The Dell PC2716 is a 16-port managed Gigabit Ethernet switch from the Dell PowerConnect 2000 Series, making it a dependable option for office networks that are expanding and need room for more users, devices and network services.

Its port layout is 16 x 10/100/1000-BASE-T, giving you a clear, flexible mix of connections. For best results, pair the Gigabit ports with Cat5e or higher-grade cabling.

Switching sends each frame only where it needs to go, which keeps the network efficient.

Adding this unit expands capacity without a costly network redesign. The PC2716 is a practical building block for an office network that needs to be dependable without constant attention. Quote PC2716 when ordering to receive this exact configuration. Pair the switch with a UPS to keep critical connections running through short power interruptions.
