You've outgrown the little 8-port switch. Sixteen devices need gigabit and you don't want to open a management console to make it happen. The TL-SG1016D is sixteen 10/100/1000Mbps ports in a box that sits on a desk or drops into a rack. Plug in your cables, power it up, transfer files at full gigabit speed.
Every port does auto MDI/MDIX and auto-negotiation, so you don't need to worry whether you've got a straight-through or crossover cable in your hand. Just plug it in. The energy-efficient mode trims power draw by up to 15% when ports are idle, and 80% of the packaging material is recyclable.
No PoE here. This is a pure data switch for when you need sixteen gigabit lanes and nothing more
