The TL-SG105-M2 is a fanless, unmanaged desktop switch with five 2.5 GbE ports. TP-Link lists auto-negotiation for 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps devices.
What to check before setup
For a PC-to-NAS upgrade, wire both devices to the switch and check their negotiated speeds. If either device still links at 1 Gbps, check its adapter and cable before replacing more hardware. Storage performance can also limit a file copy.
Who should buy it?
It suits a small wired setup where only a few devices need faster local transfers. A router uplink generally leaves four ports for devices. If your equipment is all gigabit and you rarely move large files locally, a basic gigabit switch may be enough.
