Five-Port Gigabit Switch for Small Networks

The NETGEAR ProSafe GS-105B v5 is an unmanaged desktop switch with five RJ45 ports operating at up to 1000 Mbps. It requires zero configuration and suits computers, NAS devices, IP phones and printers in studio or small-office environments. A wall-mount kit is included for flexible placement.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The fanless metal enclosure dissipates heat silently at 0 dBA while IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces idle draw to 0.44 W. Under continuous traffic the switch maintains 10 Gbps switching capacity, 7.4 Mpps forwarding rate and 128 KB packet buffer to keep latency low during large file transfers.

Deciding Specification

Port 5 provides high-priority QoS for VoIP calls while ports 3 and 4 handle medium-priority data, letting voice and data coexist without interruption. Buyers who need managed features, PoE power delivery or more than five ports should choose a different model.

Questions about this item

How much power does the GS-105B v5 draw when idle and does it make any noise?

The switch draws as low as 0.44W at idle and its fanless design produces 0 dBA acoustic noise for silent operation.

What cables and devices do I need to start using the five RJ45 ports?

You need standard Ethernet cables and devices with RJ45 network ports such as computers, NAS, IP phones or printers; the switch is unmanaged so no configuration is required.

Will the 9216-byte jumbo frame support and QoS priority on port 5 work with my older 10/100 Mbps equipment?

Yes, each port auto-negotiates speed so 10/100 Mbps devices connect normally, while jumbo frames and the port-5 high-priority queue remain active for any gigabit-linked device.
