TP-LINK GIGABIT 8-PORT TL-SG108E SMART MANAGED METAL SWITCH

Description

What this product does: The TL-SG108E 8-Port Gigabit Easy Smart Switch is an ideal upgrade from an unmanaged switch, designed for small and medium-sized businesses that require simple network management. Network administrators can monitor traffic through port mirroring, loop prevention, and cable diagnostic functions. To optimize traffic on your business network, the TL-SG108E offers port-based and tag-based QoS to keep latency-sensitive traffic smooth and jitter-free. In addition, its port-based and/or tag-based MTU VLAN support can enhance security and meet network segmentation requirements. Furthermore, with its innovative energy-efficient technology, the TL-SG108E can save up to 80% of power consumption, making it an eco-friendly solution for your business network.Simple and Effective ManagementThe TP-LINK TL-SG108E Gigabit Easy Smart Switch provides network monitoring so users can observe traffic behavior. With port mirroring, loop prevention, and cable diagnostics, the TL-SG108E can identify and even locate connection problems on your business network. In addition, administrators can designate traffic priority based on port priority and 802.1p priority, to ensure that voice and video are always clear, smooth, and without delay. Also, to improve network security and performance, the TL-SG108E supports MTU VLAN, port-based VLAN, and 802.1Q-based VLAN functions. The TL-SG108E is a plug-and-play upgrade from an unmanaged switch, thus representing great value that strengthens your network and provides great value for the end user.Go Green with your Ethernet NetworkNow you have the option to be green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This new generation of the 8-port Gigabit Smart Switch TL-SG108E features the latest energy-efficient technologies that can greatly expand your network's capacity with much less power consumption. Its power consumption is automatically adjusted according to link status and cable length to limit your network's carbon footprint.Power Off Inactive PortsOn a traditional switch, when a computer or other network device is turned off, the corresponding port continues to consume a significant amount of power. The TL-SG108E automatically detects the connection status of each port and reduces the power consumption of those that are inactive, which helps to lower power consumption.Consumption according to Cable LengthIdeally, a shorter cable should consume less power because its loss is lower. However, this is not the case with most devices as they use the same power regardless of cable length.Ease of UseThe automatic features of this Gigabit switch enable hassle-free Plug and Play installation. No configuration is required. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables. Auto-negotiation on each port identifies the link speed of the network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts it to ensure compatibility and best performance.Features8 10/100/1000 Mbps ports offering large file transfers instantlyInnovative energy-efficient technology that reduces power consumption by up to 80%IEEE 802.3x flow control that provides reliable data transfers16K Jumbo Frames improve the performance of large data transfersEffective network monitoring through port mirroring, loop prevention, and cable diagnosticsPort-based and tag-based QoS allow latency-sensitive traffic to be very smoothVLAN features improve network security through traffic segmentationIGMP Snooping that optimizes multicast applicationsCentralized management of all Easy Smart switches with the Easy Smart Configuration Utility
