D-Link DGS-1008A 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch

D-Link DGS-1008A 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch in Bangladesh

The D-Link DGS-1008A 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch offers a simple, high-speed networking boost for homes, small offices, or workgroups. Equipped with 8 Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mbps) RJ-45 ports, it provides full wire-speed connections allowing PCs, NAS devices, gaming consoles, printers, and media devices to communicate at gigabit rates. Because it is unmanaged and plug-and-play, there is no configuration required: connect your devices, power it up, and the switch handles everything else (speed negotiation, flow control, etc.).

One of its standout features is energy efficiency. The switch includes D-Link’s Green Ethernet technology, which reduces power usage by detecting idle or inactive ports and adjusting power output based on cable length. It also supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE). The fanless design ensures silent operation and lower maintenance.

Also designed with robustness and reliability in mind, the switch supports Jumbo frames (~9,200-10,000 bytes) for efficient large-packet transfers, flow control (802.3x) to reduce packet loss under heavy traffic, and Quality of Service (QoS) features to prioritize time-sensitive traffic such as video or voice. Its compact metal/plastic housing and lightweight design make it suitable for placement on desktops or shelves without taking much space. For users who want a reliable, silent, and efficient way to expand wired connectivity without management complexity, the DGS-1008A fits the bill.

✅ Key Features

• 8 × Gigabit RJ-45 Ports: Full 10/100/1000Base-T support, auto-negotiation, auto-MDI/MDIX for all ports. 

• Green Energy & Power-Saving: Automatically powers down unused ports; reduces power per port when cable is short; supports 802.3az. 

• Fanless and Silent Operation: No fan means no moving parts or noise, low other failure vectors. 

• QoS & Flow Control: Prioritize latency-sensitive traffic; prevent congestion with 802.1p queues and 802.3x flow control. 

• Jumbo Frame Support: Up to ~9,200-10,000 byte frames for improved performance when transferring large files. 

• Robust Build & Compact Size: Lightweight (~130g), dimensions ~130×79×22 mm; operates in a wide temperature/humidity envelope. 

✅ Why Buy This Product

• If you need more wired Ethernet ports with full gigabit speeds and want to avoid bottlenecks, this switch gives you 8 such ports with non-blocking throughput, so you won't lose performance in everyday usage.

• The energy-saving features help reduce power consumption (both in idle ports and in cable-length based savings), which can help lower electricity bills and reduce heat output.

• Because it’s fanless and unmanaged, it's maintenance-free and silent—ideal for noise-sensitive environments like offices, study rooms, or near audio/video setups.

• QoS and large buffer/Jumbo frames mean more stable performance for things like video streaming or large file transfers, especially under load.

• The build quality, surge protection, and environmental tolerance make it reliable over years of use, even under less-than-ideal conditions.
