Grandstream GWN7806 48-Port 10G SFP+ Managed Switch | Layer 2+

The Heart of a Modern, High-Performance Network

The Grandstream GWN7806 is more than just a switch; it's the strategic core of a modern, high-performance business network. Designed for ambitious small-to-medium businesses, this Layer 2+ managed switch provides the high port density and raw throughput needed to power converged networks where voice, video, and data travel seamlessly.

Unmatched Connectivity and Speed

At the heart of the GWN7806 are 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports for connecting your entire wired ecosystem—desktops, printers, servers, and IP cameras. For high-speed backbone connections, the switch is equipped with 6 x 10 Gigabit SFP+ ports. These multi-gigabit fibre ports are perfect for:

• Ultra-Fast Uplinks: Aggregating traffic from multiple switches.

• Direct Connections: Connecting to high-performance servers or network storage (NAS).

• Stacking: Creating a high-bandwidth, resilient stack of up to 16 switches, all managed as a single unit.
  This hardware, with its massive 216 Gbps switching capacity, ensures a non-blocking architecture where all ports can operate at full wire speed simultaneously, eliminating bottlenecks.

Enterprise Software, Intelligent Control

The GWN7806's power lies in its sophisticated, yet manageable, Layer 2+ feature set. It gives you the control of an enterprise switch without the complexity:

• Advanced VLAN Support (4K Groups): Segment your network with port-based, 802.1Q-tagged, MAC-based, and protocol-based VLANs. Utilise Voice VLAN to automatically prioritise IP phone traffic, and QinQ for service provider applications.

• Comprehensive Security: Protect your network with multiple layers of security, including 802.1X port-based authentication, RADIUS/TACACS+ AAA, DHCP Snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI), and IP Source Guard.

• High Availability: Ensure network uptime with 32 link aggregation groups, 64 instances of STP/RSTP/MSTP/PVST, and loop protection (BPDU Guard, Root Guard) to prevent common network issues.

• Intelligent QoS (8 Queues/Port): Prioritise critical applications like VoIP and video conferencing using multiple scheduling algorithms (Strict Priority, WRR, or a hybrid).

• Resilience: Protects your investment with 32K MAC address tables, dual firmware images for fail-safe upgrades, and advanced multicast management via IGMP/MLD Snooping.

Flexible & Free Management Platform

The GWN7806 provides complete management freedom. You can configure it using a command-line interface (CLI) for precision control or via an intuitive embedded web interface. For growing businesses, it integrates with Grandstream's free, award-winning management platforms:

• GDMS Networking: The cloud platform is ideal for IT teams managing multiple sites from a single dashboard. It offers zero-touch provisioning, real-time alerts, and bulk firmware updates.

• GWN Manager: This on-premise software gives you the same powerful control but hosted on your own server.
  Both platforms allow you to manage your entire fleet of Grandstream switches, routers, and Wi-Fi access points from a single pane of glass, dramatically reducing operational costs.
