Zyxel GS-108, GS-105 specifications

Dimension GS-105/GS-108

5/8-port 100/1000M
Workgroup Switch

ZyXEL’s GS-105/108 is a 5/8-port 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet switch. It provides high flexibility and high bandwidth

connectivity to servers, workstation and other attached devices.

The GS-105/108 fits users who want higher bandwidth without complicated management features. It can be installed in

SOHO application to establish connections to main servers. GS-105/108 is a cost-effective solution where high-

performance, reliable connections to a desktop are more important than management consideration.

The ease of plug-n-play, outstanding price/performance ratio and flexible design make the GS-105/108 a simple,

affordable choice for a wide range of applications.

Benefits

Gigabit Connections for Media-Rich Applications

The GS-105/108 supports gigabit connections, which

provide ultra high bandwidth for media-rich application

today and years ahead.

Simple-to-Use

The GS-105/108 features auto-sensing 100/1000 Mbps

ports that automatically detect the speed and duplex mode

of attached servers, workstations, or hubs, making

installation quick and easy.

Flow Control for Congestion Prevention

The IEEE 802.3x standard-based flow control allows the

GS-105/108 to prevent pending traffic congestion by

informing the attached devices to stop transmission. When

the switch detects that the buffer for each port is nearly

full, it requests the attached devices to wait until it can

accept new data.

Auto-MDI/MDI-X

With the auto-MDI/MDI-X feature, the GS-105/108

automatically adjusts the transmit/receive pins of a port

based on the signal detected on the wire from the attached

device, making crossover cables a thing of the past.
