and powering them on as required. The smart fan also automatically adjusts itself to reduce power consumption and noise when possible, so businesses can reinvest savings back into their business.
