D-Link DES-1005P/E - 5-port Unmanaged Fast Ethernet Power over Ethernet Desktop Switch, Black

The D-Link DES-1005P/E 5-Port Fast Ethernet PoE Desktop Switch expands wired networks without needing configuration. It features five RJ45 ports for 10/100 Mbps data transfer. Plug-and-play operation allows users to connect hardware without setup routines. One port supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), delivering up to 15.4 W over standard network cabling. This allows devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points to function without needing to be near an electrical outlet. The Layer 2 architecture directs traffic between connected devices.

The unit has a black metal chassis and measures 140 x 85 x 28 mm. Its fanless design ensures silent operation for home or office use. LED indicators show link status and power. Power is supplied via a DC-in jack, keeping the transformer separate from the internal circuitry. The hardware has a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 324,616 hours. The unit is designed for use on flat surfaces and cannot be rack-mounted.

• Auto-MDI/MDIX on every port removes the need for crossover cables when connecting network hardware.
• IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) prioritises data queues for latency-sensitive applications.
• IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet automatically scales power consumption based on link status and cable length.
• A 2000-entry MAC address table manages traffic across connected devices.
• Integrated IEEE 802.3x flow control prevents dropped packets during heavy data loads to maintain consistent transmission rates.
