it also has 4 10/100/1000Base-T Ports and 2 Combo SFPs. It runs
full/half duplex transfer mode for 10/100Mbps and full duplex transfer
mode for 1000Mbps. Each port on the DES-1228 supports AutoMDI/MDI-X. Auto-MDI/MDI-X is a feature that enables the switch to
auto sense what kind of cable is used on a port (straight or crossover).
This allows any type of cables to be used with the switch regardless
of what device is being connected.

power switch is located at the rear of the unit adjacent to the AC power
connector and the system fan. The switch’s power supply will adjust to
the local power source automatically and may be turned on without
having any or all LAN segment cables connected.
