D-Link 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Switch

Upgrade your corporate network infrastructure to high-speed connectivity with the D-Link 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Switch. Engineered for growing small-to-medium businesses, office branches, schools, and creative studios, this high-density desktop switch provides an economical solution to link up to 16 Ethernet-enabled devices. Delivering blazing 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit speeds across all ports, energy-saving D-Link Green technology, and fanless silent operation, it ensures high-speed plug-and-play network expansion without IT setup complexity.

Sleek Compact Build & Silent Operation
Designed with a compact, durable chassis, the D-Link 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Switch integrates seamlessly into modern office environments. Its passive thermal design efficiently dissipates heat without requiring internal cooling fans. This fanless construction guarantees 100% silent operation, making it an ideal network expansion solution for noise-sensitive workspaces, libraries, conference rooms, and open-plan offices.

High-Speed 32Gbps Gigabit Performance

Experience lightning-fast internal file transfers, smooth 4K video streaming, and seamless cloud backups across your entire workplace. Featuring 32Gbps of total non-blocking switching fabric, all 16 ports deliver full-duplex Gigabit throughput simultaneously. Store-and-forward architecture combined with IEEE 802.3x flow control prevents packet loss, ensuring optimal data packet delivery during heavy peak traffic.

Unmanaged Plug-and-Play Setup
Expanding your local area network (LAN) requires no specialized IT expertise or management software. All 16 ports feature auto-negotiation to detect optimal link speeds 10 Mbps, 100Mbps, or 1000 Mbps and full/half-duplex operating modes automatically. Integrated auto-MDI/MDIX crossover detection lets you connect standard straight-through Ethernet patch cords to any port effortlessly.

D-Link Green Energy Efficiency
Lower your operational power costs while supporting sustainable business operations. The DGS-1016C integrates D-Link Green technology alongside IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standards. The switch automatically monitors link statuses to place idle ports into low-power standby modes and adjusts electricity usage based on detected cable lengths, delivering energy savings without compromising overall performance.
