Switch Gigabit Ethernet VALUE 21.99.1193 10/100/1000 Mbps, unmanaged, 8 porte

VALUE Gigabit Ethernet switch model 21.99.1193 delivers 10/100/1000 Mbps wired connectivity through eight gigabit RJ45 ports. This unmanaged switch provides plug-and-play operation that expands wired LAN capacity for desktops, printers and IP devices without the need for configuration. The metal compact housing and fanless design make it suitable for small office, home network and retail point-of-sale environments that require steady throughput, low latency and simple installation.

Advantages

The switch supports auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX on all ports to ensure straightforward connection to PCs, access points, network printers and other Ethernet devices. With full-duplex gigabit capability on each port, the device enables higher data rates and reduced congestion compared with Fast Ethernet. Being unmanaged, it requires no setup, firmware management or monitoring—ideal for deployments that need immediate expansion of wired network ports. The durable enclosure and energy-efficient operation reduce acoustic noise and space impact in constrained installations.

Suitable for

• Small office local area networks (LANs) where additional wired ports are needed
• Home networks for connecting desktops, NAS, smart TVs and wired access points
• Retail and POS systems requiring reliable Ethernet links for terminals and receipt printers
• Temporary network expansions at events or workshops that demand quick plug-and-play setup

Key specifications

• Port count: 8 x RJ45 gigabit ports
• Data rates: 10/100/1000 Mbps per port with auto-negotiation
• Operation: Unmanaged, plug-and-play
• Duplex mode: Half and full duplex support; flow control support
• Switching capacity: Gigabit switching fabric suitable for small LANs
• Housing: Compact, likely metal enclosure with fanless cooling
• Power: External or integrated power supply depending on regional SKU (check included adapter)
• LED indicators: Link/activity per port and power status

How to use

Place the switch on a flat, ventilated surface and connect the included power adapter to a suitable mains outlet. Use standard Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables to connect computers, printers, NAS or other network devices to the RJ45 ports. Devices will automatically negotiate the highest supported speed and duplex mode. No software configuration is required; when connected the link/activity LEDs will indicate operational status. For installations in visible areas, orient the unit so LEDs are easily monitored for link activity and troubleshooting.

Recommendations

For optimal performance use Cat5e or Cat6 cables for gigabit links, avoid coiling excess cable tightly, and place the switch away from heat sources. When deploying in business environments, plan device placement to minimize cable lengths between the switch and connected equipment. For PoE requirements or advanced management features, select a different model designed for those functions.
