Advanced Features:

Energy-Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az):

The LS105G intelligently reduces power consumption by automatically adjusting energy usage based on link status and cable length. Ports connected to shorter cables or idle devices consume less power, helping to lower your overall energy footprint and reduce operational costs without compromising network performance.

Silent Fanless Operation:

Designed without any fans, the LS105G operates completely silently. This makes it ideal for noise-sensitive environments such as home offices, studios, or quiet workspaces where minimal disruption is important. The fanless design also reduces mechanical wear, contributing to longer device lifespan.

Robust Metal Housing:

The durable metal chassis not only provides excellent protection against physical impacts but also enhances heat dissipation to maintain stable performance under continuous use. This rugged design ensures reliability and longevity in a variety of installation environments.

Compact, Space-Saving Form Factor:

Measuring just under 10 cm in width and depth, this switch easily fits on crowded desktops or can be discreetly wall-mounted to save valuable workspace. Its lightweight design and flexible mounting options make deployment simple in both new and existing network setups.

Plug-and-Play Convenience:

With no software or configuration required, the LS105G allows users to quickly and easily expand wired networks. Simply connect your Ethernet cables and power adapter to start enjoying gigabit-speed connectivity instantly—ideal for users without technical networking expertise.

Jumbo Frame Support (up to 16 KB):

Supporting jumbo frames allows the switch to handle larger Ethernet frames than standard sizes, which reduces CPU overhead and improves throughput for applications requiring the transfer of large files, such as video editing, backups, or media streaming.

Store-and-Forward Switching:

This switching method ensures that packets are fully received and checked for errors before forwarding, improving data integrity and reducing the chance of corrupted packets propagating through the network. It helps maintain high reliability for all connected devices.

Auto-Negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX:

Ports automatically adjust speed and duplex mode to match connected devices, ensuring optimal communication without manual setup. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables, simplifying network cabling and installation.

IEEE 802.3x Flow Control and Backpressure:

Flow control mechanisms prevent packet loss during high traffic by regulating data flow between devices, supporting stable and efficient network operation even under heavy load.
