NETGEAR FS105 Fast Ethernet Switch
Introduction
Solid Network Performance for Growing Businesses
NETGEAR’s popular FS100 series desktop switches, known for its reliability and
performance, provide your LAN with high-speed, 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing
connectivity for as many as 5, 8, or 16 users. Just plug in your Ethernet
cables, connect a power cord, and you’re ready to go-there’s no software to
configure. They negotiate to the fastest possible connection and with Auto
Uplink™ technology, these switches automatically figure out if the link needs
a straight-through or cross-over connection, and makes the right choice.
Existing 10BASE-T devices are easily integrated within higher bandwidth
environments, with full wire speeds on all ports
of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps. Engineered without the need for internal fans,
they operate silently. And each of these very compact switches is housed in a
sturdy metal case for years
of dependable use. When you want solid network performance for your growing
business, plus the added benefit of quiet operation, NETGEAR’s ProSafe FS105,
FS108, and FS116 are your best choices for quality, convenience, and smooth —
running usability — all at very affordable prices.
Highlight
-
At Your Service
Five, eight, or sixteen ports provide LAN access for many users. Every port supports up to 200 Mbps in dedicated bandwidth and traffic is forwarded flawlessly with automatic flow control. -
Compact
Solidly built in small sizes that are easy to position when space is at a premium. Ideal for conference rooms, class rooms, study groups or small offices. Place it on any flat surface or use the included wall mount kit to tuck it out of the way. -
Simple To Use
Once you connect the hardware, your switch is operating! Auto negotiation takes care of the speed and duplex, while Auto Uplink takes care of the MDI/MDI-X connection. Eliminate the need for toggle switches or special crossover cables. -
Quiet
No fan means no noise, which helps maintain a peaceful atmosphere in your busy office.
