Description

The DELA S5 is a high-performance audiophile network switch designed to enhance the quality of digital music streaming systems. Positioned below the flagship S1, it incorporates many of the same core technologies, including precision clocking and advanced noise suppression, in a more accessible package.

Engineered and manufactured in Japan, the S5 features a robust, vibration-controlled chassis and a dedicated low-noise power supply, ensuring stable and clean data transmission across your network. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with high-end music servers, streamers, and DACs, helping to maximise overall system performance.

Key Features

  • 11-port configuration: 7 × RJ45 and 4 × SFP+ ports for flexible connectivity
  • User-selectable port speeds to optimise performance and reduce network noise
  • High-precision NDK clock for accurate data timing
  • Advanced low-noise power supply design for improved signal integrity
  • Rigid HS-CC chassis construction combining aluminium and steel for vibration control
  • Ability to disable unused ports to minimise electrical interference
  • LED brightness control / shutdown for reduced noise and cleaner operation
  • Optical and copper network compatibility via SFP+ and RJ45 connections
  • USB power output (5V) for compatible accessories

Why Choose the S5

The S5 is an ideal choice for audiophiles seeking to improve the performance of their streaming system without stepping up to a flagship model. By focusing on reducing electrical noise, improving timing accuracy, and isolating network traffic, it helps deliver a cleaner signal path to connected audio devices.

It is particularly well suited to systems where network quality is a priority, offering a meaningful upgrade over standard network switches while maintaining the build quality and engineering standards expected from DELA.
