The D-Link DSS-16+ is truly a Plug-&-Play switch, with features like:
Auto Speed Sensing. The Switch senses whether a network device is running at 10Mbps or 100Mbps and automatically adjusts for optimal performance.
Auto Negotiation (Full or Half Duplex). Whether you are running at Half- or in Full-Duplex, the Switch automatically negotiates and runs the highest supported transmission rate.
Auto MDI/MDIX Crossover. All ports support auto-negotiating MDI/MDIX detection, which eliminates the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. The DSS-16+ is the perfect choice for Plug-&-Play support for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T networks.
Wire-speed Performance
The DSS-16+ features a non-blocking wire-speed architecture, with a 3.2Gbps switching capacity, for maximum data throughput. The DSS-16+ also features an integrated universal power supply, and per port diagnostics LEDs that make it easy to “spot check" for problems. With wire-speed filtering and Store-and-Forward switching, the DSS-16+ maximizes network performance while minimizing the propagation of bad network packets.
Exceptional Value
Each DSS-16+ is backed by a limited 5-year warranty on the electronics (3 year limited warranty for fans/power supplies) and comes standard with free tech support. Support materials including Electronic documentation, FAQs, installation guides, and product manuals are available 24hrs a day via D-Link's free support site at http://support.dlink.com.
By combining ease of use, unsurpassed 10/100BASE-T switching performance, and world-class support, the DSS-16+ raises the price-performance bar for unmanaged Layer 2 switching.
