This switch is compact and economical and can easily be monitored.

  • Compatibility The NETGEAR ProSafe 5-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch enables you to connect 10-100 and 1000-megabit-per-second devices to your computer network. It is compatible with Windows and Macintosh, and thanks to its plug-and-play technology, it starts working as soon as you connect it to your network.
  • Speed and Performance This switch transmits data between your devices and your server at lightning-fast speeds that can reach ten times the speed of Fast Ethernet devices. You can easily monitor the speed at which your switch is operating, as well as the status of your links and other activity, with the device's dual-color LEDs.
  • Advanced Features The Auto Uplink feature of the NETGEAR ProSafe 5-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch adjusts settings automatically for two different types of commonly available network cables. The switch features fully automatic switching, so it operates seamlessly in the background while you and your staff enjoy access to all of your network devices.
  • Compact and Convenient This switch features a compact metal case that you can easily place on any desk or mount on your wall. It includes one port to connect to your network and four ports for connecting equipment. You may find a larger eight-port switch, such as the NETGEAR ProSafe 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch, useful if you have a larger network with more devices to connect.

    This unit does what it should reliably, easily and sits in place quietly doing it's job. It would be great if they had this unit with 8 ports at the same price but this works fine as it.
    Note to those wanting to use 1000 MB (1 Gig) there is another version of this unit that does that but be aware that the cable quality and length are factors in getting it to run reliably if at all.

      Comments about NETGEAR ProSAFE 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch GS105NA:

      Although it's rated at 1GB, I've never seen throughput that even approaches that speed. It's still small and fast and easily concealed, which were my main requirements. Just slap it in place, plug in the power and ethernet cables, and ignore it for the next half a dozen years. I have three of these around the house, in various node clusters, serving computers, televisions, game consoles, VOIP phones, and even a Raspberry Pi. Yes, I said "serving a Raspberry Pi"! I love these little guys, and I have nothing negative to say about them.

            this product was extremely easy to install. It was just a plug it in to main ethernet and then you can split off a network printer and a couple of PC's and even a camera. Good value nice product.

              Comments about NETGEAR ProSAFE 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch GS105NA:

              Netgear is famous for their solid design and reliability, and this switch is no exception. I've got a couple of servers with Gigabit connected to the rest of my network through this switch. No brainer.

              OK, some Ethernet education from a network guy: Be aware that a switch is NOT THE SAME AS A ROUTER. You cannot usually replace a router with a switch. [Think of an Ethernet switch as an extension cord for your network. It allows you to make your network a little longer, and it gives you a few extra ports.] But a switch will not filter your traffic. A switch will not act as a protected gateway between your network and the Internet. Only use a switch completely inside your own network.
