D-Link DES‑1008PA PoE Unmanaged Desktop Switch

The D-Link DES-1008PA 8-Port Fast Ethernet PoE Desktop Switch enables both home and office users to easily connect and supply power to Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices such as wireless Access Points (APs), IP cameras, and IP phones while adding more Ethernet devices like computers, printers, and Network Attached Storage (NAS) onto a network. Built with home and small business users in mind, this compact PoE switch operates silently, making it ideal for use in virtually any room or office.

The DES-1008PA features 4 10/100BASE-TX ports that support the IEEE 802.3af PoE protocol. Each of the 4 PoE ports can supply up to 15.4 Watts, a total PoE budget of 52 Watts, allowing users to attach an IEEE 802.3af compliant device to the DES-1008PA without requiring additional power. PoE is especially suitable for devices that are far from power outlets or when you want to minimise the clutter of extra cables.

No configuration is required and installation is quick and easy. Support for Auto-MDI/MDI-X on all ports eliminates the need for crossover cables when connecting to another switch or hub. Auto-Negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (either 10 or 100 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance. The switch has been designed without fans so you can be sure of silent operation wherever it is installed

The 8-Port Fast Ethernet PoE Desktop Switch is a Plug-and-Play device that requires no configuration, so setup is simple and hassle-free. Connect multiple computers, share files, music, and video across your home or small office network, or even create a multi-player gaming environment.
