Product features

• Go green with your Ethernet
  You now have the choice to go green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This product TL-SG1008 features the latest innovative energy-efficient technologies that can greatly expand your network capacity with much less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to the link status and cable length to limit the carbon footprint of your network.
• Power down idle ports
  When a computer or network equipment is off, the corresponding port of a traditional switch will continue to consume considerable amounts of power. The TL-SG1008 can automatically detect the link status of each port and reduce the power consumption of ports that are idle.
• Superior performance
  The TL-SG1008 features non-blocking wire-speed architecture with a 96 Gbps 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.
• Ease of 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 and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance. Compact size shell makes it ideal for desktops with limited space while it is also rack-mountable, convenient and safe. Dynamic LED lights provide real-time work status display and basic fault diagnosis.
