D-Link DES-1024D 24-Port 10/100Mbps Unmanaged Switch
The D-Link DES-1024D is a 24-port unmanaged Fast Ethernet switch built for small offices and larger workgroups needing to connect many devices on one wired network. Every port auto-senses network speed (10Mbps or 100Mbps) and auto-negotiates duplex mode, while Auto MDI/MDIX crossover removes the need for crossover cables when connecting to another switch or computer. A non-blocking, wire-speed architecture delivers a 4.8Gbps switching capacity, keeping data moving efficiently even under heavy workgroup load. The switch requires no configuration or software to set up, and its durable metal housing supports both desktop and rack-mount placement, with a completely fanless design for silent operation.
Key Features
- 24 auto-sensing 10/100Mbps ports, supporting up to 200Mbps per port in full-duplex mode
- Non-blocking wire-speed architecture with 4.8Gbps switching capacity, for maximum data throughput
- Auto MDI/MDIX crossover, eliminating the need for crossover cables or dedicated uplink ports
- Plug-and-play setup, requiring no configuration or software installation
- Fanless, durable metal housing, supporting both desktop and rack-mount installation
