Frequently asked questions about this product
Compiled from manufacturer information
Does the DGS-1008A support connecting devices operating at 100 Mbps?
Yes, the switch supports IEEE 802.3 standards including 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T, allowing automatic connection to devices operating at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, with automatic speed adjustment to match the connected device
Can the DGS-1008A be used with a network printer?
Yes, the switch supports connecting various network devices such as printers, CCTV cameras, or NAS. Network printers using Ethernet ports can be connected through the DGS-1008A to work immediately with computers on the network
Can the DGS-1008A be mounted on a rack or shelf?
Yes, the switch is compact at only 130 x 79 x 22 mm and weighs just 130 grams, making it easy to place on a rack, shelf, or desk without space concerns. With its fanless cooling system, it remains cool even during continuous operation
Do I need an additional power supply?
No, the switch uses standard AC power from a wall outlet via the included AC power cable (100 ~ 240 V), so no additional power supply is needed
Does the DGS-1008A support operation in high-temperature environments?
Yes, the switch supports operating temperatures from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius and storage temperatures from -10 to 70 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for use in rooms with high or fluctuating temperatures
Does it have surge or lightning protection?
The switch has Surge/Lightning Protection on both power ports (1kV) and all Ethernet ports (1kV), along with protection against air discharge (8kV) and contact discharge (4kV), ensuring safety even in areas with frequent lightning.
How much power does the DGS-1008A consume when idle?
When no devices are connected, the switch consumes only 0.7 watts in standby mode, with an automatic energy-saving feature that reduces power usage when no data is being transmitted, significantly lowering electricity costs.
Do I need to configure anything to use it?
No setup is required. The switch is unmanaged from the start—just plug it in and connect Ethernet cables to any port to use it immediately, without any configuration, making it ideal for general users or those without networking knowledge.
