Eight 10Gbps ports

The TL-SX1008 is an unmanaged Ethernet switch with eight RJ45 ports that each operate at up to 10Gbps. It delivers 160Gbps of total switching capacity for desktop or rackmount deployment. The unit runs on 110 volts and fits in a metal chassis measuring 11.57 by 7.09 by 1.73 inches.

Auto-negotiation across five speeds

Each port automatically detects and selects between 100Mbps, 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps and 10Gbps links. This allows direct connection of WiFi 6 access points, 10G NAS devices, servers and gaming PCs without manual configuration. IEEE 802.3X flow control and a speed-controlled fan keep data transfer reliable and noise low.

160Gbps non-blocking fabric

The 160Gbps switching capacity provides full line-rate throughput across all eight 10Gbps ports simultaneously. It handles multi-gigabit workloads such as 8K video editing, large NAS backups and low-latency LAN gaming without bottlenecks. Networks that require Power over Ethernet, managed features or more than eight 10Gbps connections will need a different switch.

Questions about this item

Will the fan need cleaning or replacement over time?

The smart fan adjusts its speed automatically to keep the switch cool while minimising noise; no user-service schedule is required.

Which limit appears first when all eight ports run at 10 Gbps continuously?

The 160 Gbps switching capacity handles full line-rate traffic on every port without bottleneck.

How much noise and heat does the unit produce during all-day operation?

The temperature-controlled fan runs quietly at low loads and ramps up only when sustained throughput pushes the metal chassis warmer.
