D-Link DSS (DSS8+) 8-Ports External Switch. The D-Link DSS-8+ is a Dual-Speed 8-port 10/100Mb Ethernet/Fast Ethernet NWay auto-negotiating Switch. It is designed to eliminate unnecessary traffic, and relieve congestion by delivering dedicated bandwidth for each of the eight ports. Each port can connect to either an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet device. NWay auto-negotiation automatically determines the transmission speed of the attached device on each port.Designed at bringing switching to the desktop, the DSS-8+ delivers high speed switching capabilities at the lowest cost per port in the industry. The DSS-8+ provides dynamic buffer allocation that employs network-load balancing for faster data handling. The uplink interface connection enables easy expansion. The DSS-8+ uses fast store and forward architecture to ensure low latency and high data integrity. Supports MII interface for flexible media connection and expansion capabilities.
