Is this switch managed or unmanaged?

This is an unmanaged Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet switch with plug-and-play operation, requiring no configuration or management interface. It simplifies deployment for small networks without IT expertise.

What is the switching capacity and throughput?

Switching capacity is 16 Gbps with throughput of 11.90 Mpps. This supports efficient data handling for 8 ports without bottlenecks in typical SMB traffic.

What are the power consumption details?

Maximum power rating is 12W, idle power is 1W (or 1.7W per some sources). It uses an external power adapter (100-240VAC) and supports Energy Efficient Ethernet for low-activity savings.

Does it have a fan, and what is the operating temperature?

Fanless design ensures silent operation. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F), suitable for standard indoor office environments.

What compliance standards does it meet?

Compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards for Ethernet and RoHS for environmental safety. Fanless for acoustically sensitive areas, with status LEDs for port, power, and activity monitoring.
