Description
**What this product can do for you**
The TL-SG1016 16-port Gigabit rack-mount switch provides an easy way to transition to Gigabit Ethernet. All 16 ports support auto MDI/MDIX, so no need to worry about cable type, just plug-and-play. With innovative energy-saving technology, the TL-SG1016 can also save up to 40%* of power consumption, making it an environmentally friendly solution for your business network.
**Gigabit Switch**
The TL-SG1016 features 16 10/100/1000Mbps ports, significantly boosting your network capacity, allowing heavy files to be sent in an instant. Now, power users at home, in the office, workgroup, or creative production environments can move heavy bandwidth-intensive files more quickly. Instantly transfer graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files across the network.
**Superior Performance**
The TL-SG1016 has a non-blocking wire-speed architecture with a 32Gbps switching capacity for maximum data throughput. An 8K MAC address table provides scalability for even the largest networks. It also supports 802.3x Flow Control for full-duplex mode, and back pressure flow control for half-duplex mode alleviates traffic congestion and ensures reliable data transmission.
**Choose green with your Ethernet.**
You can now choose green when upgrading to a Gigabit network! The new TL-SG1016 features the latest innovative energy-saving technologies that can significantly expand your network capacity with much less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to link status and cable length to reduce your network's carbon footprint.
**No power for unused ports**
When a computer or network device is turned off, the corresponding port of a traditional switch continues to consume significant amounts of power. The TL-SG1016 can automatically detect the link status of each port and reduce power consumption for unused ports.
**Power budget according to cable length**
Normally, shorter cables consume less power due to lower power loss over the length of the cable; this is not the case with most devices, as they consume the same amount of power through the cable regardless of their length.
**Ease of use**
The automatic features of this Gigabit switch make installation plug-and-play and hassle-free. No configuration is needed. The Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminates the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each port detects the link speed of a network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts compatibility and optimal performance. The compact housing makes it ideal for desktops with limited space while also being convenient and secure to mount in a rack. Dynamic LED indicators provide real-time working status display and basic fault diagnosis.
