Features

This unmanaged switch requires no user configuration—just power it on and connect devices. It supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) for reduced power draw during idle periods and provides built-in QoS prioritization for time‑sensitive traffic such as voice or video. With flow-control and auto-MDI/MDI‑X, cabling is simplified. Rated for Gigabit traffic across all eight ports, it handles typical small office workloads—file sharing, light streaming, and VoIP—with minimal latency (~1.8 µs under 1 Gbps load) and solid throughput. The Instant On warranty includes limited lifetime coverage and 24/7 chat support, giving confidence and peace of mind in routine office deployments.

Advanced Options

The Instant On 1430 8G switch delivers dependable performance in compact, low‑maintenance environments. With a switching capacity of 16 Gbps and forwarding rate of approximately 11.9 Mpps, it handles standard Gigabit workloads seamlessly. Jumbo frame support and QoS prioritization enhance performance for large transfers and VoIP/video applications.
