Araknis Networks AN-320-SW-F-16-POE 16-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch

Managed PoE+ Power for Up to 16 Network Devices

The Araknis AN-320-SW-F-16-POE is a fully managed Layer 2 Gigabit PoE+ switch for home, security, AV, and business networks that need centralized power and greater network control.

Part of the Araknis Networks family, it combines 16 front-facing PoE+ ports, a 250W PoE budget, dual SFP uplinks, VLANs, link aggregation, and OvrC remote management.

16 Gigabit PoE+ Ports

• 16 × 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 ports
• IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE/PoE+
• Maximum output per port: 30W
• Total PoE budget: 250W
• Up to 15W simultaneously across all 16 ports
• Per-port PoE control, priority, and overload protection

It can power compatible IP security cameras, wireless access points, touch panels, and other PoE devices. Calculate the maximum possible wattage of all connected devices when planning the PoE budget.

Dual 1G SFP Uplinks

• 2 × dedicated 1Gbps SFP uplink ports
• Compatible with supported RJ45 or fiber SFP modules
• SFP uplinks do not consume one of the 16 PoE ports

SFP modules are sold separately. These are 1Gbps SFP ports, not 10Gbps SFP+.

Managed Layer 2 Network Control

• 802.1Q, port-based, private, and Voice VLANs
• STP, RSTP, and MSTP
• IGMP snooping and querier
• Static and LACP link aggregation
• QoS and rate limiting
• ACLs, 802.1X, port security, and IP Source Guard

These controls can help separate camera, Wi-Fi, AV, guest, and other network traffic when used with a compatible router.

OvrC Remote Management

OvrC provides compatible remote monitoring, firmware management, diagnostics, and network visibility. The switch also supports web-based management and CLI access.

Front-Facing 1U Rack Design

• 36Gbps switching capacity
• Front-facing RJ45 and SFP ports
• Dimensions: 17.32 × 1.73 × 10.23 inches
• Weight: approximately 6.23 lb
• 100–240V AC input
• Device consumption: approximately 22.3W without PoE load
• Maximum total consumption: approximately 297.74W
• 5-year limited manufacturer warranty

If rear-facing cabling better fits your rack, compare the AN-320-SW-R-16-POE rear-port version.

This model uses active cooling. For systems powering multiple critical devices, consider protecting the switch, router, and recorder with an appropriate power management solution.

Send Bear Security Shop your PoE device models, quantities, maximum wattage, router model, and rack layout. We can help confirm the PoE budget and whether this switch is the right fit.

How many PoE ports does the AN-320-SW-F-16-POE have?

It has 16 Gigabit RJ45 ports, and all 16 support IEEE 802.3af PoE and 802.3at PoE+.

What is the total PoE budget?

Araknis specifies a 250W total PoE budget with up to 30W available on an individual port.

Can all 16 ports provide 30W at once?

No. The switch has a 250W shared power budget. Araknis specifies up to 15W simultaneously across all 16 ports.

Does it have SFP uplinks?

Yes. It has two dedicated 1Gbps SFP uplinks. Compatible SFP modules are sold separately.

Is this a fully managed switch?

Yes. It supports VLANs, link aggregation, STP/RSTP/MSTP, QoS, ACLs, 802.1X, port security, and other Layer 2 controls.

Does it support OvrC?

Yes. OvrC provides compatible remote monitoring, firmware management, diagnostics, and network visibility.

Should I choose the front or rear-port version?

Choose this front-port model for easier front rack patching and service. The AN-320-SW-R-16-POE places the Ethernet and SFP connections at the rear for cleaner hidden cabling.
