8-Port 2.5G Desktop Switch

The NETGEAR ProSafe Gsk-IG108 is an unmanaged desktop switch designed for small offices and enthusiasts needing multi-gigabit wired connectivity. It provides eight 2.5G RJ45 ports plus a 10G SFP uplink for high-speed aggregation. The fanless metal chassis ensures silent operation in noise-sensitive environments. Plug-and-play setup requires no configuration.

60Gbps Switching Capacity

The switch delivers a total switching capacity of 60Gbps with a packet forwarding rate of 2500 megabits_per_second. Jumbo frame support up to 9216 bytes allows efficient handling of large data transfers. A 768KB buffer helps absorb traffic bursts during peak loads. These figures determine whether the unit meets your throughput requirements.

Suits 2.5G NAS and WiFi 6 AP Links

Ideal for connecting 2.5G NAS devices, servers, WiFi 6 access points, gaming PCs and PCIe adapters using existing Cat5e or Cat6a cabling. One-key VLAN mode isolates ports 1 through 8 for broadcast control. Buyers needing managed features, PoE power delivery or more than eight multi-gigabit ports should consider other options.

Questions about this item

How fast can each RJ45 port move data once the switch is installed?

Every RJ45 port runs at 2.5 Gbps, so each connected device can push or pull up to 2500 megabits per second in real use.

What does the 10 G SFP uplink cap in practice?

The single SFP+ uplink accepts a 10 Gbps module, limiting total traffic between this switch and the rest of the network to 10 Gbps.

How much rack or desk space does the metal chassis need?

The fanless desktop case is a compact metal enclosure that sits flat on a shelf or bench; no rack ears or brackets are included.
