TP-Link TL-SG105-M2 | 5 Port Multi-Gigabit Unmanaged Network Switch, Ethernet Splitter | 2.5G Bandwidth | Plug & Play | Desktop/Wall-Mount | Fanless Metal Design | Limited Lifetime Protection

Product Information

NOTE: Besides the included Installation Guide, a 2-sided paper guide with instructions and images, you should Stars for TP-Link Easy Smart switch’s plug and play set-up, ease of use by its intended user-gamers, sturdy Computer with Windows 8/7/Vista/XP, Mac OS or Linux operating system (No issues using Windows 10 Pro) To be clear I did nothing with the provided software to be able to hook up the box and use it. I did need to open Managed or Unmanaged: If you just need to get wired internet access to a few devices, then you’ll want an unmanaged network switch, which we recommend for most users. This doesn’t mean the switch has no features -- unmanaged switches can often do plenty of fancy things, from traffic prioritizing QoS to loop detection.

in the next room. (The entire length from the router to the switch should be less than 328 feet). That's one port faster speeds refer to the speeds compared to standard 1G ports. The actual speeds may vary due to cable quality and type, client limitations, and environmental factors. Along with its 8-port sibling - the TL-SG108-M2 - the TL-SG105-M2 is low-profile, easy to set up, and features a fanless design and metal enclosure that will keep it as quiet as it is fast. And because it’s a 2.5 GbE switch, you might not need to buy new cabling; as long as you’re already using Cat 5e cabling in your network, you’re good to take advantage of the 802.3bz network protocol, which promises 2.5 GbE or 5 GbE connections over 100 meters of cable. In testing, this bore out, with super fast file transfers that didn’t even blink when we loaded the network down with as much traffic as we could muster. The switch ran a little warm though, topping out at about 115 degrees Fahrenheit.Maximale draadloze signaalfrequentie op basis van specificaties van de IEEE 802.11-standaard. De vermelde draadloze snelheden zijn de maximale theoretische gegevenssnelheden. De werkelijke draadloze gegevensdoorvoer en het draadloos bereik kunnen niet gegarandeerd worden en variëren op basis van 1) omgevingsfactoren, met inbegrip van bouwmaterialen, fysieke objecten en obstakels, 2) netwerkomstandigheden, met inbegrip van lokale interferentie, omvang en dichtheid van het verkeer, locatie van het product, complexiteit van het netwerk en overhead, en 3) clientbeperkingen, met inbegrip van nominaal vermogen, locatie, verbinding, kwaliteit en toestand van de client. The one notable omission from this network switch is loop detection, which prevents your network being slowed to a crawl or disabled entirely by looped network traffic. This can be a very important troubleshooting tool in a complicated network, with visual indicators on a switch that tell you which Ethernet ports to investigate for issues.

De werkelijke snelheden kunnen variëren op basis van het type en de kwaliteit van de kabel, beperkingen van de client en omgevingsfactoren. and I have heard of no problems so far. Well, except for a tangle of Ethernet cables. Watch your step in the living Of course, you needn’t have a connection that fast to get use out of one of the recent 2.5 GbE network switches. File transfers, home media servers, and high-capacity, high-bandwidth NAS setups can all stand to benefit from a high-bandwidth switch, and as they come out, we’ll try to put our hands to the latest and greatest to let you know how they fare. That brings us, today, to the TP-Link TL-SG105-M2: a super fast unmanaged 5-port, 2.5 GbE switch that, while bigger than your average 5-port gigabit switches, should still fit into just about anyone’s setup - and budget, for that matter. Upgraded my home Internet to 2 gigabit fiber, and home fileserver with SSD storage, so I bought the TP-Link 8-port TL-SG108-M2 and 5-port TL-SG105-M2 to upgrade my home network to multi-gigabit speed. It was easy to swap my old gigabit switches with these TP-Link 2.5 giggers, using my existing ethernet cables. Number of Ports: You can get anywhere from four all the way up to 48 or more Ethernet ports. Some also have USB ports.When you set up the switch box you use one of the 8 ports to take the Ethernet cable from the router and use I was able to run an Ethernet cable from one room, from the cable router, and set the switch box under my TV The software, after installation, provides you with the ‘Discovered Switches’ interface with the headings: Product,
