D-Link DGS-105/E - switch, black

The D-Link DGS-105/E 5-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Desktop Switch expands an existing wired network without the need for configuration. As a plug-and-play Layer 2 device, it manages traffic via local MAC address forwarding. It provides five RJ45 ports for connecting devices at Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps. The switch connects directly to a router or upstream device, adding capacity for computers, network storage, and IP cameras. Its 10 Gbit/s switching capacity allows it to handle simultaneous data streams without creating bottlenecks.

Housed in a black metal chassis, the desktop model is built for use in home or office environments. Its fanless design ensures silent operation in noise-sensitive workspaces. Measuring 100 x 98 x 28 mm and weighing 267 g, it fits easily onto crowded desks or small shelves. The hardware has a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,688,340 hours. Power is supplied via a standard 5 V DC-in jack located next to the network ports.

• Auto-MDI/MDIX detection eliminates the need for crossover cables by automatically adjusting to the connected device type.
• A 2000-entry MAC address table provides sufficient capacity to track hardware across local network segments.
• Compliance with IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces power consumption during periods of low data activity.
• Jumbo frame support handles larger payload sizes to improve data transmission efficiency during heavy network transfers.
• IEEE 802.3x flow control regulates data transmission to prevent dropped packets when receiving buffers are full.
• An integrated 0.128 MB packet buffer temporarily stores incoming data to manage sudden bursts of network traffic.
