Product Features
Technical Overview
The AT-FS710/5-10 features five Fast Ethernet ports that deliver data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps per port, suitable for typical office file sharing, internet access, and peripheral connectivity. Its unmanaged design means no configuration is required—simply connect devices, and the switch automatically handles network traffic using store-and-forward switching with auto-negotiation for speed and duplex settings.
Built with a desktop form factor, the switch measures 5.16" wide by 3.98" deep by 1.81" high, making it easy to place on a desk, shelf, or in a network closet. The low 1.80W power consumption contributes to energy efficiency, and the device complies with environmental standards including RoHS, REACH, and WEEE directives.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

FAQ
How many devices can I connect to this switch?
The Allied Telesis AT-FS710/5-10 provides five Fast Ethernet ports, allowing you to connect up to five wired devices such as computers, printers, or network storage. Since it's an unmanaged switch, all connected devices will be on the same network segment, making it ideal for small office or home office setups where simple expansion is needed.
Does this switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
No, this switch does not support Power over Ethernet. The five Fast Ethernet ports provide data connectivity only, so any PoE devices like IP cameras or wireless access points will require separate power adapters or a PoE injector. This is typical for basic unmanaged switches in this class.
What is the maximum data transfer speed of this switch?
Each port supports Fast Ethernet speeds up to 100 Mbps (10/100Base-TX). The total switching capacity is 1 Gbps across all ports, which is sufficient for typical office tasks like file sharing, internet browsing, and printing. It is not a Gigabit switch, so it's best suited for networks where higher speeds are not a critical requirement.
Can I mount this switch in a rack?
No, the AT-FS710/5-10 is designed as a desktop switch and does not include rack-mounting brackets or a rack unit form factor. Its compact dimensions make it suitable for placement on a desk, shelf, or in a network closet. For rack deployment, consider Allied Telesis managed switches that offer rack-mountable options.
Is this switch manageable via a web interface or CLI?
No, this is an unmanaged switch, meaning it does not have a web interface, command-line interface, or SNMP support for configuration. It operates in plug-and-play mode with auto-negotiation for speed and duplex settings, making it easy to deploy without IT expertise but lacking features like VLANs, QoS, or monitoring.
What type of cables does this switch require?
The switch supports standard twisted-pair Ethernet cables (Cat5e or higher recommended) with RJ45 connectors. It is compatible with 10/100Base-TX networking and can handle cable lengths up to 100 meters per port. The auto-MDI/MDIX feature allows use of either straight-through or crossover cables without manual configuration.
What uplink, SFP, fiber, or media support detail is listed?
The warranty or support detail listed is No, giving buyers a clearer picture of expected coverage after purchase.
