8-port Unmanaged Stand-alone Dual Speed Switch
D-Link DES-1008D is an unmanaged 10/100Mbps switch designed to
enhance small workgroup performance while providing a high level of
flexibility. Powerful yet easy to use, this device allows users to
simply plug any port to either a 10Mbps or 100Mbps network to multiply
bandwidths, boost response time and satisfy heavy load demands.
Features :
8-port 10/100Mbps Auto-sensingThe switch comes with 8
10/100Mbps ports, allowing a small workgroup to flexibly connect to
Ethernet and Fast Ethernet and integrate. These intelligent ports
detect the network speed and auto-negotiate between 10Base-T and
100Base-TX, as well as between Half and Full-Duplex.
Flow Control for Secure TransmissionThe flow control function
minimizes dropped packets by sending out collision signals when the
port's receiving buffer is full. The flow control is available in the
half-duplex mode.
Auto-negotiation of MDI/MDIX Cross OverAll ports support
auto-negotiation of MDI/MDIX cross over. This eliminates the need for
cross over cables or uplink ports. Any port can simply plug to a
server, a hub or a switch, using usual straight-through twisted-pair
cable.
SOHO Plug-and-PlayWith 8 plug-and-play ports, the switch is a
perfect choice for the small workgroup to upgrade performance in a
client/server environment. The ports can be connected to servers in
full-duplex or to hubs in half-duplex.
Desktop PowerWith low-cost connection per-port, the switch
can also be set up for direct connection from the PCs. This relieves
data bottleneck by giving each workstation a dedicated bandwidth on the
network.
