This compact, unmanaged switch features five 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports, enabling you to connect up to five devices to your network. It’s designed for straightforward integration into existing infrastructure where basic network segmentation or device aggregation is required, such as in small office setups or for connecting a limited number of IP cameras or access control readers.

Compatibility

This switch is compatible with any standard Ethernet device. It supports the IEEE 802.3u standard for Fast Ethernet and IEEE 802.3i for 10BASE-T Ethernet, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), access control panels, and other network-attached devices.
