D-Link DGS-1008MP 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Desktop Switch

A Larger Power Budget for a Compact PoE Network The D-Link DGS-1008MP is built for a workspace expanding its IP cameras, access points or desk phones. All eight Gigabit ports support PoE+, with a 125W shared power budget in a quiet desktop or rack-ready chassis. Its plug-and-play design automatically negotiates 10/100/1000Mbps connections and works without a software controller. Connect compatible powered devices using standards-based PoE, and plan the combined power demand before installation. Highlights Wired Connectivity 8 × 10/100/1000BASE-T ports with auto-negotiation Automatic MDI/MDI-X for ordinary Ethernet patch cables 16Gbps switching capacity and store-and-forward forwarding Power over Ethernet 8 PoE+ ports supporting IEEE 802.3 af/at 125W shared PoE budget; up to 30W per powered port Compatible device power requirements must fit both limits Practical Installation 11-inch metal desktop chassis;1U rackmount-ready Fanless operation without cooling-fan noise 3-year warranty Key Features One Cable for Data and Power Supply network data and power to compatible cameras, wireless access points or IP phones through one Ethernet cable. The DGS-1008MP uses standard PoE negotiation rather than an always-on passive power feed. Check each device’s PoE standard and maximum draw, including any demanding operating mode, before allocating the shared budget. Eight PoE+ Ports With 125W to Share The B1 specification provides up to 30W per IEEE 802.3 at port within a 125W total PoE budget. It offers more powered connections than the four-PoE-port desktop models, but total demand must still fit the shared budget. An upstream Ethernet connection also uses one of the eight physical ports; there is no separate additional uplink port. Start With a Simple Physical Connection Connect the switch to the existing network and attach the endpoints using suitable Ethernet cabling. Auto-negotiation selects the supported link rate and Auto MDI/MDI-X removes the need to choose crossover cables. An ordinary Ethernet uplink remains necessary for access beyond the connected local devices. Quiet Operation Where People Work The fanless design avoids cooling-fan noise in the office or equipment area. 11-inch metal desktop chassis;1U rackmount-ready construction keeps the installation compact. Provide ventilation, keep the unit within its operating conditions and support cables properly rather than treating a silent switch as equipment that can be enclosed without airflow. Efficient Switching for Everyday Traffic Store-and-forward switching and IEEE 802.3x flow control support ordinary wired traffic, while Energy-Efficient Ethernet can reduce link power during suitable idle periods. The 16Gbps switching fabric describes aggregate switch capacity; it does not increase a single Gigabit port or the speed of an Internet subscription. Know the Limits Before Connecting Devices The 125W shared budget is separate from the 30W per-port ceiling, and the switch does not provide higher-power 802.3 bt PoE++. This is an unmanaged Gigabit switch rather than a multi-gigabit router or wireless access point. Choose a model with the appropriate managed features or higher-speed interfaces when the wider network requires them. Summary The D-Link DGS-1008MP offers 8 standards-based PoE+ connections and 8 Gigabit ports for a workspace expanding its IP cameras, access points or desk phones. Its practical value is a compact, fanless connection point with simple setup, provided the attached devices fit the shared power budget. Frequently Asked Questions Does This Switch Replace My Router?ExpandCollapse No. The DGS-1008MP expands a wired Ethernet network. Connect it to a router or another suitable upstream network device for Internet access and routing services. It does not provide a mobile modem or Wi-Fi. How Many PoE Devices Can It Power?ExpandCollapse It has 8 PoE+ ports with up to 30W per port and a 125W shared budget. Add the maximum power requirements of the attached devices and keep the total within the budget. An uplink uses one of the same physical ports, so there is no extra dedicated uplink beyond the listed port count. Does It Need Configuration or a Controller?ExpandCollapse No controller is required for ordinary plug-and-play switching. Link speed and cable crossover are handled automatically. Will It Work With Older Ethernet Devices?ExpandCollapse Yes. Its RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation. Each link runs at a speed supported by both connected devices and the cable; Gigabit capability does not make a slower endpoint or broadband service faster. Can I Use It Beside My Desk?ExpandCollapse The switch is fanless and produces no cooling-fan noise. 11-inch metal desktop chassis;1U rackmount-ready placement is supported. Keep it ventilated and within the specified temperature limits, with cables and power connections arranged safely. What Warranty Is Included?ExpandCollapse A 3-year warranty applies, subject to the applicable product and component terms. Baca selengkapnya
