Hama switch Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) non gestito desktop nero

HAMA Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch is a compact, fanless network device with five Gigabit RJ‑45 ports (10/100/1000) designed for simple, reliable wired connectivity. It supports standard Ethernet protocols including IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3x and energy‑efficient 802.3az for reduced power consumption and operates as a true plug‑and‑play unmanaged switch suitable for desktop placement.

Advantages

The switch offers straightforward deployment without configuration, silent operation due to its fanless design, and full Gigabit throughput on each RJ‑45 port for improved wired network performance. Its compact desktop form factor and included AC power supply make it easy to add or extend wired LAN connections in small environments.

Suitable for

• Small office networks
• Home networking and multimedia streaming
• Expanding wired LANs for printers, NAS or IP cameras

When it may not be suitable

The unmanaged design does not provide advanced features such as VLANs, QoS configuration or SNMP monitoring, so it is not suitable where network segmentation, traffic prioritisation or remote management are required. It also does not support 10G connections, so environments needing multi‑gigabit uplinks should consider a different switch.

Key specifications

• Port count: 5 Gigabit RJ‑45 ports (10/100/1000)
• Switch type: Unmanaged
• Supported Ethernet standards: IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3x, IEEE 802.3az (Energy‑Efficient Ethernet)
• Form factor: Desktop, fanless
• Power: AC power supply included
• Colour: Black

How to use

Place the switch on a stable desktop surface and connect the included AC adapter to a mains outlet. Plug Ethernet cables from your router, modem or existing network into any of the five RJ‑45 ports and connect devices such as PCs, printers or NAS units to the remaining ports. The device operates automatically without additional configuration; status LEDs indicate link and activity for each port.

What to consider before purchase

• Do you need managed features (VLANs, QoS, SNMP)? If so, choose a managed switch.
• Are multi‑gigabit (10G) uplinks required? This model supports up to Gigabit (1 Gbps) per port only.
• Check available desk space and desired port density to ensure five ports are sufficient.

Recommendations

For reliable wired performance in small offices or home networks, connect the HAMA 5‑port Gigabit switch between your router and multiple wired devices; avoid using it where advanced network management or 10G links are needed.
