Netgear GS105E-200NAS

Product Overview

The NETGEAR GS105E is a 5-port Gigabit Ethernet Plus managed switch built for commercial AV environments that need more than plug-and-play connectivity. It adds VLAN segmentation, QoS traffic prioritization, and IGMP snooping in a compact, fanless desktop chassis. The metal enclosure runs silently, making it well suited to conference rooms, huddle spaces, and AV racks where noise matters. It delivers a 10 Gbps non-blocking switching fabric across all five Gigabit copper ports.

Product Description

The GS105E 5-port Gigabit Plus switch is designed for AV integrators who want simple, web-managed control over a small network segment without the complexity or cost of a fully managed switch. Configuration is handled through a browser-based GUI or the NETGEAR PC utility, letting you set up port-based and 802.1Q VLANs to separate AV control traffic from data, video, and voice. The switch supports 802.1p and DSCP-based QoS so latency-sensitive streams such as audio over IP and IP video are prioritized correctly. With support for up to 64 VLANs and IGMP snooping v1, v2, and v3, it keeps multicast video traffic contained to the ports that need it.

Housed in a durable metal case at just 94 x 100 x 27 mm, the GS105E fits neatly behind a display, inside a credenza, or on a wall using the included mounting kit. Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) reduces power draw during low activity, and the fanless design ensures completely silent operation.

The GS105E is backed by a NETGEAR limited lifetime hardware warranty with lifetime chat support and next-business-day replacement.

Key Features

• Five Gigabit Plus Ports — Five 10/100/1000 copper ports deliver a non-blocking 10 Gbps switching fabric for reliable wired performance.
• VLAN Segmentation — Port-based and 802.1Q VLANs (up to 64) let you isolate AV control, video, and data traffic on one switch.
• QoS Traffic Prioritization — IEEE 802.1p and DSCP-based QoS prioritize voice and video so time-sensitive AV streams stay clean.
• IGMP Snooping — IGMP snooping v1, v2, and v3 directs multicast video only to ports that request it, reducing unnecessary flooding.
• Fanless Silent Design — Zero acoustic noise makes the switch suitable for conference rooms and other quiet AV spaces.
• Flexible Web Management — A browser-based GUI and PC utility provide cable test, loop detection, port mirroring, and DoS prevention.
• Energy Efficient Ethernet — IEEE 802.3az support lowers power consumption during periods of light or no traffic.
• Limited Lifetime Warranty — Backed by a NETGEAR limited lifetime hardware warranty with lifetime chat support and NBD replacement.
