Switch Gigabit Ethernet ROLINE Pocket 4 porte

The ROLINE Gigabit Ethernet Switch Pocket 4 Ports is a compact, metal-cased unmanaged switch designed to expand wired network connectivity in small office and home environments. It provides four 10/100/1000Base-TX ports with full-duplex operation and supports a MAC address table of 1K entries. The device can be powered by the included 5 V DC, 1.2 A adapter or via USB power from a PC, making it suitable for locations with limited space and flexible power options.

Advantages

This pocket-sized switch offers gigabit speeds on all four ports, auto-negotiation and Auto-MDI/MDIX for simple plug-and-play setup, and store-and-forward switching with non-blocking architecture to maintain stable throughput. The metal casing increases durability while the small footprint allows easy placement on a desk or in a compact SOHO environment.
