What does this product do?
The TL-SG108 10/100/1000 Mbps Desktop switch with 8 ports from TP-LINK offers a straightforward way to transition to gigabit ethernet. You can enhance the speed of your network server and backbone connections or make gigabit at your desktop a reality. Furthermore, the TL-SG108 has low energy consumption. Thanks to its innovative energy-saving technology, the TL-SG108 can save up to 72% on power consumption, making it an environmentally friendly solution for your business network.
Gigabit Switch
With its 8 x 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, the TL-SG108 allows you to significantly expand the capacity of your network and transfer large files directly. This way, users at home, in the office, in a workgroup, or a creative environment can send large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Images, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files can be transferred directly over the network.
Go green with your ethernet
You now have the choice to go green when upgrading to a gigabit network! The new generation of the TL-SG108 10/100/1000 Mbps desktop switch with 5 ports is equipped with the latest energy-saving technologies, which increase your network capacity and significantly reduce power consumption. Power consumption is automatically adjusted according to the connection status and cable length, to minimize the carbon footprint of your network.
Disabling inactive ports
If a computer or network device is turned off, the corresponding port on a traditional switch continues to consume significant amounts of power. The TL-SG108 can monitor the connection status of each port and reduce power consumption for inactive ports, resulting in up to 72% less power consumption.
Power budget according to cable length
Ideally, a shorter cable would consume less power and result in less power loss. However, this is not the case with most devices, as they consume the same amount of power through the cable. The TL-SG108 analyzes the length of the connected ethernet cable and adjusts power consumption accordingly.
Easy to use
The automatic features of this gigabit switch make installation plug-and-play and problem-free. Configuration is not needed. Thanks to Auto MDI/MDIX, no crossover cables are required. Auto-negotiation on each port detects the connection speed of a network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and automatically adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance.
