Just when you thought Xiaomi was done launching every gadget under the sun, the company surprises us with a couple of new networking switches. Xiaomi has taken the wraps off an 8-port gigabit ethernet switch and a beefier 10-gigabit model, both sporting sleek white bodies and fanless designs.
Xiaomi Gigabit Switch
Xiaomi Gigabit Switch serves up 8 gigabit ethernet ports and offers a total forwarding capacity of 16Gbps. Whether you need to link up computers, servers, TV boxes, game consoles, or printers, this little guy has got you covered for full-house wired chaos.
The gigabit switch is plug-and-play ready and comes packed with the usual networking tricks like store-and-forward, flow control, and congestion prevention to keep those packets flowing smoothly 24/7. No drops, no waiting, just pure high-speed data bliss.
Xiaomi’s gigabit switch rocks a fanless, energy-sipping design that keeps noise levels below a whisper-quiet 19dB even under full load. Your current router probably makes more noise than this thing.
Xiaomi 10-Gigabit Switch: A Turbocharged Network Beast?
If a gigabit just won’t cut it for your LAN party needs, the 10-gigabit switch aims to be your heavy-duty networking hero. Dual 10G SFP+ ports (optical/electrical modules not included) enable blistering multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps, with a total forwarding capacity of 60Gbps.
Alongside the 10G ports, you also get four 2.5G ethernet jacks that can handle multiple speeds from 10Mbps to 2.5Gbps. Whether you need to hook up a 10G optical modem, NAS, router, or just a high-octane gaming rig, this switch is ready to smash through any bandwidth bottlenecks.
Much like its gigabit sibling, the 10G model keeps things whisper-quiet thanks to its fanless cooling system and smartly placed vents. Xiaomi promises under 19dB noise at full tilt too. Impressive stuff.
Both Xiaomi gigabit and 10-gigabit switches are available to purchase in China for the low, low prices of 129RMB (around $22 USD) and 299RMB (roughly $50) respectively. Affordable multi-gig networking gear?
