Compact 5-Port Gigabit Switch

The NETGEAR ProSafe GS305-300PAS is a 5-port Gigabit Ethernet switch built for home and small-office networks. It adds wired connections for PCs, printers, NAS devices and streaming boxes without any configuration. The unmanaged design means it works the moment cables are plugged in.

Plug-and-Play Expansion

Five RJ45 ports auto-negotiate 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds and support 9216-byte jumbo frames. A 768 KB buffer absorbs traffic bursts while IEEE 802.3az energy-efficient operation reduces power draw on idle links. The fanless metal enclosure runs silently and can sit on a desk or be mounted on a wall with the included hardware.

Upgrade from Slower Hubs

Replacing a 10/100 Mbps hub or an older 5-port switch with this model lifts every connected device to full Gigabit throughput. The jump is worth it when file transfers, backups or HD streaming regularly saturate the older link. Buyers who need more than five ports or managed features such as VLANs and QoS should look at larger models.

Questions about this item

How many jumbo frames can the GS305-300PAS buffer before packets start dropping under sustained load?

The switch supports jumbo frames up to 9216 bytes and provides 768KB of buffer memory to absorb traffic bursts.

Does the fanless GS305-300PAS stay silent and cool when all five ports run at 1000 Mbps continuously?

The unit has no fan, so it operates silently; its IEEE802.3az energy-efficient design reduces heat during full-speed operation.

What power source must I already have on site for the GS305-300PAS to function?

The switch includes an external power adapter that plugs into a standard AC outlet.
