integration of 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps devices, these unmanaged, rack-mountable switch
feature 10/100/1000 automatic speed and full/half-duplex sensing plus Auto Uplink™ on
every port. Users can take advantage of the their ability to deliver large amounts of multime-
dia, image, and video information in no time at all. Ideal for workgroups, labs, departments,
or growing offices looking for oustanding performance at a low price.
1000 Mbps speeds and a switching capacity of up to 48 Gbps meet the performance needs for even

and other applications that have to move large files across the network quickly.
Aggressive prices enable your workgroup, department or small network to ramp up to Gigabit
speeds, even all the way to the desktop.
Each port is equipped with automatic speed and duplex sensing, plus Auto Uplink to adjust for
straight-through or crossover cables to make the right link. Standards-based design makes it easy
to combine 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps devices on your network.
Easy to set up and easy to use, these unmanaged switches have per port LED's for effortless network
monitoring. Compact enough for desktop but comes with a rack mount kit. Compatible with PC,
