This new generation TL-SG116 16-Port 10\/100\/1000Mbps Desktop Switch features the latest innovative energy-efficient technologies that can greatly expand your network capacity with much less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to the link status and cable length to limit the carbon footprint of your network. 802.1p and DSCP QoS enable smooth latency-sensitive traffic such as voice and video, and IGMP Snooping optimizes the Multicast data stream. The auto features of this gigabit switch make installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is required. Auto MDI\/MDIX eliminate the need for crossover cables. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNetworking\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:14px;margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold;width:35%;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eTP-Link\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold;width:35%;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eTL-SG116\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold;width:35%;\"\u003eStandards\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eIEEE 802.3i\/802.3u\/802.3ab\/802.3x\/802.1p\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold;width:35%;\"\u003eQoS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 12px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e802.1p and DSCP;
