The TP-Link TL-SG105S is an unmanaged five-port Gigabit Ethernet switch for adding wired network connections to a router or other network. Its claimed plug-and-play setup and fanless operation suit a home or quiet office, while its five ports leave four for connected devices when one links back to the network.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing describes five Gigabit ports but says the switch can connect a router to up to four devices. Treat that as one uplink plus four device connections, not five additional device ports. The listing does not confirm that every connected device will achieve Gigabit throughput, which also depends on the connected network and equipment.
