Hey Dane,
Thanks, I am also thinking of model GS116A
They all seem very similar though, thanks
Hi Bozack,
In terms of the performance all models are quite similar . They are line-rate models with a non-blocking architecture so you can support 16 devices at 1Gbps with no bottleneck.
If you have a rack or a small cabinet the JGS516 it´s the perfect fit as it´s a rackmountable model. If you don´t have a rack and you just want to wall-mount the switch the GS316 and GS116 will work well as they are desktop/wall-mount switches.
Hope it helps!
