About the D-Link DGS-1008A 8 Port Gigabit Desktop Switch

Why Gigabit Matters

Many fibre packages in Bangladesh now go beyond 100 Mbps. A Fast Ethernet switch would cap those plans at 100 Mbps on every wired device. With Gigabit ports, your wired devices can use the full speed of your line.

Smart Traffic Priority

The DGS-1008A has QoS that prioritises time-sensitive traffic during busy moments. If someone downloads a large file, your video call can still stay smooth. You do not have to set this up, because it works automatically.

Easy Desktop Switch

This is an unmanaged plug and play switch with eight 1000Base-T ports. There is no software, login or web panel to learn. You connect the cables and power, and the whole network is ready in minutes.

Design & Performance

Design and Build

The switch has a clean white case that looks neat beside a router or TV. It is small, at about 130 x 79 x 22 mm, so it fits on a shelf or desk. The front shows a power light and a link light for every port.

All eight network ports sit at the back, so cables stay out of sight. Power comes from an external adapter that supports 100 to 240V input. That wide input range is helpful where the voltage goes up and down.

Performance in Daily Use

A 4K MAC address table is more than enough for a home or small office. Ports with no connected device power down automatically to save energy. Standby power is listed at about 0.7 watts, so it costs very little to leave on.

The switch is rated for operation from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. Keep it away from direct sun and hot appliances in summer. If some rooms still have weak signal, see our guide on why WiFi gets slow for simple fixes.

Who It's For

Homes With Fast Fibre Internet

If your ISP gives you more than 100 Mbps, this switch keeps that speed on wired devices. Connect a smart TV, desktop PC and game console without losing speed. Our guide to ONU types explains how fibre reaches your home.

Gamers and Streamers

Online games and live streams need a steady, low delay connection. A wired Gigabit link avoids the drops that Wi-Fi can cause. QoS also helps keep game traffic moving when others use the network.

Small Offices and Home Studios

Offices often move large files between PCs and a shared drive. Gigabit ports make these transfers much faster than 10/100 ports. Designers, video editors and accountants with big backups save real time every day.

Simple Buying Guide

Check Your Router Ports

Look at the LAN ports on your router or ONU. If they are Gigabit, this switch will pass that speed to your devices. If they are 10/100, the uplink to the router will stay at 100 Mbps.

Use the Right Cables

Gigabit speed needs Cat5e or better cable on every run. Old Cat5 cables may limit the link to 100 Mbps. Replace damaged or very old cables before blaming the switch or your ISP.

Pick a Good Router Too

A switch only shares the speed your router gives it. A strong dual band router still matters for phones and laptops. See our best home WiFi router guide for ideas.

Easy Steps to Check Before You Order

First, count your wired devices and make sure seven free ports are enough after the router uplink. Add one or two spare ports for later.

Next, check that your router or ONU has Gigabit LAN ports, so you get the full Gigabit benefit at home.

Then, check your cables are Cat5e or Cat6, and replace any that are old or damaged.

Last, choose a cool, shaded spot near a power socket for the switch and its adapter, away from water.
