This compact switch offers plug-and-play connections with Fast Ethernet speed and is designed for use in home offices, small businesses, workgroups, and departmental networks. The DES-1008P is equipped with eight 10/100 Mbps ports, four of which are IEEE 802.3af PoE compatible.

Benefits of Power-over-Ethernet: The DES-1008P enables a cost-effective connection for desktop PCs. Additionally, Power-over-Ethernet devices, such as Wi-Fi access points, cameras, and VoIP phones, receive both power and data simultaneously. The DES-1008P works with all devices compliant with the industry standard IEEE 802.3af PoE and delivers up to 15.4 W per port over a standard Cat 5 network cable.

With Power-over-Ethernet, you can position your devices flexibly anywhere. From now on, you can do without power outlets for your devices, saving additional costs for installing power connections. This combined connection can be up to 100 meters long.

Plug-and-Play installation: This unmanaged switch requires no complicated settings. Installation is quick and easy through plug-and-play within minutes. The fanless design of the desktop switch allows for placement directly at the workstation without disruptive background noise. Monitoring is also convenient: the LED indicators on the front of the switch show the current status of all connected devices.

The DES-1008P automatically detects the transmission rate of connected computers as well as all PoE-capable devices. Furthermore, the switch automatically distinguishes between full and half-duplex operation and supports flow control according to IEEE 802.3x. This enables fast and reliable data transmission, even for time-sensitive applications.
