I have a DES-1210-08P D-Link Gigabit POE Switch that has 8 ports all POE. It does not have a dedicated LAN Port. How do I Connect this switch to my Router LAN Port?

Just use a regular ethernet cable and connect to any POE/LAN port and connect the other end to your router's LAN port.
POE port will detect that it does not need the power and will function as a regular LAN port. The down side is you'll only have 7 POE ports left.
Hope this helps clarify things.
