D-Link DES-1016D/E - 16-port Fast Ethernet unmanaged desktop switch

This unmanaged switch is ready to use immediately, providing a simple way to expand wired network capacity. The D-Link DES-1016D/E 16-port Fast Ethernet desktop switch serves as a connection hub for computers, printers, and other devices. It features 16 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet ports, with each interface supporting data transfer rates of up to 100 Mbps. Installation is entirely plug-and-play, requiring no software; devices connect automatically without the need for manual configuration.

The switch is housed in a durable metal casing designed for regular use. Measuring 324 x 231 x 44.5 mm, the unit is compact enough for a desktop. Its fanless design ensures silent operation, making it suitable for quiet environments such as offices or homes. An LED indicator displays the power status, and the wired connection provides a stable link for all connected devices.

• 3.2 Gbit/s total switching capacity supports simultaneous connections across all ports.
• 8000-entry MAC address table directs traffic to specific devices rather than broadcasting to all ports.
• Full-duplex capability allows each port to forward traffic at up to 200 Mbps to optimise throughput for compatible devices.
• 2 MB of internal memory buffers incoming packets to maintain stability during traffic spikes.
• 4 dedicated hardware queues help manage traffic flow during high network usage.
