8-Port Gigabit
Ethernet Switch
GSW-0807
Product Overview
LevelOne's GSW-0807 is a high-performance
10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet switch with
8 Gigabit Ethernet ports. It provides a robust
16 Gbps backplane so users can utilize a Gigabit
LAN network without bandwidth limitations.
GSW-0807 is ideal for micro-segmenting large
networks into smaller, connected subnets
for improved performance, enabling the
bandwidth demanding multimedia and imaging
applications.
It is 1000BASE-T compliant and supports full-
and half duplex auto-detection modes. It
further supports MDI/MDI-X auto crossover and
IEEE802.3x ow control.
Save Power With LevelOne Green Technology
Active Link Detection: A LevelOne Green device
can tell if there is activity on each individual
LAN port. If an 8-port switch only has 6 active
devices connected to it, power is saved because
no trafc is routed to the 2 inactive ports.
Cable Length Detection: The switch is able to
detect the distance of the connected device and
adjusts its power accordingly. For example, if
you have a LevelOne Green switch a computer
connected to a 10-meter cable will consume
less power than a computer connected to a
100-meter cable.
Sleep Mode: The device will enter sleep/standby
mode when the connected devices are powered
down and no active links are detected. This
helps save energy consumption during extended
periods of network inactivity, such as nights,
weekends and holidays.
