Mercusys MS105GS 5-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch - Steel Case
The Mercusys MS105GS is a five-port gigabit desktop switch that expands wired networks for homes, offices and dormitories. It connects computers, printers, IP cameras, game consoles and 4K TVs with 10 times the speed of older 10/100 Mbps switches, requiring no configuration beyond plugging in an Ethernet cable.
Why this product
Five gigabit ports with auto-negotiation
Each port runs at 10/100/1000 Mbps and automatically detects connected device speeds. Auto MDI/MDIX means any cable orientation works without special crossed cables.
10 Gbps switching capacity
Full-duplex operation delivers stable, collision-free performance across all five ports simultaneously, with MAC address learning and store-and-forward buffering.
Metal case with flexible mounting
Steel housing dissipates heat efficiently and prevents signal interference. Mount on a desk or wall depending on your space and layout.
Plug-and-play setup
No drivers, no configuration, no IP address assignment. Connect an Ethernet cable and start expanding your network immediately.
Energy-efficient operation
Green Ethernet technology reduces power draw using a 5V/0.6A adapter, making it economical to run continuously.

- Works with any device with an RJ45 Ethernet port: computers, laptops, printers, NAS drives, game consoles, streaming boxes and IP cameras.
- Supports 4K Ultra HD TVs and other modern networked entertainment devices.
- Operates with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u and 802.3x standards; fully backward-compatible with older 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps equipment.
- Does not provide Power over Ethernet (PoE); connected devices must have their own power sources.
Best for
- Home networks needing to connect multiple devices without running cables to a router.
- Small offices and dormitories where wired stability matters more than wireless convenience.
- Anyone upgrading from 100 Mbps switches and wanting gigabit speeds with zero setup overhead.
- Installations where a compact, metal-cased device mounted on a wall or desk fits the aesthetic.
Trade-offs
- IP camera systems requiring Power over Ethernet. This switch has no PoE output; cameras need separate power.
- Installations needing more than five wired connections. Only five Ethernet ports are provided.
- Networks requiring advanced management or VLAN configuration. This is an unmanaged switch with no web interface or CLI.
- Users prioritising cable routing flexibility. The compact footprint (99.8 x 98 x 25.1 mm) offers limited port spacing for thick or angled connectors.
Expand Ethernet Network with Gigabit Ports
Quickly expand your wired network with five 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports—10 times faster than regular 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports. MS105GS is flexible and fully compatible with 4K Ultra HD TVs, computers, printers, IP cameras, game consoles, and more. This makes it perfect for use in home, small office, and even dormitory environments.
Durable, Silent, and Flexible
MS105GS's durable metal case allows for efficient heat dissipation, excellent signal interference prevention, reliable equipment stability, and a long network life. And you can put the switch on desk or wall mount to meet your demand.
Plug and Play
Forget about complicated installation. Just connect the switch to your TV or computer via an Ethernet cable to immediately expand your wired network. Absolutely no configuration is required.
Reliable Performance
With Half/Full Duplex and MAC Address Learning Technology, MS105GS provides up to 10 Gbps of stable switching bandwidth.
