Product Information

Full details

The NETGEAR ProSafe GS105 is designed for home and small office networks, offering a simple and effective way to expand your network with Gigabit speeds. The key benefit is its plug-and-play setup, requiring no configuration. However, it's an unmanaged switch, meaning it lacks advanced features like VLANs. It provides high-speed connectivity for multiple devices and supports jumbo frames for faster data transfer.
