t Utility 
 
 
 
 
 
The Compex PS2216 pocket switch is small in size but rich in features. The 
WinSmart utility provided with PS2216 enables users to easily configure the 
advance features of the switch such as Port-Based Virtual LAN, Port Trunking 
and Port Priority making it the most feature rich switch in its category. The 
Port-Based Virtual LAN feature allows setting up of 14 individual smaller 
segments with the 9
th
 & 16
th
port as the common port for all Virtual LANs. This 
feature not only improves network management, but enhances privacy of the 
individual Virtual LAN. Port Trunking improves the up-linking bandwidth and 
transfer speed between switches providing better performance for your 
network. Port Priority gives quality of service to your network traffic like 
video-on-demand services. It is the cost effective switch for small and 
medium size offices.

Š  High-Performance - With its backplane capacity of 3.2Gbps, data transfer is at 
an average of 200 Mbps at each of the 16 ports at full duplex mode allowing 
every node to perform at their maximum capability. 
Š  Segment your Network - The PS2216 switch is able to segment network into 
14 individual virtual local area networks (VLAN). The 9
th
 & 16
th
port being the 
common port for all the Virtual LANs. 
Š  Cascading - Port Trunking provides the ability to scale up to a higher 
bandwidth with the next layer of switch. Port Trunking feature enables uplinking 
of 4 ports to another switch that ensure faster and higher data bandwidth. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Š  Quality of Service - The Port Priority feature allows quality of service for 
bandwidth-intensive network traffic like video-on-demand, database 
applications. 
Š  Plug and Play Operations - The PS2216 can operate out of the box with no 
further configuration needed. Auto MDI/MDIX is featured in every port that 
allows any type of Category 5 Ethernet cable to be used. 
Š  Switching Architecture - Full bandwidth, non-blocking and collision-free frame 
forwarding enables data packets to be transfer at maximum performance 
speed.  
Š  Port Priority - Giving quality of service to bandwidth-intensive network services 
like video-on-demand.
