DGS-105/108
5/8-Port 10/100/1000 Mbps Unmanaged Switch
Features
Fast Connectivity
• Five (DGS-105) or eight (DGS-108) Gigabit LAN
ports for high-speed wired connections
• Plug-and-play installation for convenience
• Cable Diagnostics Function noties users of
cable conditions through product LEDs
Green Ethernet Features
• Reduces power to a port when no link to that
port is detected
• Adjust power to a port by detecting the length
of the connected Ethernet cable
Eco-friendly Design
• Compliant with Energy Star Level V, CEC, and
MEPS regulations
• Compliant with RoHS standards
This 5/8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch is designed for the departmental and enterprise
connection. Powerful and versatile, it eliminates network bottlenecks while giving users the
capability to ne-tune performance. The DGS-105/108 has a special front access design for
Ethernet ports/LEDs to for easier control of network status. Also, the metal case design keeps
cool, allowing for superior performance. Additionally, the DGS-105/108 complies with IEEE
802.3az Energy-Ecient Ethernet (EEE) standards, making it energy ecient without losing
connectivity or functionality.
Integrated Network
The DGS-105/DGS-108 5/8-port Gigabit Switch uses auto-sensing 10/100/1000 Mbps ports,
allowing a small workgroup to exibly connect to Ethernet and Fast Ethernet and Gigabit
devices to create an integrated network. These ports detect the network speed and auto-
negotiate between 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX at full and half-duplex,and 1000BASE-TX at full
duplex, allowing you to get the maximum speed possible for each device connected to your
network.
Simplied Installation
All of the ports on the DGS-105/108 support automatic MDI/MDIX crossover, eliminating the
need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Each port can be plugged directly to a server, hub,
router, or switch using regular straight-through twisted-pair Ethernet cables. In addition,
the DGS-105/108 features multiple front, easy-to-access Ethernet ports with two color LED
indicators per port to easily distinguish link status..
Flow Control for Secure Transmission
When a port reaches its receiving buer capacity, the 802.3x ow control feature activates to
minimize dropped packets, providing a more reliable connection for all of your connected
devices while surng the web, playing games, or accessing media.

Think Green
The DGS-105/108 is a plug-and-play networking switch that uses D-Link’s
Green Technology to save energy and reduce heat, which in turn extends
product life without sacricing performance or functionality. The switch
supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Ecient Ethernet (EEE) which detects when
a connected computer is shut down or when there is no Ethernet trac,
in which the switch will proceed to power down the idle port, saving a
substantial amount of power.
