About this product

Product Information

Computers do not require Internet access all the time; neither do switches utilize all ports at all times. When a computer or network equipment is shutdown, switches often remain on and continue to consume considerable amount of power. With Green Ethernet technology, D-Link switches can automatically detect link status and reduce power usage of ports that are idle. Computers or any connecting parties set to standby mode (not power off), however, will not provide significant power savings.The Green Ethernet switches have the ability to analyze the length of any Ethernet cable connected to them for adjustment of power usage accordingly. Shorter lengths require less power.For a traditional switch, power consumption remains constant even when the ports are not in use. In a standard workday scenario where PCs are used for 10 hours a day and powered off 14 hours a day, and connected to the switch using 20 meter cables, D-Link's Green Ethernet can save up to 40% power used for each system.Get the blazing speed of Gigabit Ethernet with the D-Link DGS-2208, an 8-port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Switch that delivers power, performance, and reliability in one cost-effective, space-saving design. Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality.Power users in the home, office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Transfer graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files across the network instantly.The D-Link DGS-2208 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch features a non-blocking switching architecture that filters and forwards packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. An 8,000 MAC address table provides scalability for even the largest networks. Address learning and aging, 802.3x Flow Control for full duplex mode, and back pressure flow control for half-duplex mode alleviates traffic congestion and ensures reliable data transmission.Designed using industry standards, it is compatible with virtually all 10, 100, and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices and other vendor equipment. The D-Link DGS-2208 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch protects your existing network investments while providing you with a straightforward migration path to faster Gigabit speeds.The auto features of this gigabit switch make installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is required. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance.It also features diagnostic LEDs which display status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.

  • It's a simple, effective switch

    Delivered on time. All accessories (power converter) were included. The switch looked almost brand new. I had downloaded and reviewed the user manual from on-line before I plugged it in. I did not use the power-on lan cable test feature because all my cables are good. The switch correctly identified devices as 10, 100, or gigabit. I moved the five cables to all of the different ports to ensure they all worked. No problems. The switch runs cool to the touch. No complaints and I would buy from this vendor again.

  • Excellent Gigabit Switch

    We have a number of D-Link switches in this family of products, and they have all served us very well. This product line is not the latest and most current offered by D-Link, but I wanted to buy this unit from eBay to keep all units the same. This product has eight ports and each port can be 100 or 1,000 Mbps, with pilot lights that show activity and link speed. This unit has enough weight to stay in place even with all ports and power cable connected. Many of the newer devices are so light-weight that they won't stay flat and won't stay in place. It runs cool and has worked flawlessly. I highly recommend this product family if you can still find it.

  • One of the best, affordable switches on the market!

    I have 2 and they work perfect. At least 12 devices connected and flawless. You can't beat this ready to go, out of the box switch, for the price.
