Overview

Highlights

Upgrade to a Super-Fast, Futuristic Network
5/8-Port 2.5G Desktop Switch

Unlock the Highest Performance of
2.5G Multi-Gig Bandwidth and Devices
As the flagship 2.5G products, the 5/8-Port desktop switches with 5/8× 2.5-Gigabit ports unlock the highest performance of your Multi-Gig bandwidth and devices, and provide up to 25/40 Gbps of switching capacity. Auto-negotiation 3-speed (100Mb/1G/2.5G) connections sense the link speeds and intelligently adjust for compatibility and optimal performance for all your devices, including 2.5G NAS, 2.5G PCIe adapter, gaming console, VR gaming, 2.5G WiFi 6 AP, 4K video, desktop, and more.

Powerful Performance for Smooth LAN Parties
Never host a laggy LAN party again. Experience the unparalleled speed and lower latency, and prioritize gaming traffic with QoS. Let’s begin the unprecedented smooth game!

Ideal for Small and Home Office
Work at office or home with lightning-fast connections to workstations, desktop computers, and WiFi 6 access points.

2.5G Super-Fast Speeds
without Changing Cables
Flawlessly integrated into existing gigabit Ethernet network infrastructures, 2.5× faster speeds* with regular Cat5e Ethernet cables, without the need to upgrade to Cat6 wiring, reducing wiring costs and hassle.

*2.5× faster speeds refers to the speeds compared to standard 1G ports. The actual speeds may vary due to the cable quality and type, client limitations, and environmental factors.

Silent Operation with
Industry-Leading Fanless Design
The revolutionary fanless design ensures unprecedented silent operation, ideal for any home or business. Durable metal casing, desktop/wall-mounting design and professional heat dissipation design are well-suited for different environments.

Just Plug and Play for Internet Access
A plug-and-play design allows for easy deployment without the need for a technician. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables.

Flexible Deployment Options
The versatile mounting system gives you the flexibility to place the 2.5G switch on a desktop or mount it to a wall.
