Mercusys MS108GP - 8-Port Gigabit Desktop Power over Ethernet Plus Switch, Black

This unmanaged, plug-and-play switch expands wired network capacity with no configuration required. The Mercusys MS108GP 8-Port Gigabit Desktop PoE+ switch has eight RJ45 ports that run at Gigabit speeds. Seven of these ports support Power over Ethernet Plus, sharing a 65 W power budget according to IEEE 802.3af/at standards. Integrated power delivery allows data and electricity to be sent over a single cable to IP cameras or wireless access points. New hardware is connected using automated link detection, which removes the need for manual configuration.

Housed in a black metal chassis, this desktop model is designed for durability and passive heat dissipation. Its fanless design ensures silent operation, making it suitable for quiet environments. Measuring 171 x 98 x 27 mm, the unit is compact and saves desk space. Integrated wall-mounting keyholes offer an alternative placement option, helping to keep cable runs tidy. The system uses a standard AC power input and consumes up to 77.33 W under full load.

• A 16 Gbit/s switching capacity handles concurrent data streams without creating network bottlenecks.
• An 8000-entry MAC address table manages traffic routing for local networks.
• Hardware support for 9 KB jumbo frames improves transfer efficiency for large files or local backups.
• Auto-MDI/MDIX detection removes the need for crossover cables when connecting to routers or other hardware.
• IEEE 802.3x flow control regulates transmission rates to prevent packet loss during traffic bursts.
• Quality of Service (QoS) prioritises specific traffic types to maintain stability for latency-sensitive voice and video applications.
