Review: Awesome product with easy installation - Works flawlessly. Super easy install with plug and play (and forget it) installation. Speeds are more than adequate for networked POE security cameras.
Review: Cute Little Baby Switch - I run a Home-Lab that includes 2 of these little PoE switches. Working in an Enterprise IT environment, I would often forget that these smaller residential/hobby switches exist, but gosh to I love them. Not only are they cute, but they provide that enterprise level functionality with PoE. This means it could be used to wire up a PoE security camera system, handling both your network connection and power in one cable! Minus the countless other applications of PoE, this switch provides ample value for what you're paying. The build quality even on a switch this small is great! Feels heavy and sturdy but could honestly be held up by a number of command strips (Please... don't do that though!!!). I haven't noticed any problems with my unit getting too hot or needing anything special to operate as intended. All 8 ports work as expected and the throughput is, in fact, Gigabit as advertised. So no problems there. If you are looking for something consolidated but powerful, this could be for you!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Switch for Both RJ45 and Optical Connections
*by M***7 on January 1, 2026*

Excellent reliable ethernet switch purchased for the ability of optical connection. Switch has worked as expected with no issues. I haven't used the PoE function, but they can be turned off via the web UI. I use both the RJ45 and the optical connection for music streaming. This has been very reliable since installed.
