    The NETGEAR MS305 is a fanless, unmanaged 5-port 2.5GbE switch for home users and small offices that want plug-and-play multi-gigabit wired connections without network configuration.

    Recommended For

    • Home-office users connecting a 2.5GbE computer, NAS, and other wired devices near a router, who want a small switch that works without configuration.
    • Small NAS users moving files between 2.5GbE-capable computers and storage, when faster local links matter and the whole network does not need speeds above 2.5Gbps.
    • People adding wired 2.5GbE connections in a home office or small room, such as for a work computer and access point, who can connect the switch back to their router.
    • Users placing a switch in a quiet office or living area who want fanless operation and desktop or wall mounting rather than a rack installation.
