Reliable unmanaged switch.
The D-Link DES-1016R is a 16-port 10/100Mbps unmanaged rack-mount switch with a 3.2Gbps backplane and 2.4Mpps packet forwarding rate designed for reliable small-office and edge deployments.
The DES-1016R offers 16 10/100Mbps RJ-45 electrical ports supporting auto-negotiation and full-duplex operation for flexible network connectivity.
The DES-1016R delivers a non-blocking backplane bandwidth of 3.2Gbps and a packet forwarding rate up to 2.4 million packets per second (Mpps).
No. The DES-1016R is a fully unmanaged switch offering true plug-and-play deployment without CLI, web GUI, or SNMP configuration.
The metal rack-mount chassis measures 440 × 140 × 44 mm (W×D×H), fits a standard 19-inch equipment rack, and weighs approximately 1.2 kg.
It includes an internal universal AC 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz power supply, eliminating the need for external adapters and ensuring global compatibility.
Yes. The iron-cased, fanless design provides silent operation and minimizes maintenance in office or home environments.
The DES-1016R operates between 0 °C and 40 °C with 10%–90% non-condensing relative humidity, suitable for typical indoor installations.
Mount the switch using the included rack-mount brackets and screws in a standard 19-inch rack, then connect AC power and Ethernet cables for immediate use.
As an unmanaged switch, the DES-1016R does not provide VLAN segmentation or QoS features; traffic is forwarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
This switch is CE, FCC, and RoHS certified, ensuring compliance with international safety, electromagnetic, and environmental standards.
Under full load, the DES-1016R consumes approximately 6 W, making it energy-efficient for small-scale deployments.
Front-panel LEDs display link/activity per port and overall power status, enabling quick visual verification of network connectivity.
No. The DES-1016R does not supply Power over Ethernet; it supports data only on its 10/100Mbps ports.
Ideal for small offices, retail POS, branch offices, or home labs requiring reliable, unmanaged 100Mbps Ethernet connectivity in a rack.
D-Link provides a limited lifetime warranty on the DES-1016R, covering manufacturing defects and hardware failures under normal use.
