Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This newly-redesigned Linksys 8-Port 10/100 Switch can significantly increase your network traffic's speed. A switch serves the same function as a hub in a network design -- tying your network equipment together. But unlike a simple-minded hub which divides the network's bandwidth among all the attached devices, a switch delivers full network speeds at each port. Installing this cost-effective 8-Port 10/100 Switch can potentially increase your network speed by eight times!

It's the perfect way of integrating 10 Mbps Ethernet and 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet devices, too. All eight ports are auto speed negotiating, and have automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, so you don't have to worry about the cable type. Each port independently negotiates for best speed and half- or full-duplex mode, for up to 200 Mbps of bandwidth per port. Fast store-and-forward switching prevents damaged packets from being passed on into the network.

The new ultra-compact case design is sure to fit into your workgroup environment. Let the Linksys 8-Port 10/100 Switch kick your 10/100 network into high gear.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice switch, bad longevity, June 12, 2007
I had two of these fail in the last week. Both are about a year old. The first one has a couple of ports that stopped working, and the second completely died overnight. They're plugged into UPS's, so power surges didn't cause the problem. I'm really dissapointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable Basic Switch, May 9, 2007
I have deployed several of these switches in a large environment. This series of switch has proven reliable everywhere we have deployed them. For a small, unmanaged switch it seems to be the best choice available. Crossover detect is becoming a more common feature, and is a real time saver. I have also seen this switch overcome cabling deficiencies where other "mini-switchs" have failed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great, December 20, 2007
Does exactly what it's supposed to do. A nice, compact little 10/100 switch with eight ports. Works great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it's supposed to do easily
Simply put - this switch worked perfectly - just plug the ethernet cables in, power up and it works. Couldn't be easier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Linksys 10/100 Switch
Flawless operation. Plug and play set up. Maybe someday their gigabit switches will work as well.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing
After years of using a 10/100 hub I decided to "upgrade" to a switch. Expecting a good product from Linksys, especially since they were acquired by Cisco, I purchased... Read more
