10/100Mbps Unmanaged Switch
DES-1005D
DES-1005D switch provides 5 auto-sensing 
10/100Mbps ports in a palm-sized box. The 
switch allows mix and match of Ethernet and 
Fast Ethernet in full- and half-duplex modes.
5-Port 10/100Mbps Switch for SOHO
The DES-1005D is an unmanaged 10/100Mbps switch designed to enhance small workgroup performance while 
providing a high level of flexibility. Powerful yet easy to use, this device allows users to simply plug any port to 
either a 10Mbps or 100Mbps network to multiply bandwidths, boost response time and satisfy heavy load 
demands.
5 Auto-sensing 10/100Mbps Ports
The switch comes with 5 10/100Mbps ports, allowing a 
small workgroup to flexibly connect to Ethernet ad Fast 
Ethernet and integrate. These intelligent ports detect the 
network speed and auto-negotiate between 100BASE-TX 
and 10BASE-T, as well as between full- and half-duplex.
Flow Control for Secure Transmission
All ports support 802.3x flow control. This function 
minimizes dropped packets by sending out collision 
signals when the port's receiving buffer is full. Flow 
control is available in the full-duplex mode.
Auto-negotiation of MDI/MDIX Cross Over
All ports support auto-negotiation of MDI/MDIX cross 
over. This eliminates the need for cross over cables or 
uplink ports. Any port can simply plug to a server, a hub or 
a switch, using the usual straight-through twisted-pair 
cable.
SOHO Plug-and-Play
With 5 plug-and-play ports, the switch is a perfect choice 
for the small workgroup to upgrade performance in a 
client/server environment. The ports can be connected to 
servers in full-duplex, or hubs in half-duplex.
Desktop Power
With low-cost connection per-port, the switch can also be 
set up for direct connection from the PCs. This relieves 
data bottleneck by giving each workstation a dedicated 
bandwidth on the network. 
10/100Mbps Network Kit
For network starters, a convenient kit is available for 
ready installation. This kit includes a DES-1005D switch, 
2 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet PCI cards, and 2 6-meter 
(20-foot) UTP cables.
