D-Link DGS-105GL/E netwerkswitch Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) zwart

The D-Link DGS-105GL/E is a 5-port unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switch that provides up to 1000 Mbps connectivity for home or small office networks. The compact black metal housing and fanless design offer silent, durable operation while supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation and IEEE networking standards for reliable wired connections.

Advantages

The switch delivers Gigabit throughput on each port for fast file transfers and improved sharing across multiple devices. Built-in 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) helps prioritise time-sensitive traffic such as 4K video streaming, voice and video calls. Energy-efficient design with IEEE 802.3az support and automatic port power reduction minimises power consumption. Its plug-and-play, unmanaged operation requires no configuration, and the sturdy metal chassis increases durability and heat dissipation for longer service life.

Suitable for

• Expanding wired networks in small offices and homes
• High-bandwidth tasks such as 4K video streaming and large file transfers
• Connecting multiple devices for shared internet, storage, or media
• Silent environments where fanless operation is required

How to use

Connect the DGS-105GL/E to your router or existing network using a standard Ethernet cable, then plug devices into the remaining Gigabit ports. The switch is plug-and-play and requires no configuration; connected devices will auto-negotiate link speed. Place the unit on a flat surface or mount it where the compact metal housing can dissipate heat. Ensure cables are securely connected and your router or modem provides network services to connected clients.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, connect high-bandwidth devices (NAS, media players, or workstations) to the switch’s Gigabit ports and enable QoS on upstream equipment if available. Keep the switch in a ventilated location to aid passive cooling and reduce exposure to dust or moisture. Use Cat5e or better cables to achieve full Gigabit speeds.
