Now you can have a powerful, high-speed network on a small scale. NETGEAR's GS116
Gigabit Ethernet Switch lets you build a system that provides a full, dedicated 1000 Mbps
connections so you can move very large files across your network instantly. The standards-
based GS116 helps to protect your existing and future network infrastructure investments
by painlessly integrating other 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps devices. This potent switch is ideal
for workgroups or quickly upgrading workstations to full Gigabit speed, plus it's packed with
ease-of-use features to simplify your workday experience. It's compact design fits neatly into
small work spaces and, since it's self-cooling without a fan, it runs silently and unobtrusively.
Moves huge files fast! Features 16 high-speed, auto-switching 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet
connections. And because Copper Gigabit Ethernet is a full duplex standard, you can get up to
2000 Mbps on each port.
Integrates 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps devices on the same network and will honor Layer 2 802.1p
traffic priority tags. Every port automatically senses the right speed and full/half duplex mode, while
Auto Uplink

LEDs embedded in each of the 16 RJ-45 jacks make for easy monitoring. Space-saving dimensions
are ideal for desktop or wall mounting in home, small office, workgroups, departments and
conference room environments. Its durable metal case has no fan for silent operation. Compatible
with either PC, Macintosh, Unix, or Linux operating systems.

effective solution for your growing network. This switch is made to last and NETGEAR backs it
