D-LINK 8-PORT GIGABIT ETHERNET SWITCH GO-SW-8GE

Description

8 Gigabit Copper Ports Gigabit ports offer an economical alternative to fiber optics. These ports, using inexpensive Cat.5 twisted pair copper cables as transmission media, allow servers to be instantly upgraded with Gigabit capability without the need to install new and costly fiber optic cables. All ports support automatic 10/100/1000 Mbps network speed detection and auto-negotiation of full-duplex/half-duplex. Full Duplex Gigabit Access Server The Gigabit ports provide dedicated bandwidth for the server to operate at 2000 Mbps full duplex. This prevents bottlenecks and allows workstations to connect simultaneously to the data server. IEEE 802.3x Flow Control This feature allows servers to connect directly to the switch for fast and efficient data transfers. At 2000 Mbps full duplex, these switches facilitate high-speed data transport to servers, with minimal data loss. Automatic MDI/MDI-X Port Adjustment All ports automatically adjust to MDI/MDI-X crossover or non-crossover, eliminating the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Any port can be connected to a server, hub, or switch using a simple traditional straight-through twisted pair cable. Easy Integration The switch seamlessly integrates into the existing network, whether Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet, eliminating the need to replace existing network software or hardware. Plug & Play Installation With automatic 10/100/1000 Mbps detection, auto-negotiation on all ports, and the ability to retain existing Category 5 cabling, setting up the network becomes child's play. Simply connect the cables to the switch. The network will be ready to operate in minutes.

Green Ethernet Switch

Designed to help SMBs reduce energy expenditure and optimize power consumption, these switches harness the potential of Green Ethernet technology and can save up to 45% on energy. Using Green Ethernet technology, the switch detects inactivity of one or more peripherals. As soon as it detects inactivity, the switch reduces flows to the port in question and automatically puts it into standby mode, thereby reducing the energy used by the peripheral.
