DES-1005C Overview
DES-1005C is engineered with a robust, energy-efficient architecture designed for small to medium size networks. Built exclusively for desktop deployment, it operates on a standard AC power supply while offering a seamless configuration of 10/100 Ethernet ports that ensure steady connectivity and reliable performance.
The switch is optimized for simple networking environments where high manageability is not a priority, as it is an unmanaged device. While not supporting advanced stacking or modular scalability, DES-1005C delivers consistent throughput for typical office and branch applications, making it ideal for cost-effective network expansion and day-to-day connectivity tasks.

DES-1005C Use Case
Retail POS and IP Surveillance Integration
Scenario: A small retail store needs to connect two POS terminals and three IP cameras to its backbone router. Implementation: Deploy the DES-1005C-D-Link 5-port 100M non-managed switch with 1G backplane bandwidth and 0.74Mpps forwarding rate. Its compact 104×57×27 mm plastic case and DC 5V/0.55 A mini-USB external power make under-counter mounting quick and cable-clutter free. Outcome: Delivers stable, low-latency transaction data and smooth surveillance video streams, reduces downtime, and requires zero configuration—optimizing staff productivity and loss prevention.
SMB Branch Office Network Expansion
Scenario: A small branch office must add four workstations, a VoIP phone, and a network printer to an existing router uplink. Implementation: Install the DES-1005C 5×100 Mbps switch to provide extra Ethernet ports with a 1 Gbps backplane and 0.74 Mpps packet forwarding. The plug-and-play, non-managed design powered by DC 5V/0.55 A via mini-USB simplifies installation in a crowded desk environment. Outcome: Enables reliable simultaneous voice, data, and print services, minimizes hardware footprint, and eliminates configuration overhead—improving staff connectivity and operational efficiency.
Conference Room AV and Wi-Fi Distribution
Scenario: A corporate meeting room requires connections for a video-conferencing codec, wireless access point, presentation hub, digital whiteboard, plus uplink to the corporate LAN. Implementation: Use the DES-1005C 5-port D-Link switch with 1 Gbps backplane and 0.74 Mpps forwarding to handle high-bandwidth AV streams and network traffic. Its 104×57×27 mm plastic housing and mini-USB power supply make it easy to mount behind displays or under tables. Outcome: Guarantees lag-free 1080p conferencing, seamless Wi-Fi coverage, and quick plug-and-play setup—enhancing meeting productivity and simplifying AV infrastructure.
