High-Speed Gigabit Performance
With 10 Gbps switching fabric capacity and support for Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps, the DGS-105 is ideal for bandwidth-intensive tasks like 4K video streaming, large file transfers, online gaming, and multimedia production. Each port supports full-duplex communication, enabling simultaneous upload and download at up to 2 Gbps per port. The switch is backward compatible with 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet devices, ensuring seamless integration with legacy equipment.
Intelligent Traffic Management
The DGS-105 features IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS), which prioritizes time-sensitive network traffic to ensure smooth performance for voice, video, and gaming applications. IGMP snooping optimizes multicast video streams for IPTV and 4K/8K video distribution, preventing network flooding and maximizing efficiency. Jumbo frame support (up to 9 KB) boosts throughput for large backups and file transfers between NAS devices and workstations.
Energy-Saving Green Ethernet Technology
Designed with sustainability in mind, the DGS-105 supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which automatically reduces power consumption when ports are idle or when connected devices are shut down. The switch also intelligently adjusts power output based on detected cable length, cutting energy usage by up to 80%. Compliant with Energy Star Level V, CEC, and MEPS regulations, this eco-friendly switch helps reduce operating costs and environmental impact.
Durable Metal Construction
The sturdy metal housing provides superior heat dissipation and protects internal components, ensuring reliable operation in a wide range of environments. With an operating temperature range of 0°C to 40°C and built-in surge and ESD protection (±4 kV), the DGS-105 is built to last. The fanless design eliminates noise and moving parts, extending product lifespan while maintaining silent operation.
