The Grandstream GWN7803PL Pro is a high-performance 48-port Layer 2++ managed PoE+ switch designed for medium-to-large enterprises seeking a reliable, feature-rich network foundation. As part of the GWN7800 Pro Series, it combines powerful switching capabilities with intelligent PoE delivery, advanced security, and flexible management.
Powerful PoE+ for Business Devices
Grandstream GWN7803PL Pro has 24 of the 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports support IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+, delivering up to 30W per port with a total budget of 400W. This makes the Grandstream GWN7803PL Pro ideal for powering IP phones, IP cameras, Wi-Fi access points, and other PoE endpoints. Smart PoE features include per-port power allocation, priority settings for power-limited scenarios, user-defined time periods via WebUI, and dynamic power negotiation via LLDP-MED.
High-Speed Connectivity & Performance
Grandstream GWN7803PL Pro switch features 4x 10G SFP+ uplink ports for flexible fiber connectivity, alongside 48x Gigabit Ethernet ports. With 216Gbps switching capacity, 108Gbps non-blocking throughput, and a forwarding rate of 160.704Mpps, it handles high-bandwidth traffic with ease. Network latency is under 4Β΅s, ensuring responsive performance for latency-sensitive applications.
Advanced Layer 2++ Features
The Grandstream GWN7803PL Pro offers comprehensive Layer 2++ capabilities:
VLAN: 4K VLANs, port-based VLAN, IEEE 802.1Q tagging, QinQ, MAC-based, Protocol-based, and Voice VLAN
QoS: Port priority, priority mapping (802.1p, DSCP, IP precedence), queue scheduling (SP, WRR, WFQ, SP-WRR, SP-WFQ), traffic shaping, and rate limiting
Multicast: IGMP Snooping (v2/v3) with 640 groups, MLD Snooping (v1/v2) with 640 groups
Link Aggregation: Up to 32 LAG groups with up to 8 members per group
Spanning Tree: STP/RSTP/MSTP with 64 instances
Static Routing: 1K IPv4 and 1K IPv6 static routes for inter-VLAN communication
Comprehensive Security
Security features include ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard, DoS attack prevention, port security, DHCP Snooping, and loop protection. Authentication options include 802.1X, MAC authentication, and AAA (RADIUS, TACACS+). The switch also supports storm control, port isolation, and Kensington Lock for physical security.
Reliability & Redundancy
The Grandstream GWN7803PL Pro supports external 1+1 redundant power supply (RPS, 460W) for mission-critical deployments. The 4 internal fans with automatic speed adjustment ensure optimal thermal management. Comprehensive surge protection (Β±6KV for power, Β±4KV for network ports) and ESD protection (Β±12KV contact discharge) safeguard the switch and connected equipment.
Flexible Management Options
The GWN7803PL Pro offers multiple free management platforms:
Embedded Controller: Built-in Web UI for local switch management
GDMS Networking: Free cloud management platform for unlimited Grandstream networking products
GWN Manager: On-premise software controller for unlimited devices
GWN Series Routers: Integrated management via compatible Grandstream routers
