Ideal for small or growing networks requiring reliable and affordable performance, V7 8-Port and 5-Port Unmanaged 10/100/1000 Ethernet and Gigabit Networking Switches allow small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) and home users to connect multiple computers as well as cameras, print and media servers, storage devices, VoIP phones and more to an Ethernet or wireless LAN without creating network bottlenecks.

Available with an option of two speeds (fast Ethernet or Gigabit), the V7 line is easy to install and use, standards-based and fully compatible with existing 10/100 and 10/100/1000 network infrastructure.

“Our new line of reliable and affordable switches takes expanding networks to the next level in connectivity speed and efficiency,” said Rainer Kozlik, vice president and general manager of Ingram Micro’s Global V7 Private Label Group. “For a low price, our switches can serve as the network backbone for sharing e-mail, printers, files, multiplayer games, hard drives and more, creating significant value for VARs and customers alike.”

With prices starting well below top-name brands, the unmanaged five-port and eight-port Ethernet switches are offered at $24.99 (model # NS0132-N6) and $49.99 (model # NS0142-N6) suggested retail price (SRP) respectively.  The Gigabit five-port and eight-port unmanaged switches are available at $59.99 (model # NS1132-N6) and $79.99 (model # NS1142-N6) SRP respectively.
