This desktop switch offers an inexpensive alternative to fibre optics for the SOHO & small & medium business (SMB). Increasing network loads can be handled with the increased bandwidth of Gigabit Ethernet. ** Gigabit connectivity without fibre** The switch provides 5 Gigabit ports in the familiar Ethernet format, so it works seamlessly with existing network cables (CAT5 or higher). Up to 2000 Mbps can be achieved in full-duplex mode, giving workstations bottleneck-free access to server data. ** Plug-&-Play installation** All there is to do is plug the cables into the switch. All ports support both straight-through & crossover cable types, eliminating the need for an uplink port. & with 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-sensing, no configuration is required. ** Think Green** By sensing whether attached devices are ON or OFF & estimating the cable length, the switch is able to adjust its power consumption, for a total saving of up to 27%*. * Figure based on a scenario assuming that PCs are used for 10 hours a day, powered off 14 hours a day & connected to the switch using 20m cables.
