Product Description

The SMC EZNET-16SW is a dual-speed 10/100 Mbps desktop network switch that combines easy installation and operation with full-duplex speeds up to 200 Mbps per port. The EZNET-16SW provides 16 auto-negotiating 10/100 Mbps ports that automatically detect the speed and duplex modes of attached devices and let the switch automatically configure itself for optimum performance. Advanced features include a buffered ¿store-and-forward¿ architecture to prevent bad packets from propagating throughout the network, and back pressure and flow control to prevent packet loss and ensure peak performance at all times. The EZNET-16SW provides a Power LED along with individual LEDs that show the link/activity, speed, and duplex status for each port. Ideal for workgroups, such as those found in schools or on university campuses, the EZNET-16SW is powerful enough to run your network's backbone yet so easy, it can be used in place of your desktop hub. Limited Life Time Warranty. 24/7 Technical Support 1-800-SMC-4YOU.

If you're looking for a simple router that can handle your home network or small office needs, the SMC-EZNET-16SW makes it easy to connect up to 16 devices to your network without the need for additional network hardware. I personally use this as my main switch in my home network, providing me with 14 local connections to my router and another 7 connections in another room via an 8-port router. The SMC performs like some of the bigger named routers, but at a fraction of the cost. This is my second SMC router, the first one died after years of operation and then because of an electric storm that claimed quite a few components. I recommend power protection! Overall, I have tried other low-cost switches on my network, and I was quick to come back to SMC.
