Switch non gestito TP-Link TL-SG108-M2 8 porte 2.5G desktop

Upgrade to a Super-Fast, Futuristic Network with a 5/8-Port 2.5G Desktop Switch that delivers Multi-Gig connectivity for home and small office environments. This desktop switch features five or eight 2.5-Gigabit ports that provide auto-negotiation across 100Mb/1G/2.5G speeds, up to 25/40 Gbps switching capacity, and compatibility with 2.5G NAS, 2.5G PCIe adapters, gaming consoles, Wi‑Fi 6 access points, 4K video sources, and standard desktop devices. The fanless metal design supports desktop placement or wall mounting and integrates with existing Cat5e cabling to increase throughput without rewiring.

Advantages

The switch provides Multi-Gig throughput up to 2.5× faster than standard 1G ports while remaining compatible with existing Cat5e cables, reducing installation cost and complexity. A fanless, durable metal casing ensures silent operation and reliable heat dissipation for home or small office use. Auto-negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX enable plug-and-play deployment without special cables or technician setup. QoS support and low latency help prioritize time-sensitive traffic such as gaming and streaming.

Key specifications

• Ports: 5 or 8 × 2.5G Ethernet ports (auto-negotiation 100Mb/1G/2.5G)
• Switching capacity: up to 25 Gbps (5-port model) or 40 Gbps (8-port model)
• Cable compatibility: works with Cat5e cables (no Cat6 upgrade required)
• Design: fanless, metal casing; desktop placement or wall-mountable
• Features: Auto MDI/MDIX, plug-and-play installation, QoS support

How to use

Place the switch on a desktop or mount it to a wall using the included mounting points. Connect devices using Cat5e or better Ethernet cables to any of the 2.5G ports; the ports will auto-negotiate the optimal speed with connected devices. Connect the switch to your router or modem if needed for internet access. No special configuration is required for basic operation—simply power the unit and connect your devices. Use QoS settings (if available in your network) to prioritize latency-sensitive traffic like gaming or video streaming.

Recommendations

Use good-quality Cat5e cables and ensure connected devices support multi-gig speeds to achieve near-2.5G throughput. For best thermal performance, allow airflow around the metal casing even though the unit is fanless. For environments with many high-bandwidth devices, choose the 8-port model to maximize switching capacity.
