D-Link DES-1005C 5-Port Fast Ethernet Unmanaged Desktop Switch, Compact Fanless Design, D-Link Green Technology

Expand your local area network with ease using the D-Link DES-1005C 5-Port Fast Ethernet Switch. Engineered for reliability and simplicity, this unmanaged switch is a "Live" status product designed to provide steady connectivity for your essential devices. Whether you are setting up a small home office or adding more ports to a gaming setup, the DES-1005C offers a stable 1 Gbps switching capacity in a footprint smaller than a smartphone.

Key Features

• High-Speed Connectivity: With five 100Base-TX ports, you get dedicated high-speed access for every connected device. The Auto MDI/MDIX support eliminates the need for crossover cables, allowing for a seamless "plug-and-play" installation.

  D-Link Green Technology: This switch is built with energy efficiency in mind. It supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and features a Power Saving mode that detects link status, significantly reducing power consumption when ports are idle.

• Silent & Durable Design: The fanless design ensures the DES-1005C operates in total silence, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments like libraries or bedrooms. With an impressive MTBF of over 1.7 million hours, it is built to provide years of uninterrupted service.
• Intelligent Data Handling: Utilizing the Store-and-Forward switching scheme, the device minimizes error packets and ensures data integrity. It also includes 802.3x Flow Control and Head-of-Line (HOL) Blocking Prevention to maintain smooth traffic flow even during peak usage.

• Compact & Lightweight: Measuring just 88 x 48 x 21.45mm, this switch is designed for convenient placement. It can easily be tucked away behind a desk or mounted in tight spaces without cluttering your workspace.

   

   

Why This Product Stands Out The D-Link DES-1005C is a budget-friendly workhorse. It consumes a maximum of only 0.784 Watts, making it one of the most eco-friendly switches in its class. For users who need reliable, basic networking without the cost or complexity of a managed solution, the DES-1005C remains a top-tier choice for its longevity and ease of use.
