Product Description:
SIMPLE SOLUTION FOR EXPANDING YOUR NETWORK
The D-Link 8-port 10/100 Desktop Switch (DES-1108) provides a simple solution for expanding your network. Connect this Desktop Switch to a router and share high-speed Internet access with up to seven additional computers. By sharing the Internet, your users can check e-mail, browse the web, and chat with friends and family online using their own computer. With this Desktop Switch, you can also add a print server, Network-Attached Storage (NAS), and Internet camera to increase the functionality of your network.
EFFICIENT NETWORKING
This 8-port Desktop Switch receives and forwards traffic seamlessly with its non-blocking wire-speed architecture. Every port simultaneously supports up to 200Mbps of bandwidth in full-duplex mode that totals 1.6Gbps of switching capacity. These features minimize network congestion, allowing you to run a smooth network.
SPACE-SAVING DESIGN AND INSTALLATION OPTIONS
This 8-port Desktop Switch is compact in size, making it ideal for desktops with limited space. Its power connector and ports are conveniently located in the rear to keep the cables out of sight. It also includes a wall mount kit, giving you the option of installing it on a wall or underneath a desk.
EASY TO INSTALL AND USE
The DES-1108 does not require any configuration or software, making installation simple. Supporting Auto-MDI/MDI-X, there is no need for crossover cables whether you are connecting this Desktop Switch to another switch or to a computer. Additionally, it will automatically sense if the connected network devices are running at 10Mbps or 100Mbps and adjust accordingly. Equipped with a comprehensive LED display, you can monitor the status and activity of every port at a glance.
Offering great performance and features packed in a compact size, the D-Link 8-port 10/100 Desktop Switch (DES-1108) is a superb choice for expanding your network.
Technical Specifications
The DES-1008D 8-Port Fast Ethernet Unmanaged Desktop Switch is an 8-port 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet switch that allows you to quickly set up a wired network. Connect the DES-1008D to multiple computers together to share files and folders, or connect it to a router to share an Internet connection.
Auto-Sensing 10/100 Ports
The DES-1008D uses auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps ports, allowing a small workgroup to flexibly connect to Ethernet and Fast Ethernet devices to create an integrated network. These ports detect the network speed and auto-negotiate between 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, as well as between full and half-duplex, allowing you to get the maximum speed possible for each device connected to your network.
Auto MDI/MDIX Crossover
All ports support automatic MDI/MDIX crossover, eliminating the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Each port can be plugged directly to a server, hub, router, or switch using regular straight-through twisted-pair Ethernet cables.
Flow Control for Secure Transmission
802.3x flow control on each port minimizes dropped packets when the port’s receiving buffer is full. This gives you a more reliable connection for all of your connected devices.
Think Green
The D-Link 8-port 10/100 Switch is part of D-Link’s new series of SOHO devices that make use of D-Link’s Green Technology, providing energy savings, reduced heat, and a longer product life without sacrificing performance or functionality. An energy-efficient power adapter (EnergyStar Level V qualified), minimized use of harmful substances (RoHS compliant), and recyclable packaging make this switch truly environmentally friendly. The switch helps you conserve energy automatically through several methods. It automatically powers down ports that have no link, allowing the switch to save substantial amounts of power by cutting power usage for unused ports or ports connected to computers that have been shut down.
