The D-Link 8-Port Desktop Switch with 4 PoE Ports DES-1008P enables both home and office users to easily connect and supply power to Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices such as wireless Access Points (AP), IP cameras, and IP phones while adding more Ethernet devices like computers, printers, and Network Attached Storage (NAS) onto a network. This compact PoE switch is built with home and small business users in mind, making it ideal for use in virtually any room or office.
The DES‑1008P provides a compact, quiet solution for home and small‑office networks, allowing easy connection of PoE devices such as wireless access points, IP cameras and IP phones while also supporting standard Ethernet devices like computers, printers and NAS. It complies with IEEE 802.3af, offering four PoE‑enabled ports that each supply up to 15.4 W and a total PoE budget of 56 W, reducing cable clutter.
Installation is plug‑and‑play with no configuration required. Auto‑MDI/MDI‑X and auto‑negotiation ensure seamless connectivity, while diagnostic LEDs and store‑and‑forward switching help monitor and maintain optimal network performance.
