Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key specifications of the NETGEAR GS105NA switch?
The NETGEAR GS105NA is a 5-port unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switch with a 10 Gbps switching fabric. It supports IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet, IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet, and IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standards, delivering up to 2000 Mbps full duplex data transfer rates on Gigabit connections. The switch is plug-and-play and requires no configuration, making it ideal for warehouse and logistics environments needing reliable network expansion.
Does the GS105NA support energy-efficient operation?
Yes, the GS105NA supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) technology, which automatically powers down idle ports when computers are shut down or when there is no Ethernet traffic. The switch also detects cable length and uses only the necessary power, significantly reducing power consumption and heat dissipation while extending product life and lowering operational costs.
What quality-of-service features does the NETGEAR GS105NA offer?
The GS105NA includes IEEE 802.1p QoS (Quality of Service) capabilities with 2 queues in both strict mode and WRR (Weighted Round Robin) mode. This allows prioritization of network traffic to ensure critical warehouse and logistics data receives priority bandwidth over less time-sensitive communications.
What are the operating and storage temperature ranges for the GS105NA?
The NETGEAR GS105NA operates reliably in temperatures from 32 to 122°F (0 to 50°C) and can be stored in temperatures ranging from 14 to 158°F (-10 to 70°C). Operating humidity is maintained at 10% to 90% RH non-condensing, making it suitable for standard warehouse and indoor logistics facility environments.
What is the physical size and weight of the GS105NA?
The NETGEAR GS105NA measures 3.9 x 3.8 x 1.1 inches (100 x 98 x 28 mm) and weighs 9.35 ounces (265 grams). Its compact form factor makes it easy to deploy in tight spaces within warehouse racks, server closets, or logistics facility network installations.
Is the GS105NA suitable for high-packet-rate environments?
Yes, the GS105NA handles 14,880 packets per second (pps) per port at Gigabit speeds and supports jumbo frames up to 2047 bytes, making it capable of managing demanding warehouse automation and logistics network traffic. With a 384 KByte RAM buffer per device and flow control via IEEE 802.3x, the switch maintains reliable performance under sustained data loads.
