What this 5-port Gigabit switch does

The Netgear ProSafe GS105NA adds five 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports to an existing wired network. It operates as an unmanaged Layer 2 switch with a 2K MAC address table and store-and-forward switching. Plug-and-play installation requires no software or configuration, making it suited for small offices or home offices that need instant gigabit expansion.

Check cabling and power before ordering

Each port auto-negotiates speed and duplex, so existing Cat5e or better cables will deliver up to 2000 Mbps full-duplex throughput. The unit supports IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet and draws power from an external adapter; verify you have a free mains socket near the intended desktop or wall-mount location. No PoE, stacking, SNMP or management features are present, so ensure those are not required.

Behaviour under sustained load

The 128 KB packet buffer and store-and-forward method maintain consistent frame integrity during continuous traffic. IEEE 802.1p and DSCP-based QoS prioritise latency-sensitive streams such as voice and video when the network is busy. Jumbo frame support reduces per-packet overhead for large transfers, while the metal enclosure passively dissipates heat without fan noise during prolonged operation.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the GS105NA and do I need to buy any cables separately?

The switch includes the metal desktop unit and a power adapter; Ethernet cables are not supplied so you must provide your own Cat5e or better patch leads.

The range also lists 8-port and 16-port models — how do I decide which capacity to choose?

Choose the 5-port GS105NA when you only need to connect a few devices such as a router, PC, printer and access point; step up to 8 or 16 ports if you have more wired endpoints.

The spec says each port delivers up to 2000Mbps — what does that mean for actual throughput on a gigabit link?

2000Mbps is the full-duplex total; a single gigabit connection moves data at 1000Mbps in one direction at a time.
