TP-Link TL-SG1005D 5-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch
The TP-Link TL-SG1005D is a 5-port Gigabit desktop switch built for small offices, workgroups, and home networks that need to move large files faster. It handles 10/100/1000 Mbps connections automatically, and uses energy-efficient technology to cut power consumption when ports are idle or cables are short.
Why this product
Auto-negotiating Gigabit ports
Each of the 5 ports detects whether a device runs at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps and adjusts automatically. Auto MDI/MDIX means you do not need crossover cables.
Green Ethernet cuts idle power
The switch detects when a port is idle or connected via a short cable and reduces power draw accordingly. Maximum consumption is 3W.
Plug and play, no setup
No configuration needed. Drop it on your desk or wall, plug in the power adapter and network cables, and it works immediately.
10 Gbps switching capacity
All ports can move data simultaneously without bottlenecks, at a forwarding rate of 7.4 Mpps.

- SKUTPL-1227
- EAN6935364091804
- Works with any device that has a standard RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port (laptops, desktops, printers, network drives, routers).
- Supports 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps devices on the same switch without manual configuration.
- Mounts flat on a desk or vertically on a wall; power adapter is included.
- Does not provide Power over Ethernet (PoE); each connected device must have its own power source.
Best for
- Small offices and workgroups moving large CAD, video, or graphic files between machines
- Home networks upgrading from Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) to Gigabit
- Desktop setups where power efficiency and compact size matter
- Users who need zero configuration—unbox, connect, and run
Trade-offs
- Data centres or high-capacity deployments. With 2K MAC addresses and 1.5 Mb buffer, it is designed for small networks, not enterprise infrastructure.
- Power-critical installations requiring PoE. This switch does not deliver power to connected devices and is not suited for IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones that rely on PoE.
- Mission-critical systems. No warranty period is stated in the record; check the retailer or vendor for coverage before deploying in production environments.
The TP-Link 5-Port Gigabit desktop switch TL-SG1005D provides you an easy way to make the transition to Gigabit Ethernet. Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality. Moreover, TL-SG1005D adopts lower power consumption design. With the innovative energy-efficient technology, the TL-SG1005D can save power consumption, making it an eco-friendly solution for your home or office network. Featured with 5 10/100/1000Mbps ports, TL-SG1005D greatly expands your network capacity, enabling instant large files transferring. So, 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.
You now have the choice to go green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This new generation TL-SG1005D 5-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch features the latest innovative energy-efficient technologies that can greatly expand your network capacity with much less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to the link status and cable length to limit the carbon footprint of your network.
When a computer or network equipment is off, the corresponding port of a traditional switch will continue to consume considerable amounts of power. The TL-SG1005D can automatically detect the link status of each port and reduce the power consumption of ports that are idle.
Ideally, shorter cable would use less power because of less power degradation over their length; this is not the case with most devices as they will use the same amount of power across the cable regardless of the length.
The auto features of this gigabit switch make installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is required. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminate the need for crossover cables. 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.
