Unleash True Multi-Gigabit Performance
The DMS-105 delivers 2.5 Gigabit transfer speeds on every port, making it ideal for connecting high-performance devices like 2.5G NAS storage systems, gaming computers with 2.5G network adapters, Wi-Fi 6 access points, and servers. Whether you're rapidly transferring large files between network attached storage and computers, streaming bandwidth-intensive 8K video, enjoying lag-free online gaming, or running IPTV services, the DMS-105 provides the 25Gbps switching capacity you need.
With auto-sensing ports, the switch intelligently detects device speeds and automatically adjusts between 100Mbps, 1 Gigabit, and 2.5 Gigabit connections. Using existing Cat5e or higher cables, you can instantly upgrade to 2.5Gbps without costly rewiring, making network upgrades painless and affordable.
Optimised for Wi-Fi 6 and Gaming
The DMS-105 is the perfect switch for Wi-Fi 6 networks. Connect your Wi-Fi 6 access point to any of the 2.5Gbps ports to maximise wireless throughput and eliminate wired network bottlenecks. Multi-Gigabit Ethernet ensures your network takes full advantage of the efficiency and speeds provided by the latest Wi-Fi 6 standard.
Gamers will appreciate the Quality of Service (QoS) feature that prioritises network traffic into 8 levels based on importance, ensuring time-sensitive gaming data, VoIP calls, and video streams remain smooth even during high network traffic. Flow Control temporarily stops data transmission when the switch buffer is full, minimising dropped packets for stable, reliable connections.
Smart Traffic Management
The DMS-105 includes advanced features for intelligent network management:
-
802.1p Quality of Service (QoS): Classifies traffic into 8 priority levels for efficient delivery of important data
-
IEEE 802.3x Flow Control: Prevents packet loss by managing data flow during high-traffic periods
-
IGMP Snooping: Optimises multicast traffic for seamless video streaming and IPTV viewing
-
Auto MDI/MDIX: Automatic crossover detection eliminates the need for special cables
Energy-Efficient Green Technology
Built with eco-friendly design principles, the DMS-105 features IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which intelligently reduces power consumption during periods of low network activity, lowering your electricity costs and environmental impact. The switch also includes link status detection that automatically powers down ports when no device is connected, and cable length detection that applies only the necessary power for each connection.
The fanless design not only ensures silent operation perfect for home offices and living rooms, but also eliminates a common point of failure, enhancing long-term reliability while reducing heat emissions.
Plug-and-Play Simplicity
The DMS-105 requires no configuration or software installation. Simply connect the power adapter, plug in your devices, and you're ready to go. The compact metal housing features LED indicators on each port for easy monitoring of link status and activity. The versatile design supports both desktop placement and wall-mounting for flexible installation in any environment.
