LANCOM GS-2412P
12-port managed Gigabit Ethernet switch with Power over Ethernet for reliable office networks
The LANCOM GS-2412P is a powerful and silent solution for efficient network management in business premises, professional small offices, or growing branch networks. This fanless Gigabit access switch connects up to twelve end devices via ten Gigabit Ethernet ports and two additional SFP ports.
With Power over Ethernet (PoE+) and a total output of 130 watts, up to eight PoE-powered devices can be reliably supplied with power via IEEE 802.3af/at, eliminating the need for additional power supply units or cabling.
For Layer 2+ switch management, users can choose between a web-based GUI, a CLI, or the LANCOM Management Cloud (LMC) for centralized, automated device rollouts and configurations.
Key Features:
- Gigabit access switch with 10x 1 Gigabit Ethernet ports (8x with PoE+) and 2x SFP ports
- Fanless design – ideal for noise-sensitive work environments
- PoE support as per IEEE 802.3af/at with up to 130 watts PoE budget for efficient power supply to connected devices
- IEEE 802.3az power saving feature – port deactivation when not transferring data
- Security with configurable access control on all ports as per IEEE 802.1X and access control lists
- Secure remote management through TACACS+, SSH, SSL, and SNMPv3
- Cloud-managed LAN for fast configuration and convenient management via the LANCOM Management Cloud
- IPv6 and IPv4 support for modern enterprise networks
- Includes: 2x 19” mounting brackets, a serial configuration cable, and an IEC power cable
- 5-year replacement service for all components
High power output on 12 ports
The LANCOM GS-2412P is equipped with 10x 1 Gigabit Ethernet ports (thereof 8x with PoE+) and 2 SFP ports. With a data throughput of 24 Gbps on the backplane, the switch offers full performance even under load. The switch therefore forms the high-performance basis for modern network infrastructures in small and home offices.
Cloud-managed LAN with port templates and Secure Terminal Access
With the LANCOM Management Cloud (LMC) and cloud-managed LAN, the LANCOM GS-2412P can be quickly and easily integrated into the network and configured automatically and across locations at the click of a mouse. Time-consuming individual device and switch port configurations are now a thing of the past. The targeted switch rollout via the LMC enables automatic VLAN assignment to switch ports including practical switch port profiles and thus a “zero-touch” assignment to the devices. Secure Terminal Access allows direct access to the command line of the LANCOM switch (“CLI tunneling") from the LMC - encrypted and, above all, without leaving the cloud interface. Secure Terminal Access provides expert functions as well as extensive diagnostic and troubleshooting commands for the devices. Some highlights include: “trace” and 'ping' commands for quick troubleshooting, access to low-level configuration parameters and detailed statistics of the LCOS SX operating system as well as secure remote access to third-party devices in the local network via the integrated SSH client.
Central power supply without additional cabling
As a powerful PoE switch, the LANCOM GS-2412P supplies connected PoE end devices with power via eight PoE+ ports. It supports the Power over Ethernet standards IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at (PoE+). Thanks to high power reserves and a total output of 130 watts, it is ideal for the efficient power supply of PoE end devices.
Fanless design for silent and reliable operation
In noise-sensitive environments, this Gigabit access switch expands the network without compromising reliability. Its fanless design with no moving parts ensures silent operation, making it ideal for offices, conference rooms, and other noise-sensitive workspaces. The passive cooling system enhances energy efficiency and eliminates potential points of mechanical failure. This not only extends the device's service life but also maintains a high mean time between failures (MTBF), even under heavy network loads, ensuring consistent network availability. With its combination of silent operation and high reliability, this switch is a future-proof investment for professional IT infrastructures.
Efficient energy saving and layer 2 switching for stable network infrastructures
Thanks to energy-saving functions in accordance with IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet), the switch automatically disables unused ports and reactivates them instantly without delay or packet loss as soon as they are needed again. This effectively conserves valuable energy resources. However, efficient networks require more than just energy savings. Powerful Layer 2 switching with MAC-based data forwarding ensures a stable network infrastructure. Spanning Tree Protocols (STP, RSTP, MSTP) enable a redundant yet loop-free network topology, while Link Aggregation (LACP, IEEE 802.1ax) allows bundling of up to 16 ports per group for improved load balancing. For flexible network segmentation, the Gigabit access switch supports up to 4,096 VLANs, while Voice VLAN prioritizes voice data to ensure optimized Quality of Service (QoS). Additionally, DHCP relay (options 66, 67, 82) simplifies IP address assignment across different network segments.
Configurable access control & secure remote management
The LANCOM GS-2412P stops rogue clients from gaining unauthorized access to the network. This is ensured by secured access control on all ports as per IEEE 802.1X (port-based, single, multi, and MAC-based) or by ACLs (access control lists). Thanks to secure communication protocols such as SSH, SSL, and SNMPv3, professional remote management of the network is possible. The switch also supports the TACACS+ protocol for authentication, authorization, and accounting. This optimized solution promises maximum security for multi-site network management and monitoring.
IPv6 and IPv4 support
Thanks to its dual-stack implementation, the LANCOM GS-2412P can be used in pure IPv4, pure IPv6, or mixed networks. Numerous applications such as SSL, SSH, Telnet, or TFTP can thus also be run over IPv6 networks. IPv6 features such as stateless autoconfiguration, neighbor device discovery, and MLD snooping round out the IPv6 features.
