Chapter 1. Introduction of the Product
Thank you for choosing the TL-SG1008D 8-port Gigabit Desktop Switch.
1.1 Overview of
the
Product
Powered by the Gigabit Ethernet Technology, the TL-SG1008D 8-port Gigabit Desktop Switch
provides the seamless network connection, which can speed up your old network to 1000Mbps.
The increased speed and backbone connections make Gigabit a reality, which ensures the
graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files and other applications with bandwidth-intensive files
transferred across the network almost instantly.
The non-blocking switching architecture adopted in the TL-SG1008D greatly improves network
response times as well as significantly speed up the traffic between subnets by forwarding and
filtering packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput.
The TL-SG1008D switch is compatible with all 10Mbps, 100Mbps, and 1000Mbps Ethernet
devices, which can protect your existing network investments while provide you a straightforward
migration path to faster Gigabit speed.
The TL-SG1008D switch is very easy to manage since it is plug-and-play and no configuration is
needed. In addition, the auto MDI/MDI-X cable detection on all ports eliminates the demand of
crossover cable or Uplink port. Each port can be used as general ports or Uplink ports, and any
port can be simply plugged into a server, a hub, a router or a switch, using the straight cable or
crossover cable. Diagnostic LEDs which display link status and activity, allowing you to quickly
detect and correct problems on the network.
