Hi, saw this on my feed and noticed that i bought this exact switch 4 weeks ago. saddly it suddenly died a week ago. poe and networking was dead, only one led was still on. Return to amazon was flawless as usual. I dont know if it was bad luck or a general Problem. The switch was operating in a room temperature Environment and delivered about 30W of poe 24/7 to 3 access points with 2,5g and one uplink to my switch but only over 2.5g not sfp+. Until it died the switch worked perfectly fine. Maybe this helps one or another on a purchase decission.
Should be legit. I ordered the same one a couple of days ago. Still have to test it out
Holding out for managed ones coming in the new year.
everyone in here has a gucci poweredge or proliant but when it comes to networking they’ll buy a potmetal switch made by a child slave in bangladesh and call it a day if it has 2.5g connections
It’s great but it’s unmanaged so for me that’s not ideal. STH has a bunch of reviews on units similar to this but all are unmanaged
For about $300, you can also get the Netgear MS108EUP
If you’re looking for managed 2.5/PoE, FS has you covered for about $350
Dont do it. Its a chinaman switch.
The other option is Chinaman with an American sticker?
TAA Compliant Switch only.
when you get to the big leagues, you clowns will see why TAA Compliance is important.
idk man 2.5G always felt like HD-DVD. Gotta go blu-ray, man
Im going laser disk for my network!
I mean I think 2.5g is just becoming the new 1g. my last two motherboards have had 2.5g, Nas hardware is coming with 2.5g standard now, the last usb ethernet dongle I got for my laptop I got 2.5g for a few quid extra. At that point all I need is a switch and I have a free network upgrade. But I do agree with you - if 1g is too slow, more than likely 2.5g is as well, so it’s straight to 10g and beyond.
You want us to move to a proprietary solution? Smh
I have a 10Gb connection but for the moment I will run 2.5Gb for all devices.
I will migrated to 10Gb when switches are around $100.
Likely comes pre-rooted for free too! 🫠
There was even cheaper options linked in this sub yesterday… including ones with 10G uplinks, and 8x 2.5G ports.
Ah yes from the known and trusted “Davuaz”
I don’t think it’s that far-fetched. Plus, it’s amazon. You can return it if you’re not happy with it
Unmanaged. Not much use.
For when you want black and orange, but can’t afford Aruba.
