FEATURED REVIEWS
Good for complex home network
Capable enough for a complex home network. With a VLAN capable router this switch serves as the root of other managed and unmanaged switches and direct drops. Separates Core, Guest, and IoT VLANs with space left over
Great switch for security monitoring
These switches are great for applications where you need something more than an unmanaged switch, but more than nothing. I choose these when I need port mirroring for security monitoring and nothing else.
When it comes to managing your growing business's network needs, the GS108E 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Plus Switch is a game-changer. With the increasing reliance on networks for mission-critical activities, businesses are placing more applications such as VoIP phones and IP cameras on their Ethernet infrastructure. This smart managed switch is designed to handle this increased network traffic efficiently and securely.
The GS108E Smart Managed Plus Switch goes beyond plug-and-play connectivity, offering essential networking features like VLAN, QoS, IGMP Snooping, and Link Aggregation. These features optimize the performance of your business network, making it an exceptional value for businesses looking to add intelligence to their network beyond what unmanaged switches can provide.
With the ability to set up and configure QoS, this Gigabit Smart Managed Plus Switch can detect different types of network traffic and prioritize latency-sensitive traffic, such as voice and video. This ensures the high-quality delivery of VoIP, multimedia broadcasting, and video conferencing applications.
The GS108E Smart Managed Plus Switch also allows you to divide large networks into smaller, more manageable groups. This improves overall network performance, adds security to network traffic, and makes more efficient use of network resources.
One of the standout features of this switch is its cable diagnostic feature. This allows users to easily determine the health status of their network cables, quickly locate any problems, and fix connectivity issues faster, potentially saving hours of troubleshooting.
The switch also features IGMP snooping for optimized multimedia traffic delivery. By maintaining a map of which links need which IP multicast streams, the switch can forward multicast traffic only to the links that have requested them, optimizing multicast performance at Layer 2.
The GS108E 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Plus Switch also offers advanced configuration and management using a web browser-based GUI, making it easy to manage or deploy multiple switches. With its high-speed data transfer, advanced features, and smart management, this switch is an ideal solution for small to medium-sized offices or home networks.
