What does this product do?

The TL-SG108E Gigabit Easy Smart switch with 8 connections is an ideal upgrade for an unmanaged switch and intended for SMB networks with simple network management. The network administrator can efficiently monitor traffic using port mirroring, loop prevention and cable diagnostics features. To optimize traffic across your enterprise network, the TL-SG108E provides both port- and tag-based QoS, so that delay-sensitive traffic is handled smoothly and without interference. Moreover, port- and tag-based and MTU VLAN can achieve better security and meet the demand for more network segmentation. With its innovative power-saving technology, the TL-SG108E can save up to 80% on power consumption, making it an eco-friendly solution for your business network.

Simple and effective management

TP-LINK's TL-SG108E gigabit easy smart switch offers network monitoring that allows the administrator to control traffic. Using port mirroring, loop prevention and cable diagnostics, the TL-SG108E can identify and even pinpoint connection problems in your business network. The system administrator can prioritize traffic based on port priorities and 802.1P priority to ensure that voice and video are always clear, smooth and lag-free. In addition, the TL-SG108E supports MTU VLAN, port-based VLAN and 802.1Q-based VLAN features to improve network security and performance. The TL-SG108E is a plug-and-play unmanaged switch upgrade that is well worth its money and also offers great benefits for the network and the end user.

Turn your Ethernet to green

now have the choice to go green when upgrading to a gigabit network! The new generation of the TL-SG108E gigabit easy smart switch with 8 connections is equipped with the latest energy-efficient technologies, which increase your network capacity and significantly reduce power consumption. Power consumption is automatically adjusted according to connection status and cable length to reduce the carbon footprint of your network.

Disable inactive connections

When a computer or network device is off, the associated connection of a traditional switch continues to consume significant amounts of power The TL-SG108E can automatically monitor the connection status of each connection and reduce the power consumption of connections that are inactive.

Power budget by cable length

Ideally, a shorter cable should consume less power and give less power loss. However, this is not the case with most devices because they consume the same amount of power through the cable, regardless of whether it is 10 or 50 meters long. The TL-SG108E analyzes the length of the connected Ethernet cable and adjusts power consumption accordingly, rather than conventionally using power consumption

Easy to use

The TL-SG108E is easy to use and manage. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all connections eliminates the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each connector senses the connection speed of a network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and adjusts it for optimal compatibility and performance. Its compact size makes it ideal for placement on a desk or in a rack, practical and secure. The dynamic LED lights show the current status and diagnosis of any errors.
