TP-Link 16-Port 10/100Mbps Rackmount Switch | TL-SF1016
The TP-Link TL-SF1016 is a 16-port 10/100Mbps unmanaged switch in a rack-mount size steel case with a safety-certified internal power supply. All 16 ports support auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDIX for plug-and-play installation, and the fanless design keeps it silent in the rack.

Rack-Mount Steel Case: The rack-mount size steel case and the internal 100-240VAC power supply make the switch robust and easy to install in a network cabinet, with no external adapter to manage.
Full Wire-Speed Performance: A non-blocking switching architecture forwards and filters packets at full wire speed: 3.2Gbps switching capacity, 2.38Mpps forwarding rate and an 8K MAC address table.
Easy to Use: Auto-negotiation senses each device's link speed (10 or 100Mbps) and Auto MDI/MDIX removes the need for crossover cables, so no configuration is required. IEEE 802.3x flow control and backpressure help prevent congestion.
Who it's for / Works with: Upgrading older networks to 100Mbps and business environments with fewer than 16 users, as described by TP-Link.
Good to know: The ports run at up to 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet), not Gigabit. This is an unmanaged switch with no web settings or VLAN, and it does not support PoE.
