Switch de red Wago 852-112 — 8 puertos Fast Ethernet (10/100), RJ-45, dúplex completo, 2000 entradas MAC

Wago 852-112 is an unmanaged 8-port Fast Ethernet switch (10/100) with RJ-45 connectors supporting full-duplex operation. It delivers basic switching for small industrial or office networks, provides a 2000-entry MAC address table and complies with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u and 802.3x standards. The unit enables easy upgrading of older 10 Mbps segments to 100 Mbps and can be used to segment traffic to reduce congestion and assign dedicated bandwidth to individual nodes.

Advantages

The switch offers simple plug-and-play deployment without management overhead, Auto-negotiation on each port and Auto MDI/MDI-X detection to simplify cabling. With eight 10/100 Mbps ports and support for full duplex it provides cost-effective wired connectivity for multiple Ethernet devices while the 2000-entry MAC table helps with basic traffic forwarding in small networks.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This unmanaged switch does not provide advanced management features such as VLAN configuration, QoS tuning, SNMP monitoring or port mirroring. It is not intended for large enterprise networks that require routed interfaces, advanced security controls or high port densities.

Environments that need Gigabit throughput, managed switching functions, or carrier-grade redundancy should consider a managed or higher-performance alternative.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect the switch to your network by plugging Ethernet cables into the RJ-45 ports. Devices will auto-negotiate link speed and duplex; no configuration is required for basic operation. Place the switch in a ventilated area with appropriate industrial or office mounting as specified by your installation guidelines. Use the switch to aggregate devices or to create separate collision domains for improved performance compared with hub-based setups.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For best results, use Cat5e or better cabling, avoid placing the switch in cramped or poorly ventilated locations, and plan device placement so that bandwidth-sensitive devices are distributed across ports to reduce potential congestion. For networks requiring monitoring or VLAN segmentation, choose a managed switch instead.
