ProSAFE® 5-port and 8-port Gigabit Switches Data Sheet
GS105 and GS108
Instant Connectivity with Reliable Performance
The NETGEAR® ProSAFE® Gigabit Unmanaged Switch series helps businesses
cost-eectively expand their network to Gigabit speeds and higher port counts.
The GS105 and GS108 Gigabit Ethernet switches come with 5 and 8 Gigabit
copper ports in a desktop metal case and is wall-mountable. These switches
are energy ecient, built to last, and rigorously tested to provide the reliability
businesses need. 802.1p trac prioritization and jumbo frame support allow for
GS105v5/GS10 8v4
Highlights
seamless integration with more sophisticated networks.
Plug and Play
• The standards-based ProSAFE Gigabit
switches senses and adjusts for network
speed and cabling type automatically.
Easily integrates into your existing Ethernet
network - no matter if it is running
at 10/100Mbps or Gigabit speed
• Simple set up with no soware or
conguration needed
• Front panel LEDs keep you informed of
power status, link speed and link activities
Trac Prioritization
• Prioritize mission-critical applications such
as voice and video Support IEEE 802.1 p and
DSCP-based QoS for delivering data based
on priority and type
High Quality and Reliable Performance
• Superior network performance at
non-blocking rate delivers true Gigabit
speed with no compromise
• Durable metal case and long product life
(shown by MTBF numbers)
Lifetime Warranty
• Industry’s leading lifetime warranty, not
only on hardware but also include lifetime
online support as well as next-business
day (NBD) replacement support, providing
customers peace-of-mind using NETGEAR
switches in their network.
Energy Ecient
• Both GS105 and GS108 support the
latest Energy Ecient Ethernet (IEEE
802.3az) standard, which reduces energy
consumption when there is light trac on
an active ports or when there is no link or
no activity detected. It can further save
energy when a short cable (<100m) is used.
Energy savings lead directly to cost savings
in operation.
