Compact 5-port Fast Ethernet switch

The D-Link DES-1005E is an unmanaged desktop switch with five RJ45 ports that operate at 10/100 Mbps. It suits home offices or small businesses that need a simple way to connect up to five wired devices such as PCs, printers or network storage. The metal enclosure can sit on a desk or be wall-mounted. No configuration is required.

10/100 Mbps port speed

Every port supports IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards with auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDIX crossover, so straight-through or crossover cables work interchangeably. Full-duplex operation yields up to 200 Mbps per port while the 2K MAC address table and 96 KB buffer handle traffic using store-and-forward switching. IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet reduces power draw when links are idle.

External 5 V power adapter included

The bundle supplies a 5 V 0.55 A DC adapter, so the unit draws only 0.6 W on standby and 3.3 W at maximum load from the DC side. Per-port LEDs show link, activity and speed while a single power LED confirms the adapter is live. Buyers who need Gigabit throughput or managed features such as VLANs or QoS should choose a different model.

Questions about this item

What does the 200 Mbps full-duplex rating mean for a typical home network?

Each of the five RJ45 ports can send and receive simultaneously at up to 200 Mbps, so a file transfer between two connected PCs can run at full Fast Ethernet speed without collisions.

Which IEEE standards limit the practical throughput of this switch?

The switch follows IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX, so maximum wired throughput is capped at 100 Mbps per direction per port.

What are the exact dimensions and mounting options for the DES-1005E?

The unit measures 2.34" x 1.07" x 4.09" and is designed for desktop use or wall mounting with the included slots.
