## Summary description

The D-Link 8-Port 2.5G Multi-Gigabit Desktop Switch is an unmanaged L2 switch featuring 8 2.5G Ethernet ports. It supports a switching capacity of 40 Gbit/s and a MAC address table with 4000 entries. Ideal for high-speed networking needs, it complies with various IEEE standards for reliable performance.

## Long description

The D-Link 8-Port 2.5G Multi-Gigabit Desktop Switch (DMS-108) is an unmanaged L2 switch that provides eight 2.5Gbps Ethernet ports in a compact metal housing. It delivers multi-gigabit connectivity for desktop networks, enabling faster file transfers, smooth video streaming and reduced network bottlenecks for home or small office environments.
Advantages
All eight ports support 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet to increase throughput without replacing cabling, and the switch is plug-and-play so no configuration is required. The fanless metal enclosure improves durability and allows silent operation while Link Status detection and IEEE 802.3az support reduce power consumption by powering down inactive ports. QoS, Flow Control and IGMP Snooping help prioritise traffic and minimise unwanted multicast data for better streaming and file transfer performance.
Suitable for
Expanding wired networks in homes or small offices
Connecting Wi‑Fi 6 access points to avoid wireless backhaul bottlenecks
High-speed local file transfers between PCs, servers and NAS
Smooth IPTV and multicast video streaming
Key specifications
Ports: 8 × 2.5G Ethernet (100/1000/2500 Mbps)
Switching capacity: 40 Gbit/s
MAC address table: 4000 entries
Standards: IEEE 802.1p, 802.3, 802.3ab, 802.3az, 802.3bz, 802.3u, 802.3x
Type: Unmanaged L2 switch
Colour: Black
Weight: 0.343 kg
How to use
Place the switch on a stable surface in a well‑ventilated area. Connect your router, PC, NAS or Wi‑Fi 6 access points to the 2.5G RJ‑45 ports using standard Ethernet cables. The device is plug‑and‑play: it powers on and automatically establishes link and speed with connected devices. Use QoS-capable endpoints or upstream devices to prioritise traffic if required; no switch configuration is necessary.
Usage recommendations
For best results, connect high‑bandwidth devices (NAS, servers, Wi‑Fi 6 APs) to the 2.5G ports to avoid bottlenecks. Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling to support multi‑gigabit speeds and place the fanless switch where airflow is not obstructed to help heat dissipation.
