D-Link DGS-108GL Datasheet - Page 1

Product Highlights Cost-Effective Solution An efficient, low power consumption switch, with ample transmission quality for data transfers and smooth media streaming, all at a competitive price Flow Control Supports 802.3 flow control to enhance network efficiency and reduce congestion Compact Design The solid, compact, metal case is designed for durability. No configuration is required, making it easy for SOHO/Home users to expand their wired networks. DGS-105GL/DGS-108GL 5/8 Port Gigabit Desktop Switch Features High-Speed Connectivity • Five (DGS-105GL) or eight (DGS-108GL) Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports for high-speed wired connections • Plug-and-play installation Energy Efficient and Eco-Friendly • Reduces power to a port when no link to that port is detected • Energy efficient design reduces heat generated and allows the switch to run silently • Supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) The DGS-105GL and DGS-108GL 5/8 Port Gigabit Desktop Switches are economical, plugand-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, 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.
