The useful details
Know what
you’re getting.
D-Link DGS-105 adds 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports to a wired network. Its metal housing and fanless design suit a quiet desk or small office without switch-management software.
Connect computers, printers, storage or another Ethernet device through the RJ45 ports. Automatic speed negotiation and MDI/MDIX simplify cabling, while Energy-Efficient Ethernet reduces power use when links are idle. One port normally provides the connection back to your router or existing switch.
The switch uses its external power adapter and needs no wireless pairing. It carries Ethernet data rather than supplying PoE power, and it does not replace a router, modem or Wi-Fi access point. Link speed depends on the connected device, cabling and network conditions.

Specifications
What’s in the box
DGS-105 switch, external power adapter and setup documentation. Network patch cables and connected devices are separate.
Compatibility
For copper Ethernet equipment supporting 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps over suitable RJ45 cabling. This model does not provide PoE power to connected equipment. Internet access still requires a separate suitable router/modem and service.
Setup and management
Connect the supplied power adapter and Ethernet cables. The switch does not need a driver or a management application for basic Ethernet operation. Check the link LEDs and use a router for DHCP/internet functions where required.
Power and installation
Use the adapter specified on the supplied device label. Place the switch on a stable surface with ventilation clear and avoid moisture. Ethernet port speed is a link rating, not a guarantee of internet throughput.
Hardware revision
D-Link's AU product pages and E1 datasheet publish different physical dimensions. Exact supplied revision dimensions and weight are not claimed here; check the device label and the matching revision document.
Warranty and support
D-Link's Australian product page advertises three-year limited cover. Its support policy requires eligible products to be registered within 90 days for the third year, and lists separate one-year cover for external power adapters. Keep proof of purchase and check model eligibility with D-Link. Australian Consumer Law rights are additional.
