Features | 8-Port Unmanaged 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet Switch for Home Offices and Workgroups

The energy-efficient NG8POE-M2 network switch connects up to eight devices to a Gigabit Ethernet network and allows them to communicate with each other. It's recommended for your home network, small office, workgroup or creative production environment. It helps you share large bandwidth-intensive files, such as CAD drawings and videos, at 2.5 Gigabit (2.5 Gbps) speeds, improving efficiency and cutting costly downtime.

Maximum Network Functionality

The NG8POE-M2 features eight twisted-pair RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet ports that support auto-negotiable 2.5 Gbps and auto MDI/MDIX functionality, so crossover cables and uplink ports are not needed for connections to PCs, routers and other switches. No configuration is required, so you can have your Gigabit network up and running immediately. IEEE 802.3x flow control (full duplex), back pressure (half duplex) and 60 Gbps switching capacity allow smooth transmission of large files. One 10 Gbps SFP+ port is included for uplinking data to other switches using optical fiber cabling.

Supports Power over Ethernet to Save You Money and Give You More Installation Choices

Because this network switch supports PoE, it can supply the power to operate compatible PoE devices, such as wireless LAN access points and bridges, VoIP phones and IP video cameras. This saves you the expense and effort of purchasing, connecting and installing individual power supplies for each device. It also helps you install PoE devices in areas far away from AC outlets, such as poles or ceilings. Eight RJ45 ports support up to 30W each with a total PoE budget of 100W when using the included AC power adapter.

Complies with IEEE Energy Efficient Ethernet Standards

The NG8POE-M2 supports IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet standards by automatically shifting unused ports into a low-power state without interrupting network connections. It also meets IEEE 802.3ab, 802.3i and 802.3u standards.

Plug-and-Play Functionality for Easy Use

No configuration is required in setting up the unmanaged NG8POE-M2, so you can have your 2.5 Gbps network up and running immediately. Cat5/5e/6/6a UTP/STP cables (sold separately) provide optimal performance. Easy-to-read LEDs indicate connection and activity status for each port. The NG8POE-M2 supports MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging for efficient routing.

USB to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter Connects You to a Wired 1G Network
This USB network adapter instantly connects your computer, notebook, MacBook Pro or Windows laptop to a wired Gigabit network through either a USB-A or USB-C port. No internal Ethernet card is required. Ideal for settings in which no Wi-Fi is available or when a wired connection offers faster speeds, this USB 3.2 Gen 1 adapter lets you enjoy true 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds for uploading and downloading large files and streaming audio/video without buffering.

Plug-and-Play Operation Gets You Online Immediately
This bus-powered network adapter requires no external power source. Just connect the built-in USB-A plug to your computer (a USB-C adapter is included for connecting a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port), and use a Cat6 cable (such as Tripp Lite's N201-Series) to connect the RJ45 end to a network. LEDs indicate when the adapter is connected to your computer and your computer is connected to a network.

Complies with Current IEEE Standards
The U336-000-GB-CA is compliant with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab and 802.3az standards. It supports full duplex with IEEE 802.3x flow control and half duplex with back-pressure flow control, as well as 10/100/1000 auto-sensing, Wake-on-LAN and IPv4 and IPv6 pack Checksum Offload Engine (COE) to reduce CPU loading. The compact unit fits easily into a pocket, purse, backpack or laptop bag for instant file transfers where needed. It's compatible with Windows and macOS.

5-Port Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Connects Your Devices to a LAN

This space-saving switch with EIP QoS transmits data over a Gigabit Ethernet network. Five auto-negotiating 10/100/1000 Mbps ports send data only to the devices designated to receive it, which improves the efficiency and potential throughput of the network.

Ethernet/IP Quality of Service (EIP QoS)

The EIP QoS control mechanism is widely used for Ethernet/IP data streams. Based on the application requirements, this feature helps provide different priorities for different users or data streams. This helps ensure that the performance of data streams deliver at a certain level. Note : While NGI-U05E does support QoS, the feature is handled automatically by our product. If you want to control network traffic flow or prioritize specific ports to your personal preference, you must use a router in your network with a QoS tool to achieve this level of control.

Ruggedized Metal Housing Built to Last in Harsh Environments

The compact NGI-U05E adds 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet capacity to your industrial and commercial applications, such as factory floors, warehouse operations and other environments with space constraints and wide temperature ranges. The industrial-grade high-strength case withstands vibration, shock and free fall. It can also operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to 75 degrees Celsius (-40 to 167 degrees Fahrenheit).

Unmanaged Switch Requires Little to No Configuration 

Quickly connect your network devices with little to no configuration. LEDs indicate when the switch is powered on and which Ethernet ports are showing activity. The NGI-U05E supports MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging for efficient routing, as well as automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection for plug-and-play functionality. IEEE 802.3x flow control allows smooth transmission of large files.

Works with the Most Popular Web Browsers

The NGI-U05E is browser-based and works independently from the connected computer's operating system. Because switch compatibility is based on common hardware standards, rather than system software dependencies, the NGI-U05E accommodates most platforms. Preferred web browsers include Google Chrome (on both Windows and macOS) and Microsoft Edge (Windows only).

Flexible Mounting Options

The open-type device may be DIN mounted using the pre-installed rail clip, which mounts firmly to any standard 35 mm DIN rail. It may also be wall mounted vertically or horizontally using the rear mounting holes. A 3-pin 12-48VDC terminal block supplies power input. Device power must be supplied by SELV circuit.

TAA-Compliant for GSA Schedule Purchases

The NGI-U05E is compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
