D-Link DMS-108 8-Port 2.5GbE Unmanaged Desktop Switch

Give Compatible Devices Room to Work at 2.5GbE The D-Link DMS-108 is a 8-port 2.5gbe unmanaged switch for a small studio, home office or shared workspace with 2.5GbE-capable PCs, storage and wireless access points. Connect compatible devices to expand the wired side of your existing network. There is no management console to configure for everyday switching. Connect the power supply and Ethernet cables, and automatic link negotiation selects a supported speed for each attached device. Highlights Connections That Match Your Network 8 × 10/100/1000/2500Mbps RJ45 40 Gbps switching capacity Automatic negotiation accommodates supported slower Ethernet devices Practical Everyday Operation Fanless metal housing Plug-and-play switching without management software Non-PoE network ports Built for a Tidy Workspace 145 × 82 × 28 mm chassis 12V DC / 1A external adapter 3-year warranty Key Features Choose Faster Wired Links Where They Matter Use the available port speeds for local file transfers, storage access and compatible access points. A faster switch link is useful when both connected devices and the rest of the data path can support it. Internet speed remains limited by the broadband service and router. Let Each Device Negotiate Its Link Auto-negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX simplify mixed-speed connections and remove the need to choose crossover cables. The switch forwards Ethernet traffic locally while your existing router continues to provide routing, internet access and DHCP services. Keep Installation Straightforward Place the compact switch on a stable surface with adequate ventilation. Its wired ports carry data only; cameras, access points and other PoE-powered devices need a suitable separate power source or a PoE switch. Reduce Unnecessary Power Use Energy-saving features reduce unnecessary consumption as network activity changes. The fanless design avoids fan noise beside a desk, making the switch suitable for workspaces where simple, quiet operation matters. Choose the Right Device for the Job DMS-108 provides wired switching, not Wi-Fi or PoE power. Choose this model when straightforward wired expansion is the priority; use a managed switch if you need configurable VLANs or link aggregation. Summary Choose the D-Link DMS-108 for a small studio, home office or shared workspace with 2.5GbE-capable PCs, storage and wireless access points. Its straightforward installation and compact design provide a practical foundation for the wired network, with performance matched to compatible equipment and cabling. Frequently Asked Questions What ports does the DMS-108 provide?ExpandCollapse 8 × 10/100/1000/2500Mbps RJ45. Each connection negotiates a supported speed with the attached device. Is this a managed or unmanaged switch?ExpandCollapse It is an unmanaged switch designed for plug-and-play use. It does not provide a configurable VLAN or link-aggregation management interface. Will it increase my broadband speed?ExpandCollapse It can improve supported local wired links, but it does not change the speed of your internet plan. Internet and file-transfer performance also depend on the router, cable, network adapter and connected storage. Can it power cameras or wireless access points?ExpandCollapse No. These are non-PoE data ports. A device requiring PoE needs an appropriately rated injector or PoE switch, or its own supported power adapter. What should I check before connecting my devices?ExpandCollapse Check the Ethernet speeds supported by your devices, use suitable network cabling and keep the switch ventilated. A compatible router is still required for internet access. Is it fanless and what warranty is provided?ExpandCollapse Fanless metal housing. A 3-year warranty is provided. 続きを読む
