GS205 vs. GS605

How do I decide what the difference between these two switchwes are?  
As far as I can tell from the website literature, the difference seems to be in the warranty as opposed to performance.  Am I correct or is there some other factor that recommends one over the other?

It also seems that the 605 is not in the retail pipeline as yet.

  • Hi all,

     

    There is a few extra differences on the design and the warranty , see the table below :

    Hi rickcandle87,

     

    Welcome to the community! :) 

     

    There seems to be a little difference on these two switches.  As far as I know, the GS200 switch series is newer than the GS600 switch series.  The GS205v2 and the GS605v5 are the latest models. Here below are the differences between the GS205v2 and GS605v5:
