The EGS7228FP is a 24-Port (370W) Gigabit PoE+ Layer 2 Switch with 4 Dual-
Speed SFP ports for ber uplinks. The EGS7228FP includes 24 Gigabit PoE
(10/100/1000 Mbps) ports and four SFP (copper/hot-swappable small formfactor pluggable) Gigabit ports for optional ber connectivity. Managing the wired
portion of the network is easy using the Switch’s browser-based interface.
The EGS7228FP is a full featured Gigabit Ethernet Switch with comprehensive
Layer 2 switching capabilities. The EnGenius Layer 2 switch includes IGMP
Snooping, MLD Snooping, Port Mirroring, Rapid Spanning Tree, Multiple
Spanning Tree, Spanning Tree, VLAN group, Voice VLAN, ACL, 802.1X port
security, SNMP v1/v2c/v3 and IEEE802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP).
The EGS7228FP provides 802.1Q VLAN support for improved convergence and bandwidth
utilization. The Switch automates the process of setting up VoIP devices on a network. Voice
VLAN offers clear quality and efcient transmission for all voice communications while also
providing a means of securing each broadcast domain, segregating them from each other.
VLANs can be congured to segment departmental resources and can be implemented on an
SMB network help to restrict access to sensitive information from one department to another.
The EGS7228FP supports IGMP Snooping, MLD Snooping, and VLAN for multicast
applications. By passively snooping IGMP packets transferred between the Switch and the
IP multicast host, registration information is recorded and sorted into multicast groups. The
Switch can then intelligently forward trafc to only those ports that request multicast trafc.
MLD Snooping enhances efciency in selective distribution by forwarding IPv6 multicast data
to receiving ports, rather than ooding all ports in a VLAN.
IGMPv1—Dened in RFC 1112. An explicit join message is sent to the Switch,
but a timeout is used to determine when hosts leave a group.
IGMPv2—Dened in RFC 2236. Adds an explicit leave message to the join
message so that the Switch can more easily determine when a group has no
interested listeners on a LAN.
IGMPv3—Dened in RFC 3376. Support for a single source of content for a multicast
group.
Priority queueing ensures high-priority trafc gets delivered efciently, even during congestion
from high trafc bursts. The ability to prioritize trafc ensures quality of latency-sensitive
services and applications despite increasing trafc loads. For mission critical environments,
the EGS7228FP supports 802.1D, 802.1w and 802.1s Spanning Tree Protocols (STP). STP
allows users to congure the switch with a redundant backup bridge path, so transmission
and reception of packets can be guaranteed in the event of any failed switch on the network.
The Switch supports IEEE 802.1p QoS that automatically classies and prioritizes compliant
device trafc to ensure that time sensitive data such as VoIP is forwarded without delay. To
help streamline networks, 802.1p Priority Tagging places a priority tag in a specied frame
placing it in a priority queue once received and enabling it to be prioritized ahead of other
Page 2
frames. IEEE 802.1p enables administrators to assign and designate trafc priority. This
process helps applications such as VoIP and video conferencing to be delivered clear
and jitter-free.
The EGS7228FP also supports 802.1X port-based authentication, so IT managers can
authenticate clients via external RADIUS servers. In addition, the Access Control List
(ACL) feature enhances network security and protects the network by screening trafc
from unauthorized MAC or IP addresses.
This high-performing switch also features a non-blocking wire-speed architecture with
a 56 Gbps switching capacity for maximum data throughput. The IEEE 802.3x Flow
Control function allows servers to directly connect to the switch for fast, reliable data
transfer. Network maintenance features include Spanning Tree and Cable Diagnostics for
easy troubleshooting.
This EnGenius Layer 2 Switch is designed for easy network management and can
quickly be added to an existing rack of other branded L2 and L3 switches. Conguration
of the Switch is made through an intuitive and user-friendly Web interface for quick
and easy management. The EnGenius L2 Switch also includes SNMP (v1, v2 and v3)
to collect and track data to monitor network health, manage devices, and more easily
enforce critical IT controls and policies. The Switch’s Link Layer Discovery Protocol
(LLDP) feature allows it and other network devices connected to it to announce and
display their identity and capabilities on the local network, which helps IT managers
better manage, troubleshoot or correct issues that may arise on the network.
The EGS7228FP is capable of conserving power without sacricing operational
performance. With the Energy Efcient Ethernet (EEE) standard, the network will
automatically decrease its power usage when trafc is low with no setup required. The
PoE Management feature lets IT managers control the PoE usage on each port so that
unnecessary power consumption can be saved during off hours. The Switch can also
detect the length of connected cables to automatically reduce power usage on shorter
cable connections.
With a total power budget of 370W for the EGS7228FP, customers can choose to
plug in up to 24 802.3at/af IP-based devices. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) optimizes the
installation and power management of network devices such as wireless Access Points
(APs), Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, and IP-based surveillance cameras. In addition, the
EGS7228FP’s Power-over- Ethernet (IEEE 802.3at/af) capabilities reduce installation
time and costs for many new network productivity devices. Free your wireless AP
deployments and IP cameras from the restrictions of power outlet proximity using a
standard Cat 5 cable.
The Switch’s Gigabit Ethernet ports support IEEE 802.3at/af PoE and can supply up to
30W per port for a total PoE budget of 370W. The 24 Gigabit ports provide seamless
connectivity for devices and applications that require high speed network access and
reduce bottlenecks that can interrupt communication. The Switch’s 4 SFP slots accept
ber transceivers for extending the wired network beyond the limitation of Ethernet
cabling. This is especially useful for schools with satellite classrooms, for hotels and
resorts, or other businesses with multiple building properties.
The EGS7228FP includes bracketing hardware for mounting into a switch rack. For even
more power, the RPS370 is a Redundant Power Supply which allows an IT manager
to extend the EGS7228FP’s PoE budget by 370W, extending the total PoE budget to
740W. Users can connect a RPS370 to the Switch to provide redundant power in case
of primary power supply failure.
PoE+ IEEE 802.3at/af Support
- Enables PoE devices like Access Points, Client Bridges, IP Cameras, VoIP telephones
and others to be powered directly from the Switch over an Ethernet cable.
- Up to 30W per port with a total PoE budget of 370W.

external RADIUS servers. In addition, the Access Control List (ACL) feature enhances
network security and protects the network by screening trafc from unauthorized MAC
or IP addresses.
