Hallitsematon kytkin ACT AC4418 8 porttia Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000

The ACT AC4418 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch is an unmanaged network switch with eight 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 ports providing full-wire speed switching and full-duplex communication. The switch features a solid metal, fanless housing for improved heat dissipation and quiet operation, built-in status LEDs for power, link and activity, and mounting holes for desk or wall installation. It supports standard IEEE Ethernet protocols and includes auto-negotiation and automatic crossover detection for simplified connections.

Advantages

The metal, fanless design provides reliable heat dissipation and silent operation while the unmanaged architecture requires no configuration. Auto-negotiation and automatic crossover detection ensure correct link speeds and allow direct connections to other switches without a crossover cable. Integrated LEDs give immediate visual feedback on power, link and activity for each port.

Suitable for

• Small office or home networks that need additional gigabit ports
• Network edge or access layer installations where unmanaged switching is acceptable
• Wall- or desk-mounted networks in compact racks or equipment rooms

Key specifications

• Ports: 8 × Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) RJ-45
• Switch type: Unmanaged
• Switching capacity: 16 Gbit/s (full-wire speed)
• Duplex: Half and full duplex support
• Housing: Solid metal, fanless design (grey)
• Mounting: Desk and wall mountable
• Standards: IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3ab
• Other features: Auto-negotiation, automatic crossover detection, per-port status LEDs

How to use

Place or mount the switch on a desk or wall using the dedicated mounting holes. Connect each network device using standard Ethernet cables into the RJ-45 ports. The switch is plug-and-play: it will automatically detect link speed and duplex settings and handle packet switching without additional configuration. Use the status LEDs to verify power, link and activity on each port.

Recommendations

Install the switch in a well-ventilated location to ensure optimal passive cooling. Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables to achieve stable Gigabit performance and avoid stacking unmanaged switches in series when possible to maintain predictable network behaviour.
