8-Port Fast Ethernet Easy Desktop Switch
GO-SW-8E
The dlinkgo GO-SW-8E 8-Port Fast Ethernet Easy Desktop Switch allows you to quickly set
up a fast, reliable, and effi cient wired network in your home or offi ce. The GO-SW-8E is an
unmanaged 10/100Mbps switch designed to enhance small workgroup performance while
providing a high level of fl exibility. Powerful yet easy to use, this device allows users to simply
plug any port to either a 10Mbps or 100Mbps network to multiply bandwidths, boost response
time and satisfy heavy load demands. Connect the GO-SW-8E to multiple computers to share
fi les and folders, or connect it to a router to share an Internet connection.

Eff ortless High Speed Networking
The GO-SW-8E features easy access auto sensing 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports with a LED
indicator for each port to quickly distinguish link status and activity. These ports detect the
network speed and auto-negotiate between 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, as well as between full
and half-duplex, to get you the maximum speed possible for each device connected to your
network, for faster browsing, video streaming, and online gaming. The GO-SW-8E also supports
Auto MDI/MDIX Crossover, allowing you to connect each port directly to a server, hub, router, or
switch using regular straight-through twisted-pair Ethernet cables.

Reliable Plug and Play Installation
The GO-SW-8E is a Plug-and-Play device that requires no confi guration, so setup is simple and
hassle-free, so right away you’re easily able to connect multiple computers, share fi les, music,
and video across your home or small offi ce network, or even create a multi-player gaming
environment. 802.3x fl ow control on each port minimizes dropped packets when the port’s
receiving buff er is full. This gives you a more reliable connection for all of your connected
devices.
