The switch has a 16 Gbps switching capacity (non-blocking), allowing all 8 ports to operate at full Gigabit speed simultaneously without packet loss.
Does it come with a power adapter?
Yes, an external power adapter (5V DC) is included in the package. The switch also has power consumption below 5W, making it energy-efficient.
Are the ports auto-negotiating?
Yes, each port supports auto-negotiation for speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode, as well as auto MDI/MDIX, so you can use standard or crossover cables.
How do I know if the network link is active?
The switch has LED indicators for power and for each port's link/activity. The Link/Act LED lights up when a connection is established and blinks when data is transmitted.
Is the switch fanless?
Yes, the Ether-8GF features a fanless design that ensures silent operation, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments like offices and bedrooms.
Can I connect it to other switches or routers?
Absolutely. You can connect the switch to a router, another switch, or any network device using standard Ethernet cables. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables.
How should I clean and maintain the switch?
