-
Wi-Fi 6 Ready: Ideal companion for Wi-Fi 6 access points with 2.5G WAN ports, allowing you to take full advantage of next-generation wireless speeds
-
Silent Fanless Design: Operates quietly without distracting noise, making it perfect for home offices, bedrooms, and quiet work environments
-
Plug & Play Simplicity: Unmanaged switch requires no configuration or software installation - just connect and go
-
Energy-Efficient Technology: IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) reduces power consumption during low network utilization and idle periods
Advanced Multi-Gigabit Performance for Modern Networks
The DMS-108 is designed to unlock the full potential of your 2.5G devices and Wi-Fi 6 network. Whether you're connecting a 2.5G NAS for rapid file transfers, a gaming PC for low-latency performance, or Wi-Fi 6 access points for maximum wireless throughput, this switch delivers the speed and reliability you need. The auto-negotiation feature intelligently senses link speeds and adjusts between 100Mb, 1G, and 2.5G for optimal compatibility with all your devices. Best of all, it works seamlessly with existing Cat5e or Cat6 cables, so you can upgrade to 2.5 Gbps without expensive rewiring.
Intelligent Traffic Management & Quality of Service
The DMS-108 offers advanced features typically found in more expensive managed switches. IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) classifies network traffic into 8 priority levels, ensuring time-sensitive data like VoIP calls, video conferencing, and gaming traffic gets priority over less critical data. IEEE 802.3x Flow Control helps minimize dropped packets by temporarily pausing data transmission when the switch's buffer is full, providing a more reliable connection for all connected devices. IGMP Snooping optimizes multicast data streams for bandwidth-intensive applications like IPTV and video streaming.
Durable Metal Housing & Flexible Installation
Built to last, the DMS-108 features a sturdy metal housing that improves heat dissipation and enhances durability, allowing the switch to operate reliably in wider temperature ranges. The compact design with desktop or wall-mount options makes it easy to install wherever you need network connectivity. Per-port LED indicators provide at-a-glance status monitoring, showing link activity and connection speeds for easy troubleshooting.
Energy-Efficient & Eco-Friendly Design
D-Link is committed to environmental responsibility. The DMS-108 incorporates IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) technology that automatically reduces power consumption when network utilization is low. Link status detection automatically powers down ports when no device is connected, saving energy when ports are not in use. The switch is RoHS compliant, meeting strict environmental standards for reduced hazardous materials.
