TP-Link TL-SG108

What does this product do?
The TL-SG108 10/100/1000 Mbps Desktop switch with 8 ports from TP-LINK offers an easy way to upgrade to gigabit ethernet. You can increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make gigabit on your desktop a reality. Additionally, the TL-SG108 has low power 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 ports of 10/100/1000 Mbps, you can significantly expand your network's capacity and transfer large files directly using the TL-SG108. This allows users at home, in the office, in a working group, or in a creative environment to 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 option 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-efficient technologies, which increase your network capacity and significantly reduce power consumption. Power usage is automatically adjusted according to the connection status and cable length, to minimize the CO2 footprint of your network.

Disable Inactive Ports
If a computer or network device is off, the corresponding port of a traditional switch continues to consume significant amounts of power. The TL-SG108 can monitor the connection status of each port and reduce the power consumption of inactive ports, resulting in up to 72% less power usage.
Power Budget According to Cable Length
Ideally, a shorter cable should consume less power and result in less power loss. However, this is not the case for 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 the power consumption accordingly.
Easy to Use
The automatic features of this gigabit switch make installation plug-and-play and hassle-free. No configuration is needed. Thanks to Auto MDI/MDIX, there's no need for crossover cables. Auto-negotiation on each port detects the link speed of a network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and automatically adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance.
