D-Link DGS-108GL 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch Specifications And Datasheet

D-Link DGS-108GL 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

Introduction

The DGS-108GL 8 Port Gigabit Desktop Switches are economical, plug-and-play networking switch solutions for SOHO and small to medium businesses. They provide the choice of five or eight-gigabit ports, enabling you to easily expand your network and quickly upgrade your connectivity.

Plug-and-Play Installation

The DGS-105GL and DGS-108GL are plug-and-play devices that require no configuration. You can easily connect multiple computers, and share files, music, and video across your home or small office network. 802.3 flow control automatically and efficiently manages the data transmission process without packet loss, providing a more reliable connection for all of your connected devices.

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 into a server, hub, router, or switch using regular straight-through twisted-pair Ethernet cables, streamlining installation.

Conserve Energy

The DGS-105GL and DGS-108GL implement a power-saving function that can detect when a connected computer is shut down or when there is no Ethernet traffic. The 5/8 Port Gigabit Desktop Switch will automatically put inactive ports in standby mode, saving a substantial amount of power, and power them back on later when needed.
