Key Specifications

• Ports: 24 × 10/100/1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) LAN ports.
• Switching Capacity: 48 Gbps.
• Max Forwarding Rate: 35.712 Mpps (million packets per second)
• Jumbo Frame Support: Up to 9,216 bytes.
• Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE): Supports IEEE 802.3az so it automatically saves power when ports are idle or cable lengths are shorter.
• Auto-MDI/MDIX: Yes — no need for crossover cables, works with standard Ethernet cables.
• LED Indicators: Each port has LEDs for link/activity/speed status to help you see what’s connected and active.
• Fanless/Quiet Design: Runs quietly since there’s no internal fan.
• Dimensions: 282.2 × 178 × 44.5 mm (11.11 × 7.01 × 1.75 in)
• Weight: Approximately 1.14 kg
• Power Input / Consumption: AC 100–240 V. Standby power around 6.5 W, maximum around 13.5 W.

Features & Benefits

• 24 high-speed Gigabit ports allow you to connect multiple devices at full 1000 Mbps speeds, making them excellent for data-heavy applications.
• Plug-and-Play with simplicity – No installation, no program, and no configuration. Simply put in the cords and you’ll be up and running.
• Energy-saving intelligence – The switch recognizes idle devices or short wire lengths and automatically cuts power consumption.
• Automatic cable detection (Auto-MDI/MDIX) Works seamlessly with both straight and crossover cables.
• Reliable performance – With store-and-forward switching and IEEE 802.3x flow management, you will see fewer missed packets even while under stress.
• Quiet and compact – Fanless design means minimal noise, making it ideal for use in the office or at home.
• Clear status indications – An LED per port allows you to immediately spot link faults and monitor activity.
• Ready for growth – Ideal for expanding your network as your needs increase, without bottlenecking at slower ports.

Ideal Use-Cases / Where to Use It

• Home office / SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) – If you’re connecting multiple PCs, NAS, printers, IP cameras, then this switch gives you wired stability.
• Small to medium business (SMB) networks – For teams and workgroups needing reliable gigabit wired connectivity.
• Media streaming & online gaming setups – Improve speeds for streaming, gaming, and large file transfers. Also, wired connections reduce latency.
• Surveillance/IP camera systems – Plug in multiple cameras and network video recorders with consistent bandwidth.
• Network closet or server room access switch – Use this as an access layer switch that connects servers, storage devices, and uplinks to higher-level switches.

Why You Need It

D-Link DGS-F1024 is one of the smartest way to upgrade network. So, no need to rely on older 100 Mbps switches or you’re running out of ports, simply switch your network today. It gives you plenty of gigabit ports so you’re future-proofed for faster devices and heavier traffic. Because it’s unmanaged, there’s no complex configuration — which means less time fiddling, more time working. The energy-saving features help keep operational costs down and the quiet operation makes it suitable for any office or home environment. For anyone looking to expand their network simply, cleanly and reliably — this switch is exactly what you need.
