Get the blazing speed of Gigabit Network with the D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1005D, an 5port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Switch that delivers power, performance, and reliability in one cost-effective, space-saving design. Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality. Power users in the home, office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Transfer graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files across the network instantly.
Power-Packed
The D-Link DGS-1005D 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch features a non-blocking switching architecture that filters and forwards packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. An 8,000 MAC address table provides scalability for even the largest networks. Address learning and aging, 802.3x Flow Control for full duplex mode, and back pressure flow control for half-duplex mode alleviates traffic congestion and ensures reliable data transmission. Designed using industry standards, it is compatible with virtually all 10, 100, and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices and other vendor equipment. The D-Link DGS-1005D 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch protects your existing network investments while providing you with a straightforward migration path to faster Gigabit speeds.
Easy to Use
The auto features of this gigabit switch make installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is required. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance. It also features diagnostic LEDs which display status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.

News
— D-Link, the worldwide leader in manufacturing of networking, broadband and digital electronic technologies, today announced a new series of desktop Gigabit solutions with the D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1005D 5-Port Switch and the D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1008D 8-Port Switch. These affordable 10/100/1000Mbps switches bring the speed and features normally found in expensive, enterprise-level switching solutions to the desktop for Small Office Home Office (SOHO) and small to medium businesses (SMB). The switches provide businesses with the speed and bandwidth to move large files such as graphics, CGI, CAD or multimedia files to and from file servers at ten times the current networking speed. The D-Link DGS-1005D and the D-Link DGS-1008D are high-speed future-proof solutions to meet the needs of the SOHO and SMB that has limited access to IT support, and needs a budget-conscience, easy-to-use Layer 2 solution.
"These Gigabit switches deliver the performance and bandwidth of our powerful enterprise Gigabit solutions in an affordable desktop solution," said Steven Joe, President of D-Link. "For under $30.00 per port, users can get incredible Gigabit bandwidth designed specifically for small business."
The D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1005D 5-Port Switch and the D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1008D 8-Port Switch feature non-blocking switching architecture that filters forward packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput without sacrificing standard 10/100 connected devices. Integrated 802.3x Flow Control lets both switches run at full duplex mode. The integrated half-duplex backpressure mode alleviates traffic congestion by storing excess data and maintaining its integrity until bandwidth becomes available. The D-Link DGS-1005D and D-Link DGS-1008D are Gigabit over copper networking solutions, allowing data transfer speeds of up to 1000Mbps over existing CAT5 cabling. By providing up to 8,000 MAC address tables, both switch solutions provide a high level of scalability, while simultaneously delivering the hassle-free, plug-and-play configuration that power users, SOHO and small to medium business require to keep networks running at peak efficiency.
Built around existing industry standards, the D-Link DGS-1005D and the D-Link DGS-1008D are compatible with virtually all 10, 100 and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices and equipment, eliminating the need to replace an entire network to gain high-speed network connectivity. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of each network device, be it 10, 100 or 1000Mbps, and intelligently adjusts the throughput accordingly, doing away with the need for cumbersome cross-over cables and uplink ports.
