Five 2.5Gbps ports for multi-gig bandwidth

The TL-SG105-M2 is a 5-port unmanaged desktop switch that delivers 2.5 Gbps per port and up to 25 Gbps of switching capacity. It supports IEEE 802.3bz and auto-negotiates between 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps for broad device compatibility. The fanless metal chassis runs silently and operates from 0 to 40 °C. It is suited for homes or small offices adding 2.5G NAS, WiFi 6 access points or gaming PCs.

Plug-and-play setup with auto-MDI/MDIX

No software or configuration is required; connect the supplied power adapter and Ethernet cables to begin. Auto-MDI/MDIX removes the need for crossover cables and the built-in port LEDs show link and activity per port. The switch accepts existing Cat5e cabling for 2.5G speeds, avoiding a full rewire. Wall-mount slots and rubber feet are included for flexible placement on a desk or wall.

Ideal for quiet 2.5G upgrades without management

This model fits users who need silent, unmanaged 2.5G connectivity for a handful of devices. Buyers who need managed features such as VLANs, QoS or link aggregation should look elsewhere. Environments exceeding 40 °C or requiring rack-mount brackets are not a match. The five-port count also limits larger multi-gig deployments.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the TL-SG105-M2 is operating correctly after connecting devices?

Each of the five RJ45 ports has a built-in Link/Act LED that lights when a valid 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps or 2.5 Gbps link is established and blinks during data activity; the single System Power LED shows the unit is receiving power.

What comes in the box and what must I provide myself?

The package includes the TL-SG105-M2 switch, its power adapter, an installation guide and rubber feet for desktop placement; you supply the Ethernet cables (Cat5e or better) to connect your 2.5G NAS, WiFi 6 access point, PC or other devices.

Which version of this switch should I choose for a small 2.5G network?

The TL-SG105-M2 provides five 2.5 Gbps ports and 25 Gbps total switching capacity; choose it when you need up to five Multi-Gig connections in a fanless metal desktop or wall-mount form factor.
