Overview
- The Mercusys MS120GP is a managed rackmount switch designed for small to medium-sized business networks. With 16 PoE+ ports delivering up to 30 W per port and a total PoE budget of 192 W, it can power and connect a wide range of network devices including IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without additional power infrastructure.
Simplicity is built in: the switch operates on a plug-and-play basis with no configuration required for basic operation. For advanced deployments, Isolation Mode enables one-click client traffic separation, improving security by preventing inter-client communication. Priority mode on ports 1–4 guarantees quality of service for time-sensitive applications like video surveillance monitoring.
The extended transmission range of up to 250 m in Extend Mode makes the MS120GP suitable for distributed installations across larger facilities or campuses. Combined with PoE Auto Recovery—which automatically reboots dropped or unresponsive devices—the switch helps minimise downtime and improve overall network stability.

FAQs
How many devices can the MS120GP power simultaneously?
The switch features 16 PoE+ ports with a total PoE budget of 192 W. The number of devices you can power depends on the power requirements of each device. For example, devices consuming 12 W each could support up to 16 simultaneous connections, while higher-power devices may require fewer connections.
Does the MS120GP require configuration or management software?
No. The MS120GP operates on a plug-and-play basis and requires no configuration for basic network connectivity. Simply connect power and network cables, and it will function immediately. Advanced features like Isolation Mode are available for users who need enhanced security.
What is Extend Mode and how does it work?
Extend Mode allows data and power transmission over distances up to 250 m, which is significantly longer than standard Gigabit Ethernet (100 m). This feature is useful for installations spanning larger facilities or outdoor campus environments.
Can I use non-PoE devices on this switch?
Yes. The MS120GP includes 2 non-PoE Gigabit ports and 2 Combo SFP slots for devices that do not require Power over Ethernet. This flexibility allows you to connect a variety of network devices.
What does Isolation Mode do?
Isolation Mode separates client traffic with a single click, preventing devices on different ports from communicating with each other. This enhances security and network performance in multi-tenant or shared network environments.
What is PoE Auto Recovery?
PoE Auto Recovery automatically detects and reboots unresponsive or dropped PoE devices, restoring connectivity without manual intervention. This feature improves network uptime and reduces downtime caused by device failures.
What devices are compatible with the MS120GP?
The MS120GP works with any IEEE 802.3af/at compliant Power over Ethernet device, including IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, IoT sensors, and network switches.
