Title: Simple and functional switch!
Review: What more is there to say about this thing? It’s a 8-Port unmanaged gigabit switch that does exactly what any switch should do. This is a functional but quality little product. It’s super compact and light, and would probably outlast me if given the chance. As for setup, what setup? Plug it in and connect your devices and you’re good to go. I mean it really doesn’t get any simpler, it’s super affordable, works perfect, you can hang it on the wall or set it on a desk. It’s a TP-Link product and I’ve never had any issue with the multitude of other TP-Link products I own.Also, if you think the price is too low, it’s not. That’s just TP-Link pricing, great functional products for less.

Title: Great TP- Link product.
Review: Iโve been using TP- Link products for years for business and personal projects and I have yet to have anything fail. Knock on wood. I was in IT for a large corporation and started using some TP-Link products for some overseas projects when we ran into needs that we hadnโt anticipated. Their products were usually readily available at local shops so I got what I could to solve my needs. I had no clue if they were good quality or not but I needed the, so I went with them. Every TP product I have purchased is very good quality. I had used another well known brand for years but started noticing too many failures right after the warranty ended. I switched to TP-Link and like I said havenโt seen anything fail yet. Super easy to install, nice and compact and works great. The other brand switch was acting up and then failed completely so I purchased this and it is working great. Cont say enough how happy I have been with TP products. Iโve probably been using their products for 10+ years with no complaints. ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป

Title: Plug and Play… that’s all there is to it.
Review: I decided to change my wireless home camera set up to wired. Well, my router only has 4x 1Gbps LAN ports and I have my PC + 5 cameras at the moment.I wanted to just turn Wi-Fi off. I mean, Wi-Fi cams are so easy to hack. I’ve hacked my own and got my credentials + password.So, after having more and more neighbors move in nearby (ughhh), and knowing that I could see everything about their wireless networks, (I am a computer tech guy, I’m not naming software, but I can see who has Ring door bells, smart appliances, cameras and which routers they go to and which extenders are on that LAN).I didn’t want anyone seeing me. So, wired, here I come.I have an 8 foot ( I think ) Cat8 (don’t ask haha, family member had one) Ethernet cable going from my PC to router. That’s port 1. Then I have port 2 going from my router to the TP-Link TL-SG108 8 Port Gigabit Switch. I bought it over the 5 port because… why not? The price was there to just go for the 8 port imo. Plus, I’m gonna fill it up eventually. Then I have the other two 1Gbps ports on my router going out to a camera.Then I have 3x cameras connected to the TL-SG108 Switch. So, so far, 4x connections. 1 from the router, 3x from cameras.Ping to cameras are still <1ms, just like the ones connected directly to the router. I'm using several 30ft and a 50ft Cat 7 ethernet cables from Amazon Basics. They work perfectly.My motherboard has 2.5Gbps Ethernet, so I would have liked to have went with a 2.5Gbps switch, but then I'd also need a 2.5Gbps Ethernet router... so yeah..1Gbps it is. Plus, it was way cheaper, anyways. I can't believe how cheap it is. It feels SOLID. Heavy for its size. That is ALWAYS a positive sign in the electronics world. Light electronics are cheaply made. This is not cheap. It doesn't even get warm to the touch.I'm excited and looking for more cameras to add to it haha.Oh, and yes, it's literally plug and play. It's as if all you're doing is adding more ports to your router. There is no other set up involved. To see the devices connected to the switch, you go to your router's admin page as normal.Zero set up other than plugging in the power adapter into it and then the wall. Then just plug your ethernet cable from your router to it. Now... any ethernet devices plugged into the switch will show up on your router and, as such, your home network. I'd buy more. I WANT 2.5Gbps so I'm ready to a 2.5Gbps router, but really, I'll probably have 10Gbps Ethernet on my motherboard by then.Ya can't keep up with the latest and greatest. Besides, my cameras don't come close at all to touching 1Gbps. I use H.264 encoding and they're older. For fun, I used "jpeg" encoding to hit 70Mbps, but it handled it fine. So I went back to H.264 and only run at 15Mbps combined speed.Update: I've now added another Ethernet cable to this TL-SG108 and plugged it into my Samsung SmartTV. Again, zero issues. It's handling everything I throw at it.110% satisfied with this purchase. If I'm not careful, I'm gonna fill up all 8 ports and have to buy another one haha. Good thing my router is also powerful enough to handle all this (DIR-878). It's nothing special, but it, too, is part of the equation in handling so much data coming through the Ethernet cable that's going to the TL-SG108.I'll stop here... because I'm pretty much saying "I love it" over and over. DEFINITELY recommend it or whichever model you need with the amount of ports you need. I'd recommend future-proofing and going with the 8-port over the 5 port since you will be down 1 port from the get go since you have to plug your router into it. The price is not much more and you don't want to regret not getting the 8 port over the 5 port.BUT that depends on your needs. You may need a 5 port on one side of your house and another 5 port on the other end, I dunno. That's why I went with the 8 port... and then got some 35ft and 50ft Cat7 cables from Amazon Basics.LOVE IT!

