D-Link DGS-1100-08P 8-Port Gigabit PoE Smart Managed Switch
The D-Link DGS-1100-08P is an 8-port Gigabit PoE smart managed switch designed for businesses that need to power network devices directly through the Ethernet cable while still keeping control over traffic. It delivers Power over Ethernet on all 8 ports, with a 64W total PoE power budget, so IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points run without separate power adapters cluttering the installation. Because it supports the 802.3af PoE standard, it can supply up to 15.4W per port, which comfortably covers most cameras and phones without exceeding the switch’s total power budget. Unlike a purely unmanaged switch, the DGS-1100-08P adds a web-based management interface, giving administrators control over VLANs, QoS, and IGMP snooping. As a result, it suits Kenyan SMEs and installers deploying CCTV systems, since a single device handles both connectivity and power for surveillance cameras across an office, retail shop, or gated compound. Its fanless metal housing further keeps operation silent, which matters in reception areas and smaller offices around Nairobi where noise from cooling fans can be distracting.
Key Features
- 8 x Gigabit PoE ports supporting 802.3af with a 64W total PoE power budget
- Smart managed features — VLAN (802.1Q, port-based, voice, surveillance), QoS, and IGMP snooping (up to 128 groups)
- Fanless metal desktop housing for silent, dust-resistant operation
- 9,216-byte jumbo frame support for handling large data packets without fragmentation
- 11.9 Mpps maximum forwarding rate with a 4,160-entry MAC address table for reliable multi-device performance
