The TP-Link TL-SG116 is an unmanaged gigabit desktop switch designed to expand your wired network with sixteen 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 ports. It handles data efficiently using a store-and-forward transmission method and a 4.1 Mb packet buffer, while a MAC address table of 8K ensures stable connectivity across multiple devices. To keep your connection smooth, it utilizes 802.1p/DSCP QoS and IGMP Snooping, which prioritize critical traffic and optimize multicast streams for a more consistent experience. Built for reliability, the device is housed in a sturdy steel casing and features a fanless design that allows it to operate silently in any environment. You can place it on a desk using the included rubber feet or secure it to a wall for a cleaner setup, and a provided lock adds a layer of physical security. Its Green Ethernet technology helps reduce power consumption by adjusting energy use based on the link status and the length of the connected cables, keeping the maximum power draw at 10W.
