16-Port 10/100 Desktop/Rackmount Switch

The D-Link DSS-16+/RE is an unmanaged switch with 16 RJ45 ports running at 10/100Mbps. It fits on a desk or in a rack and requires no configuration. Small offices or home labs can expand wired connectivity instantly.

10/100Mbps Port Speed

Every port negotiates at 10 or 100Mbps using IEEE 802.3 Nway auto-negotiation. The switching fabric delivers 3.2Gbps total throughput with store-and-forward switching and a 160KB buffer. Gigabit speeds are not supported on any port.

Teams Needing Simple 10/100 Expansion

Suits users who only need Fast Ethernet for legacy devices, IP cameras or basic file sharing. Buyers who require Gigabit uplinks, VLAN segmentation, PoE power or managed features such as SNMP and port mirroring should look at a different switch.

Questions about this item

What does 10/100Mbps per port mean when the switch is in use?

Each port negotiates at either 10 or 100Mbps, so a single link will not exceed 100Mbps in real traffic.

What standard caps the speed on the RJ45 ports?

The ports follow IEEE802.3 and IEEE802.3u, limiting each connection to 100Mbps maximum.

What space is needed to mount this unit in a rack or on a desk?

It measures 11.0" x 1.7" x 7.1" and weighs 4.2 lbs, fitting a standard 1U rack slot or desktop area.
