Features & Benefits:

Compact, Streamlined, Affordable Switching for Small Offices.

The 3Com® Switch 8 is designed for small offices and remote branch offices requiring high network performance to exchange large data files and images, and access real-time information. Featuring an internal power supply, autosensing and auto MDI/MDIX on all ports, the Switch 8 is delivered in a futuristic, compact and streamlined enclosure. With a high quality dark gun metal grey look these switches exude quality, the 3Com logos "light up" on power up and they feature illuminating blue LEDs.

The 3Com Switch 8 automatically finds the fastest connection speed, the autosensing 10/100 ports automatically adjust to the speed of network devices communicating at 100 or 10 Mbps, so the switch can accommodate a range of workgroup applications. All that is needed is to connect the power and Ethernet cables.
