DrayTek VigorSwitch G1080 - 8 Port Gigabit Smart Managed Switch

The VigorSwitch G1080 delivers high-performance gigabit networking for small and medium business environments. This compact smart managed switch provides eight gigabit ports with advanced management features including VLANs, Quality of Service, and Link Aggregation for bandwidth-intensive applications.

Ultra-Low Power Consumption with Flexible Powering Options

Consuming under 1A even at full load, the G1080 operates as an energy-efficient solution for network expansion. Power the switch using the included AC/DC adapter or connect via USB to a PC or compatible DrayTek Vigor router - ideal when power sockets are limited or for compact installations.

Flexible Management Options

Manage the VigorSwitch G1080 directly through its web interface for standalone operation, or integrate it with compatible Vigor routers for centralized management. DrayTek Central Switch Management enables remote monitoring and provisioning of multiple VigorSwitches through your router's web interface, accessible locally or across the Internet.

Network Segmentation with VLAN Support

Implement IEEE 802.1q VLANs for network segmentation using both Tag-based and Port-based configurations. Tag-based VLANs allow multiple subnets to pass through a single network link, with different ports assigned to each VLAN. Port-based VLANs configure the switch as separate isolated networks, providing complete segmentation between port groups.

Traffic Prioritization with Quality of Service

The G1080 supports 802.1p CoS (Class of Service) and Port-based QoS modes to prioritize latency-sensitive traffic. VoIP applications, video conferencing software, and IP handsets can be prioritized over general data transfers using the switch's four flexible queues and scheduling system, ensuring consistent call quality and real-time application performance.

Bandwidth Control and Rate Limiting

Configure ingress and egress bandwidth limits on each port with granular control from 512 Kbps up to 512 Mbps or unlimited. This allows precise management of network resources and prevents individual ports from consuming excessive bandwidth.

IGMP Snooping for Multicast Efficiency

With IGMP Snooping enabled, the switch intelligently directs multicast streams like IP-TV only to ports that have requested them, rather than flooding all ports. This reduces unnecessary network traffic and improves overall performance.

Link Aggregation for Increased Bandwidth

Connect the G1080 to larger network switches using Link Aggregation (Port Trunking) to combine multiple gigabit links. Two 1 Gbps connections can effectively double uplink bandwidth while providing redundancy if one link fails.
