Trendnet16-Port Gigabit PoE+ Web Smart Switch with 2 Shared SFP Slots, Up to 30 W Per Port, 185 W Total Power Budget, Rack Mountable, TPE-1620WS

Q: ANyone else have 16port model that has some fan making a noise in it? not even solid hum... sounds like a cpu fan dying.

Well it is a movable part with bearings so it will go out over time. It is pretty easy to open them up. You should be able to find a replacement fan fairly easy.

Q: What are the shared ports used for? Sorry, rookie question I'm sure.

Hi dliguori25! Thanks for your interest in TRENDnet! The TPE-1620WS switch has 16 x gigabit PoE+ ports plus 4 shared gigabit ports (RJ-45 connection or fiber SFP slot). With the four shared ports you have the option to use either the RJ-45 Ethernet port interface, or the fiber SFP slot interface for a fiber SFP module. They are called shared because you can use either the copper RJ-45 Ethernet interface or the SFP slot for fiber applications. Hope this helps! If you have any more questions, you can always respond directly to this thread and someone will be happy to try and help answer any additional questions you may have! Have a great day!