Title: Stable, Reliable, Compact
Review: Iโve been using this switch for over a year as a splitter, and itโs been flawless. Not a single issue. Itโs compact, plugs straight into the router via Ethernet, and uses a separate power cable for the wall. You can hardโwire up to four devices, and I consistently see around 950 Mbps up and down. Rockโsolid stability.One thing to note: for some reason, the Tether app doesnโt recognize this switch, but it doesnโt affect performance at all. My only real complaint is the short power cable, which limits where you can place the unit. Other than that, itโs an excellent product and absolutely worth the purchase.

Title: Quality – You Get What You Pay For
Review: This 5-port 2.5G unmanaged TP-Link isn’t quite the tano like its Omada sister, but it performs well, quality internal connectors, versatile wall or surface mounting options, and includes the power adapter. It works like a multi-gig unmanaged switch is supposed to and helps bang our ISP plan’s max 2G speeds thru the network.You can find plenty of off-brand multi-gig switches on Amazon that cost less, but I’ve tried a couple of those that I returned and then bought this TP-Link (along with a couple of Omada’s). This is one of those items you get what you pay for. Skip the no-brand knockoffs spend the +$20 for this TP-Link or the Omada, and save yourself the future headaches.

Review: Habe mir den Switch gekauft, um die Datensicherung von zwei Rechnern hinter meiner alten Fritz!Box (nur 100Mbit, bedient aber ein zweites analoges Telefon) zu beschleunigen. Das hat auch geklappt. Jetzt ist nicht mehr das Netzwerk der Engpass, sondern das Finden der zu sichernden Daten und die Ablage in einem langsam etwas zu vollen HomeServer. Genaue Messungen habe ich nicht vorgenommen. Fรผr meine Belange reicht der Durchsatz auf jeden Fall locker.Das Gerรคt funktioniert bisher einwandfrei. Mir gefรคllt das Metallgehรคuse mit seiner fรผr diesen Preis ungemein hochwertigen Haptik. Eine Erwรคrmung ist kaum spรผrbar, was auf einen guten Energiehaushalt hindeutet. Allerdings sind bisher nur 5 Ports belegt.LEDs neben den Ports zeigen an, ob ein Gigabit-fรคhiges Gerรคt oder etwas Langsameres angeschlossen ist. Hier bevorzuge ich persรถnlich meine anderen Switche, die hinten die Ports und vorne die Anzeige sowie ein eingebautes Netzteil haben. Je nach Aufstellung/Montage kann man das aber auch umgekehrt sehen. Es gibt fรผr beide Lรถsungen Argumente dafรผr und dagegen.Am Ende entschieden hier der Preis und die sehr guten Bewertungen fรผr ein Produkt, das mir technisch auf der Hรถhe der Zeit scheint, sodass es unkompliziert und energiesparend hoffentlich lange betrieben werden kann. Wahrscheinlich werde ich mir bald noch ein oder zwei Gerรคte dieses Typs fรผr anstehende Erweiterungen bzw. WLAN-Ablรถsungen zulegen!
