Five-Port Fast Ethernet Switch

The Brainboxes SW-005 is an unmanaged network switch with five 10/100Base-TX ports. It learns connected device addresses and forwards packets only to the required port, allowing simultaneous communication. The metal chassis is wall-mountable and weighs 0.6 kg. It suits small offices or home networks needing basic wired connectivity.

Ideal for Simple Wired Networks

This switch fits users who need to connect up to five Ethernet devices without configuration. It requires no management software and operates on standard TCP/IP traffic. Buyers who need Gigabit speeds, uplink ports, VLAN support, or Power over Ethernet should look at other models.

Handles Five 10/100 Devices

The five ports comfortably handle typical desktop, printer, and access-point connections at Fast Ethernet rates. Bandwidth runs out when multiple devices transfer large files simultaneously or when the network backbone exceeds 100 Mbps. For higher throughput, a Gigabit switch is required.
