D-Link DGS-1005D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch
segments (ports). This allows the total network capacity to be multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling
and adapter cards.
For Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet networks, a Switch is an effective way of eliminating problems of chaining hubs
beyond the “two-repeater limit.” A Switch can be used to split parts of the network into different collision domains, for
example, making it possible to expand your Fast Ethernet network beyond the 205-meter network diameter limit for
100BASE-TX networks. Switches supporting both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet are also ideal
for bridging between existing 10Mbps networks and new 100Mbps networks.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation of network bridges, which were
characterized by higher latencies. Routers have also been used to segment local area networks, but the cost of a router and
the setup and maintenance required make routers relatively impractical. Today’s Switches are an ideal solution to most
kinds of local area network congestion problems.
Switch Description
The DGS-1005D Switch is equipped with five ports providing dedicated 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps bandwidth. These ports
can be used for connecting PCs, printers, servers, routers, Switches, hubs, and other network devices. The five multi-speed
ports use standard twisted pair cabling and are ideal for segmenting networks into small, connected subnets. Each port can
support up to 2000 Mbps of throughput in full-duplex mode. This stand-alone Switch enables the network to use some of
the most demanding multimedia and imaging applications concurrently with other user applications without creating
bottlenecks.
Features
The DGS-1005D 5-Port 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Switch was designed for easy installation and high
performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users increase continuously.
