Network switch LOGILINK NS1324 — 24-port 10/100 RJ45, up to 1 Gbps per port

LOGILINK NS1324 is a 24-port network switch with 10/100 Mbps RJ45 interfaces and support for up to 1 Gbps per port. It is intended for expanding wired network capacity in small offices, laboratories and home networks where multiple Ethernet devices — such as desktop PCs, network printers and IP terminals — require reliable connectivity. The compact rackable design and plug-and-play setup allow straightforward integration into existing Ethernet infrastructures.

Advantages

The switch offers 24 copper RJ45 ports with auto-negotiation for 10/100 Mbps operation and the capability to handle up to 1 Gbps throughput on compatible links. Auto-MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables and simplifies installation. With store-and-forward switching, the device manages frame forwarding and reduces collisions in busy network segments. Its metal housing provides physical durability for continuous operation in office or lab environments.

Suitable for

• Small and home office Ethernet expansion
• Connecting multiple workstations, printers and IP devices
• Lab and classroom networking where many wired ports are required
• Temporary network setups for events or testing environments

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 24 RJ45 ports
• Port speed: 10/100 Mbps per port with auto-negotiation
• Maximum per-port throughput: up to 1 Gbps on compatible links
• Switching method: store-and-forward
• Auto-MDI/MDIX on ports
• Suitable for desktop or rack placement

How to use

Place the LOGILINK NS1324 on a stable surface or mount it in a rack if applicable, connect the power supply and use standard Ethernet cables to attach computers, printers and other network devices to the RJ45 ports. The switch is plug-and-play: connected devices will negotiate link speed automatically and begin communicating without additional configuration. For optimal performance, connect gigabit-capable devices to ports that support higher throughput and ensure connected cables meet category requirements for the desired speed.

Usage recommendations

Use shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cables of appropriate category (e.g., Cat5e or higher) to achieve reliable connections; separate high-traffic devices across ports to balance load; place the switch in a ventilated area and avoid exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures to maintain consistent operation.
