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.

How to use

Decide whether to manage the switch via Nebula cloud or locally through the Web GUI. For cloud management, register the device in Nebula Control Center or use the Nebula APP to onboard and monitor devices remotely. For local configuration, connect to the switch's Web GUI to access the full feature set and configure VLANs, QoS, PoE settings and other switch parameters. Install the switch on a desktop or shelf; connect uplink and access devices, apply desired PoE settings if using a PoE model, and verify network connectivity and device power.

Recommendations

Use Nebula cloud for centralized monitoring when managing multiple sites or several Zyxel devices. For single-site setups or where local control is preferred, the Web GUI provides full configuration options. When deploying PoE devices, configure the default PoE consumption mode to optimize the switchs power budget and ensure stable operation of access points and cameras.
