Devices such as wireless access points, network cameras, or IP phones can be powered directly through the network cable. Additionally, you can use the switch to add more Ethernet devices like computers, printers, and network-attached storage (NAS) systems to your network. The DES-1005P is equipped with a PoE port and saves energy thanks to D-Link's Green Ethernet technology when not in use. Its fanless design ensures silent operation, making it an ideal solution for office environments, libraries, or meeting rooms. The first port of the DES-1005P supports the PoE standard IEEE 802.3af, allowing for power over PoE of up to 15.4 watts. The required power is automatically detected, so no configuration is necessary. Therefore, the DES-1005P is particularly suitable for applications with a limited number of power outlets or for those looking to minimize the effort associated with additional connections. The DES-1005P prioritizes network traffic, ensuring that time-sensitive data is efficiently delivered even during peak load times. This allows multimedia content and VoIP calls to be streamed at optimal performance. All ports of the DES-1005P support automatic MDI/MDIX detection, eliminating the need for crossover cables and uplink ports. Each port can be connected directly to a server, hub, router, or switch using a standard, straight-through twisted-pair Ethernet cable.
