Level One GEP-2681 User Manual

GEP-2681 Version: 1

26-Port L3 Lite Managed Gigabit PoE Switch, 24
PoE Outputs, 185W, 2 x SFP/RJ45 Combo

LevelOne GEP-2681 L3 Lite Managed PoE+ Switch is a next-generation Ethernet Switch offering a full
suite of L2 features, better PoE functionality and increased usability. The switch includes advanced L3
features such as Static Route, which delivers better cost performance and lower total cost of ownership in
Enterprise networks via fiber or copper connections.

LevelOne GEP-2681 delivers 24 (10M/100M/1000Mbps) RJ45/PoE+ (Supporting 802.3at/af, and a total of
up to 185W) ports, 2 Combo GbE RJ45/SFP ports and an RJ45 Console port. LevelOne GEP- 2681
provides high HW performance and environment flexibility for SMBs and Enterprises. LevelOne GEP-2681
is ideal to deliver management simplicity, an intuitive user experience, and lower costs. The embedded
Device Managed System is designed to be extremely easy-to-use/manage/install a network of IP Phones,
IP Cameras, or Wifi AP for any scale of enterprise applications.
