  • Page 7: Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

    D-Link DGS-1016A/DGS-1024A GIGABIT DESKTOP SWITCH Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic components, such as the microprocessor. You can do so by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
  • Page 8: Introduction

    SOHO or small office customers. Switch Description The 16-port DGS-1016A and 24-port DGS-1024A Switches provide dedicated 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps Ethernet bandwidth on each port. The ports will automatically detect the speed, duplex and MDI/MDIX status of the device it is connecting to, and adjust these settings accordingly.
