Zyxel 24 Port Network Ethernet Switch | Unmanaged+ Gigabit | GS1100-24E

The Zyxel GS1100-24E is a 24-port Gigabit Unmanaged Plus Slim Switch built for growing small businesses and SMB environments that need a higher port count with basic management features in a compact, rack-friendly chassis. All 24 RJ-45 ports support 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation with Auto MDI/MDI-X, delivering 48 Gbps of non-blocking switching capacity and a 35.7 Mpps forwarding rate. The switch includes a 1 MB packet buffer, a 16K MAC address table, and jumbo frame support up to 12KB for demanding workloads. The GS1100-24E goes beyond simple plug-and-play through its web-based management interface, which provides access to 802.1Q VLAN, VLAN trunking, loop prevention, port isolation, DHCP client, IEEE 802.3az EEE, system password, firmware upgrades, and configuration backup and restore. These features allow network administrators to segment traffic, prevent loops, and manage power consumption without requiring a full managed switch. The switch does not include PoE support. For deployments requiring Power over Ethernet, the GS1100-16EP offers IEEE 802.3at PoE+ across 16 ports with 135W total budget. The GS1100-24E ships with a power cord, wall mount kit, and rack mounting kit, making it equally suitable for wall installations and standard 1U rack deployments in network closets and server cabinets. The fanless design ensures completely silent operation at 0 dBA, making the GS1100-24E a practical choice for open-plan offices and quiet work environments. Power consumption ranges from 3.35W at idle to 13.75W under full load. Every Ethernet port is protected with 2KV surge and 8KV air / 4KV contact ESD protection. MTBF is rated at 581,968 hours at 25°C. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C / 32°F to 104°F, with storage from -40°C to 70°C / -40°F to 158°F. Humidity tolerance is 10% to 95% non-condensing. Dimensions: 225 x 143.5 x 39 mm / 8.86 x 5.65 x 1.54 inches. Weight: 0.897 kg / 1.98 lb.
