FS116P provides power and data from a single point, using Power over Ethernet (PoE) over a single Cat-5 cable. The sixteen Fast Ethernet ports can be used for any 10/100 Mbps link and eight of these ports can supply industry-standard IEEE 802.3af power. Advanced auto-sensing algorithm gives power only to 802.3af end devices, so no need to worry about damaging proprietary PoE or non-PoE equipment. In addition, it discontinues the power when PoE devices are disconnected. Easy and reliable, the ProSafe FS116P automatically determines PoE requirements, speed, duplex, and cable type using AutoUplink. The affordably priced ProSafe FS116P delivers PoE to any small business network that wants to simplify the installation of wireless access points and IP-based surveillance cameras. These devices are optimally installed on a ceiling or high on a wall, away from most electrical outlets. PoE eliminates the requirement for a dedicated electrical outlet to power these devices. This allows for flexibility in situating devices where AC power is difficult to access and lowers installation costs. Compact and flexible, the ProSafe FS116P is ideal for small business network that want to inexpensively use PoE to deploy wireless access points and IP-based network surveillance cameras. Choose to plug in up to eight Ethernet or Fast Ethernet devices and mix in up to four 802.3af IP-based devices like wireless access points or IP-based network surveillance cameras. Place these 802.3af-compliant devices where they belong - high up on walls and ceiling for maximum coverage - or anywhere else you need them. Power and data are carried over standard Cat-5 cabling. The standards-based ProSafe FS116P senses and adjusts for network speed and cabling type automatically, for easy integration into your existing 10/100 Ethernet network. For PoE, the switch automatically detects 802.3af-compliant devices, and supplies power as needed.

Advantages: Poe on all ports, easy to set up, very user friendly web interface Disadvantages: none
...This is a fantastic value for money switch. With power over ethernet available on all ports you can de-clutter your office by removing the requirement for individual power adaptors for each phone whilst also offering easy portability for them. Additionally, placing your switch on a UPS means that all of your phones are kept powered up
This is a switch that suits all types - fromt he beginner, this can be tplugged in straight out of the box with no configuration required, or you can configure more advanced features such as VLans, DHCP, Quality of service, etc via an easy to use web interface.
Whether you're looking for your first switch or an upgrade to your existing network, this is a highly recommnded item that will offer you futureproofing as well....

Advantages: Easy to set up, configure and use Disadvantages: None
...We currently run an 80 user network in our office. While the main traffic of our network is handled by 6, 24 port rack mounted switches, my little IT office has 7 PCs in it with not enough ports on the wall to connect them up.
this poses a problem. To connect to our network, you need a network connection on the Wall. There are 4 connections in our office and 7 machines. Obviously 7 into 4 does not go so a solution was needed.
The answer?
A small desktop based switch that would allow us to connect up to 16 computers to one Network connection on the wall.
The Product?
Well we use Netgear equipment in our office because you know with Netgear, you are buying quality at an affordable price.
So we opted for the FS116DesktopSwitch.
The size of it?
Well its about an inch high and about a foot long. It is about 6 inches from fron to back...

Hot switch! Review ofNETGEARProSafeFS108 10/100DesktopSwitch - switch - 8portsby
PhilSp
Advantages: very compact Disadvantages: runs hot
...and i mean that litterally!
Out of all the switches i have - I have to say that the Netgear stuff runs hot! I have to put a PII heatsink on it! - even though it has vent slots around it - it does got hot during the summer, and just nice and warm during the winter.
It has link lights for all ports, and FDX lights for all ports too. ACtivity lights/collision you name it it has it.
It has lots of lights for everything - so you know exactly whats being used on you entire network. It also has a 'auto HDX/FDX' switch at the back which I find very useful.
There are cheaper switches, though they won't be made out of metal - like the netgear stuff - it'll be made out of cheap plastic.
customer support is good - PSU died on me - but they did manage to ship a replacement within a couple of weeks from the US.
