Introduction

The Zyxel GS1915 Series offers 8/24-port GbE Smart Managed Switches with and without PoE connectivity to small business network. The GS1915 Series supports NebulaFlex that comes with handy features and superior performance. This series is the most affordable hybrid switch solution for SB/ SMB market. It can be easily setup through Nebula Control Center for cloud based unified management, or with its friendly Web GUI if you still prefer local setting.

Simple, affordable way to go cloud
Nebula provides both intuitive web interface and mobile APP to deliver a streamlined experience for installation and management of the network, without the additional cost for a software or hardware controller. Pro-users, small businesses, and chain stores can take advantage of Nebula to access real-time network information and enjoy centrally managed control over the GS1915 Smart Managed switches along with access points and security gateways. GS1915 series switch can satisfy requirements for a wide range of users; for Prosumers, it is able to ensure the quality connectivity for growing home IOT devices, for small business users, it can provide a sturdy network performance for daily operation, for chain store adoptions, it can manage and maintain multiple stores, all while carrying the flexibility to expand networking solution for new store locations instantly.

NebulaFlex – simply manage it your way!
The GS1915 Series supports NebulaFlex technology which provides extended flexibility for users to easily switch network management modes between standalone and our license-free Nebula cloud management platform. Nebula control center provides single pane of glass for Zyxel products; the local web GUI accesses the full feature set and all configuration options of your switch from the very first release.

The Nebula ecosystem
Nebula supports a comprehensive range of products from switches, access points, security firewalls, to 5G/LTE mobile routers, bringing you an easy and unified network experience. The Nebula APP allows to onboard devices and glance at real time network status easily. You also can reboot the abnormal AP/IP CAM by power cycle, or even block clients with unusual traffic remotely even when you are away.

Compact size, silent operation
The GS1915 Series comes with desktop dimensions, fanless design, and smart fan design (GS1915-24EP only). These slim and near-silent switches can perfectly blend into any working environment without intrusive fan noises.

Intelligence to power more devices
All PoE ports of GS1915-8EP and GS1915-24EP support IEEE 802.3at for maximum deployment of modern PoE devices. Each port provides up to 30 W with a total of 60 W and 130 W power budget, ideal for setups that just needs a few more APs and cameras for a small business. Both PoE models feature a default PoE consumption mode that delivers the actual power required by your networked devices, reserves the rest to optimize its power budget, allowing the switch to power more devices, and ensures a better ROI for your business.
