  • Performance: 16 Gbit/s switching capacity, 11.9 Mpps forwarding rate, 4000-entry MAC table, jumbo frames
  • Management: unmanaged; QoS (IEEE 802.1p), IEEE 802.3x flow control
  • Housing: blue metal housing, 158 × 99 × 25 mm, power and port activity LEDs
  • Power: 5 V / 0.6 A adapter included, 3.7 W maximum consumption, Green Ethernet

Description

Low consumption, metal shell

According to TP-Link, Green Ethernet adjusts power draw to the link status and cable length, which keeps maximum consumption at just 3.7 W. A metal housing protects the internals, and the small footprint suits a desk or workbench. Auto MDI/MDI-X means there is no need to pick a cable type.

Who this network switch is for

A home, dorm room or small office where the router has too few ports and a desktop PC, printer, TV or webcam should go on a cable. No setup is needed, the switch works right away.
