Is the V1405C-8 a managed or unmanaged switch?

This is an unmanaged fixed-configuration Layer 2 Ethernet switch with plug-and-play operation. No management interface or configuration is required, making it ideal for simple SMB deployments.

What network standards does it support?

Supports 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet via IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards. Media type is 10/100Base-TX with Auto-MDIX and duplex flexibility for reliable twisted-pair cabling.

What is the form factor of the JD856A switch?

Desktop compact design, perfect for office desks or shelves. It uses rear ports for clean cabling and operates on 100-240 VAC power with low consumption around 10W.

Does it support full duplex operation?

Yes, all 8 ports auto-negotiate half or full duplex, doubling throughput potential. This enhances performance for simultaneous bidirectional traffic in small networks.

Is Auto-MDIX supported on this model?

Yes, Auto-MDIX is standard, automatically correcting for straight-through or crossover cables. This simplifies installation and reduces errors in unmanaged Fast Ethernet setups.
