VLAN trunking on a GS116E

Hope I've specified the correct model above - I'm contemplating purchasing two of these GS116E it's described as a GS116E-200UKS ie NOT a GS116Ev2.

 

Simply,can you please confirm that the GS116E is capable of VLAN Trunking?

I ask because I have a mixed bag of PCs and IoT devices across two rooms and I want the PCs to talk to each other on one VLAN and put the IoT devices on the other VLAN and I don't want multiple network cables going through the wall...

 

Cheers - and apologies if this has been answered elsewhere...

    Can't spot the exact model offered on that link by brightstar - it's a really carelessly maintained entry. The first image does clearly show the GS116E[v1] version which is only configureable by the ProSafe Plus Utility. 

     

    GS116Ev2 is indeed the model designator for the GS110E-200UKS SKU offered in the U.K.. This model offers both a Web UI and ProSafe Plus Utility configuration managment.

    Both models can be configured for either a single port or static LAG (mutiple links required) based trunk (read tagging frames between VLAN switches).
