Upgrade your onboard network with the Digital Yacht NS5 Network Switch, a rugged 5-port 10/100 Ethernet switch built for reliable marine connectivity. Designed to expand a boat’s wired network, the NS5 delivers fast, stable connections for streaming, VOIP, CCTV, and other bandwidth-heavy services while withstanding the demanding conditions at sea.
Designed to operate from a 9–36 V DC power source, the NS5 features a dual redundancy power supply design for ultimate uptime. It’s provided with a DIN rail mounting bracket and a 100 mm rail, making installation on a vessel’s equipment rack effortless and secure. Five RJ45 ports support 10/100BASE-T, giving you ample wired connections for routers, switches, cameras, and more.
Seamless integration with your marine router
Connect the NS5 to your router via a standard RJ45 Cat5/Cat6 cable, and it will automatically obtain IP addresses for attached devices via DHCP from your 4G/5G router or other network gateway. The intuitive status LEDs on each port let you quickly verify power and link status at a glance—no guesswork, just plug-and-play reliability.
