The GS308-300UKS is a plug-and-play switch with a compact design and auto-sensing ports. Illuminating LEDs indicate power, PoE maximum power, link activity, speed, PoE active, and any PoE faults at a glance, and the plug-and-play configuration means easy and instant expansion of your network with setup requirements kept to a bare minimum. Other features include a rugged metal case, auto-MDI/MDIX (eliminating the need for crossover cables), jumbo packet support, and energy-efficient technology for power savings (IEEE 802.3az and short cable power reduction). Also featured is a fanless design, providing both silent operation and reduced energy consumption, and non-blocking switching architecture for maximum throughput at wire speed.
