2.3 Plug & Play Operation
The DGS-108 is an unmanaged switch, meaning it requires zero configuration. Once powered on and connected to your network devices, it will automatically detect and establish connections, providing immediate network expansion.
3. Кіраванне перамыкачом
3.1 Асноўныя функцыянальныя магчымасці
The DGS-108 provides 8 auto-negotiating Gigabit Ethernet ports, supporting full/half duplex operation with speeds up to 2Gbps per port (1Gbps up + 1Gbps down). It acts as a non-blocking switching engine, ensuring efficient data transfer between connected devices.
3.2 Святлодыёдныя індыкатары
Each port on the DGS-108 has an associated LED indicator that provides visual feedback on its status:
- Link/Activity LED (Green):
- Цвёрды зялёны: Indicates a valid network link is established at Gigabit speed (1000 Mbps).
- Міргае зялёным: Indicates network activity (data transmission or reception) on the port.
- Выключана: No network link is detected or the connected device is powered off.
The power LED on the right side of the switch indicates if the device is receiving power.
3.3 Smart QoS Prioritization
The switch incorporates 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) traffic classes. This feature prioritizes time-sensitive and important data packets, such as those for voice (VoIP), video streaming, and online gaming, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted performance even when the network is under heavy load.
3.4 IGMP Snooping for IPTV & Multicast
IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) Snooping enables the switch to efficiently manage multicast traffic. This is particularly beneficial for applications like IPTV and 4K/8K video streaming, as it prevents multicast streams from flooding the entire network, directing them only to the ports where devices have requested them.
3.5 Jumbo Frame Support
The DGS-108 supports Jumbo Frames up to 9KB. This feature allows for larger data packets to be transmitted, which can significantly boost throughput for tasks involving large backups and multimedia transfers between Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices and personal computers.
4. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне
4.1 Ачыстка
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your DGS-108 switch, keep it clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Avoid using liquid cleaners or aerosols, as they may damage the device.
4.2 Экалагічныя меркаванні
The DGS-108 features a fanless metal housing designed to dissipate heat naturally. Ensure that the switch is placed in a location with adequate airflow and is not obstructed by other objects. This helps maintain optimal operating temperature and contributes to the device's long-term reliability.

Figure 4.1: D-Link Green technology reduces energy consumption by up to 93% when connected devices are powered up and support EEE, up to 81% when devices are powered down, and up to 76% using Ethernet cables 3m or less.
