D-Link Dgs-1008A 8-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch

Note: Technology Products May Be Subject To Additional Fraud Checks By The Mega Team

The D-Link DGS-1008A is an 8-port Gigabit Switch that delivers power, performance, and reliability in one cost-effective, space-saving design. Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality.

Power users in the home, office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. It also features diagnostic LEDs which display status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.

Power Savings by Cable Length
D-Link Green switches have the ability to analyze the length of any Ethernet cable connected to them for adjustment of power usage accordingly. Shorter lengths require less power.

Overall Power Savings Per Day
For a traditional switch, power consumption remains constant even when the ports are not in use. In a standard workday scenario where PCs are used for 10 hours a day and powered off 14 hours a day, and connected to the switch using 20 meter cables, D-Link Green Technology can save up to 27%* power used for each system.

Power-Packed
The D-Link DGS-1008A Gigabit Switch features a non-blocking switching architecture that filters and forwards packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. An 8,000 MAC address table provides scalability for even the largest networks.

Easy to use
The auto features of this gigabit switch make installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is required. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance.

The DGS-1008A features innovative D-Link Green eco-friendly technology:

• Reduces power consumption & creates less heat
• Extended product life
• Reduces Operating Costs
• Power Savings by Number of Connected Ports and Link Status
• Computers do not require Internet access all the time; neither do switches utilize all ports at all times. When a computer or network equipment is shutdown, switches often remain on and continue to consume considerable amount of power. With D-Link Green Technology, D-Link switches can automatically detect link status and reduce power usage of ports that are idle. Computers or any connecting parties set to standby mode (not power off), however, will not provide significant power savings.

* Power savings may vary depending on products used.
Maximum power savings when compared to a D-Link conventional switch. Uses up to 44% less energy when connected devices are powered down and up to 27% less energy when connected devices are used 10 hours and powered down 14 hours over a 24-hour period, when connected via 20 metre Ethernet cables.
