Trendnet TEG-S3160 16-port Unmanaged 2.5G Switch

Product Description

The TRENDNET TEG-S3160 is a 16-port unmanaged 2.5G desktop network switch designed for high-throughput wired network installations. Each of its 16 ports delivers 2.5 Gigabit per second throughput, making it well suited for bandwidth-intensive environments where standard Gigabit infrastructure has become a bottleneck. The switch is unmanaged, meaning it requires no configuration and begins forwarding traffic as soon as it is powered and connected. Network technicians and AV integration professionals are the primary installers for this class of equipment.

The TEG-S3160 is intended for desktop or rack-adjacent deployment in residential and light commercial settings. Its 16-port 2.5G capacity supports demanding applications such as high-resolution AV distribution, NAS connectivity, and dense wireless access point backhaul where multi-gigabit uplinks are required. The compact desktop form factor makes it practical for installations in closets, server shelves, or workbench environments where space is limited.
