No software, login, or configuration is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use the MS108G to connect IP cameras?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, for cameras that use their own power supply (non-PoE). The MS108G does not supply Power over Ethernet — if you need to power cameras via the network cable, consider a PoE switch such as the TP-Link TL-SG105PE or TL-SG2210MP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the MS108G compatible with my existing router?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The MS108G is a standard unmanaged Gigabit switch compatible with any router, modem, or network device with an Ethernet port, regardless of brand or ISP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Green Ethernet do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen Ethernet automatically detects the cable length and link status of each port and reduces power output accordingly. Ports with shorter cables or no active connection use significantly less power — saving up to 82% compared to standard switches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I stack or daisy-chain multiple MS108G switches?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. You can connect multiple unmanaged switches together to expand your network further. Connect one port on the second switch to a port on the first switch via Ethernet. Note that each additional switch hop adds a small amount of latency.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TP-Link","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43198332764389,"sku":"MS108G","price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/1554\/1221\/files\/mercusys-ms108g-8-port-gigabit-desktop-switch.webp?v=1779514936","url":"https:\/\/cctvguru.com.au\/products\/mercusys-ms108g-8-port-gigabit-desktop-switch","provider":"CCTV Guru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
