THE LGS116P

In terms of size the LGS116P is quite compact and so it measures just 280mm in length, 120mm in width and 25mm in height (weighs just 822g).

To get a better idea on just how compact it is we placed it over the TRENDNET TPE-S44 8-Port 100Mbps switch, the LINKSYS LGS308P Smart 8-Port Gigabit switch and the NETGEAR PROSAFE XJ712T Smart 12-Port 10GbE switch.

Unlike some higher end switches the LGS116P doesn't feature any exhaust fans and instead it's just perforated on both sides.

All 16 Ethernet ports are placed at the front (along with the system and PoE max LEDs) and as you can all see the 8 ones with PoE+ support are tagged and placed on the left (all ports have link activity LEDs).

The only thing at the rear of the LGS116P is the power port.

Turning the device over we see 4 rubber round feet (removable) and two holes which can be used for vertical mounting.
