The GWN7801 (and its PoE variant, GWN7801P) is a Layer 2+ managed switch designed for small-to-medium enterprise deployments. It provides flexible port options (copper and fiber), and supports advanced management, security, and quality-of-service features. It is part of Grandstream’s GWN7800 series of switches intended to integrate with their broader networking product line.
The “P” in GWN7801P denotes the PoE (Power over Ethernet) enabled version, which can power endpoints (such as IP phones, cameras, wireless access points) through Ethernet ports.
This switch is suitable for deployments needing both copper and fiber uplinks, and where advanced management (VLANs, QoS, security) is required without stepping up to full Layer 3 routing features.
Here are some of the major capabilities and features:
| Feature | Description / Benefit |
|---|---|
| Multi-Gig Copper Ports | Supports 100 / 1000 / 2,500 Mbps rates on copper ports (on models that support multi-gig) |
| SFP / SFP+ Fiber Uplinks | Provides fiber connectivity via SFP (or SFP+) modules for high-speed or long distance uplinks. |
| Layer 2+ Management | Supports advanced layer 2 features plus some layer 3-lite functions (static routing, etc.). |
| VLAN, QoS, Traffic Control | VLAN tagging, port-based VLANs, QoS with priority mapping, rate limiting, scheduling. |
| Security Features | 802.1X authentication, MAC authentication, ARP inspection, IP source guard, DoS protection, DHCP snooping, port isolation, storm control, etc. |
| PoE / PoE+ (in “P” model) | Supports 802.3af / 802.3at PoE standards. “Smart power control” to dynamically allocate PoE power per port. |
| Cloud / Centralized Management Support | Integration with Grandstream’s GDMS (Grandstream Device Management System), local UI, CLI, etc. |
| LED Indicators, Console Port, Easy Monitoring | Visual indicators for port/link status, console for direct configuration. |
Below is a summary of the technical specs (based on the datasheet) for GWN7801 / GWN7801P:
| Parameter | Spec / Value |
|---|---|
| Port Configuration (Copper) | 8 × Gigabit RJ-45 ports (on some variants, Multi-Gig support) |
| Fiber / SFP Ports | 1 × SFP+ (1/10 Gb) or optional SFP fiber uplink |
| Switching Capacity / Throughput | (From datasheet) — full non-blocking throughput depending on model (refer to datasheet for exact numbers) |
| Power over Ethernet (for GWN7801P) | Supports 802.3af / 802.3at standards; with dynamic per-port power allocation |
| Management Methods | Web GUI, CLI, SNMP, remote management via GDMS / cloud |
| VLANs / MAC Addresses / Routes | Supports many VLANs, supports static routing, large MAC address table, etc. |
| Security / Protection | 802.1X, MAC auth, ARP inspection, DoS protection, DHCP snooping, storm control, port isolation, etc. |
| LEDs / Indicators | Per-port link/activity LEDs, PoE status LEDs, system status LED |
| Console / Management Port | Console port (e.g. RJ-45 or serial) for command line access |
| Power Supply / Consumption | Depends on PoE load (for “P” model) — check datasheet for wattage budgets |
| Dimensions / Form Factor / Mounting | Rack / desktop form factor (check datasheet for exact size) |
