NETGEAR GS316-311NAS 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Ethernet Switch

A straightforward, plug-and-play solution for home and small office networks, this NETGEAR 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Switch delivers reliable Gigabit connectivity with auto-sensing ports for easy setup. The compact desktop form factor and included wallmount kit let you place the switch where it fits your SOHO (small office/home office) environment. Built for quiet, durable operation, the GS316v3 features a rugged metal enclosure and a fanless design that runs silently. Networking convenience is provided by Auto-MDI/MDIX (eliminating the need for crossover cables), auto-negotiation to establish the highest possible link speeds, and jumbo packet support for improved large-frame performance. Under the hood, a non-blocking switching architecture ensures maximum throughput across all 16 ports. The unit also incorporates energy-saving technologies — IEEE 802.3az and short cable power reduction — to lower power consumption without sacrificing performance.
