Description

The NG8 8-Port 10/100/1000 Mbps Desktop Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch adds 10/100/1000
Mbps Ethernet capacity to your home office, small office, workgroup or creative production environment.
Share large bandwidth-intensive files, such as CAD drawings and videos, at Gigabit speeds, improving
efficiency and cutting costly downtime.

This desktop switch features eight twisted-pair RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet ports that support auto-negotiable
10/100/1000 Mbps and auto MDI/MDIX cross-over detection functions for convenient plug-and-play
capability. No configuration is required, so you can have your Gigabit network up and running
immediately. Easy-to-read LEDs indicate connection and activity status for each port. IEEE 802.3x flow
control allows smooth transmission of large files.

The NG8 supports IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet standards by putting unused ports into a low­power state without interrupting network connections. It consumes very little input power—just a single
watt. The detachable five-foot input cord with NEMA 1-15P plug connects to a protected UPS, generator
or mains input AC source. The heavy-duty metal housing includes keyhole tabs for optional wall-mounting.
