RG-ES228GS-P 28-Port Gigabit Smart Cloud Managed PoE Switch
When your network starts growing, powering and managing dozens of devices quickly becomes complicated. The RG-ES228GS-P was built to simplify that challenge. With 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports, flexible uplink options, and powerful cloud management, it delivers reliable connectivity and centralized control for modern networks.
Designed for small businesses, surveillance systems, and structured installations, this switch allows you to power cameras, access points, and other network devices directly through Ethernet cables. Instead of dealing with separate power supplies and complex wiring, you get a clean, scalable network infrastructure.
The result is a faster, more organized network that’s easier to monitor, expand, and maintain.
Why Buyers Choose This Model
Many businesses start with basic switches that work initially but quickly become limiting as more devices are added. When surveillance cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones begin competing for power and bandwidth, networks often become unreliable and difficult to manage.
The RG-ES228GS-P solves that problem by combining 24 PoE+ ports, fiber uplink capability, and cloud-based management in a single rack-mount switch. Instead of struggling with cable clutter and limited power capacity, you deploy a switch designed to support large numbers of devices while keeping the network organized and visible.
Key Features & Benefits
24 PoE+ Ports — Power Your Entire Edge Network
With 24 PoE+ ports supporting IEEE 802.3af/at standards and a total PoE power budget of 370W, the switch can power devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones directly through Ethernet cables. This reduces installation complexity and eliminates the need for separate power adapters. It also helps installers build cleaner, more efficient network deployments.
Flexible Uplink Options — Connect to Your Network Core Easily
The switch includes two Gigabit RJ45 uplink ports and two Gigabit SFP uplink ports. These allow connections to upstream switches, routers, or fiber infrastructure without consuming PoE device ports. Fiber uplinks are particularly useful when connecting different network cabinets or extending networks across larger facilities.
Smart Cloud Management — Control Your Network Anywhere
The RG-ES228GS-P supports management through the Ruijie Cloud platform and the Reyee mobile app. Administrators can monitor device status, configure settings, and manage multiple sites remotely. This reduces on-site troubleshooting and makes network maintenance far easier for installers managing several locations.
IP Camera Recognition — Optimized for CCTV Networks
The switch includes built-in IP camera recognition, making it especially useful for surveillance installations. It can automatically identify connected cameras and simplify network configuration for CCTV systems. This feature helps installers deploy and maintain camera networks more efficiently.
Automatic Loop Prevention — Protect Network Stability
Network loops can cause major disruptions and bring entire systems offline. The RG-ES228GS-P includes automatic loop prevention to detect and mitigate these problems quickly. This helps maintain network uptime and prevents service interruptions in busy environments.
High Switching Performance — Keep Traffic Moving Smoothly
With a switching capacity of 56Gbps and a forwarding rate of over 41Mpps, the switch is designed to handle multiple high-bandwidth devices simultaneously. This ensures that traffic from cameras, computers, and access points flows efficiently across the network without congestion.
What This Helps You Avoid
Many network problems start when too many devices are connected to basic unmanaged switches. Cameras drop offline, wireless performance slows down, and troubleshooting becomes frustrating because there is little visibility into what is happening on the network.
The RG-ES228GS-P helps eliminate these issues by combining smart management tools, strong PoE power capacity, and intelligent network protection features. Instead of constantly fixing connectivity problems, you deploy infrastructure designed to handle modern device demands from the beginning.

Frequently Asked Questions
The RG-ES228GS-P provides 24 PoE+ ports that support IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at standards. According to the datasheet, the switch offers a total PoE budget of 370 W, which allows multiple powered devices to operate simultaneously from a single switch. This capacity is typically used for IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and other PoE-enabled equipment. Because the power budget is shared across all PoE ports, installers can distribute power efficiently across their devices while keeping installation simple with a single centralized switch.
The switch includes a total of four uplink-capable ports: two Gigabit RJ45 ports and two 1GE SFP ports. These uplinks allow the switch to connect to upstream switches, routers, or network cores without consuming PoE ports used for devices like cameras or access points. The SFP ports are especially useful for fiber connections between network cabinets or buildings. This design gives installers flexibility when integrating the switch into larger network infrastructures.
Yes, the switch is designed with surveillance environments in mind. The datasheet lists support for IP Camera Recognition and PoE watchdog features, which help monitor and automatically recover camera connections if a device stops responding. It also provides a recommended camera capacity reference to help installers plan system size. These features make the switch a practical choice for small to medium CCTV networks where reliability and simplified monitoring are important.
Yes, the RG-ES228GS-P supports Ruijie Cloud management and Ruijie Reyee App management. This allows administrators or installers to monitor device status, manage configurations, and perform updates remotely without needing to be physically present at the installation site. The switch also supports web-based management through an eWeb interface. These management options help reduce maintenance time and make it easier to monitor multiple deployments.
Yes, the switch supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN configuration. The datasheet indicates that up to 16 VLANs can be configured to segment network traffic. VLAN segmentation helps separate devices such as surveillance cameras, office computers, and wireless access points into different logical networks. This can improve both network organization and security in small business deployments.
The RG-ES228GS-P includes several monitoring and maintenance tools. According to the datasheet, it supports features such as camera detection, port mirroring, cable testing, and PoE watchdog monitoring. Administrators can also perform configuration through web management or Ruijie Cloud. These tools help simplify troubleshooting and provide better visibility into network devices connected to the switch.
The switch provides a switching capacity of 56 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 41.6 million packets per second (Mpps). These specifications ensure that the switch can handle multiple simultaneous connections without creating performance bottlenecks in typical business networks. The hardware includes a single-core processor with a 500 MHz clock frequency and 8 MB of flash memory. Together, these resources support stable switching performance for small and medium-sized deployments.
Yes, the switch includes several protection mechanisms to maintain network stability. The datasheet lists broadcast storm control, multicast storm control, and unknown unicast storm control. These protections help prevent excessive network traffic from overwhelming the switch or causing service interruptions. Combined with port isolation and CPU protection policy, these features help maintain consistent performance in busy networks.
Yes, the RG-ES228GS-P supports rack mounting. The physical specifications indicate a metal enclosure with dimensions suitable for standard rack deployment. The package includes rack-mount brackets and mounting screws to support installation in a network cabinet. This makes it easier for installers to integrate the switch into professional network racks used in offices, server rooms, and security equipment closets.
The official package contents listed in the datasheet include the switch unit, rubber pads, a power cord retention clip, mounting screws, and a power cord. Rack-mount brackets are also included to support installation in a network cabinet. The package additionally contains the user manual and warranty card. These accessories allow the switch to be installed immediately without requiring additional mounting hardware.
