If you have selected recycling, please ensure your existing appliance is disconnected (and defrosted where relevant) before our team arrive. 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.

You now have the choice to go green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This new generation TL-SG108 features the latest innovative energy-efficient technologies that can greatly expand your network capacity with much less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to the link status and cable length to limit the carbon footprint of your network. While the switch won't identify devices, all other options in the manage software work great, with some extras I wasn't expecting. 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.

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.

Advanced Software Features Prioritize your traffic and guarantee high quality of video or voice data transmission with Port-based 802.1p/DSCP QoS and IGMP Snooping Study Metal Case Fanless Quiet Design, Desktop or Wall-mounting Design. Operating Temperature: 0 degree Celsius -40 degree Celsius (32 degree Fahrenheit -104 degree Fahrenheit) Then I have 3x cameras connected to the TL-SG108 Switch. So, so far, 4x connections. 1 from the router, 3x from cameras.Das Sytem ist Fan-Less/passiv gekühlt (oder welche Bezeichnung man auch immer dafür wählen möchte) - es hat auf jeden Fall keinen Lüfter und macht keinen Lärm. Damit eignet sich sich perfekt als Desktopswitch oder auch in Umgebungen, wo man vielleicht doch etwas mehr Probleme mit dem sonoren Rauschen von Ventilatoren haben könnte. Falls jemandem auffällt, dass ich irgendwo einen entscheidenen Fehler gemacht habe oder einen Punkt übersehen habe, bitte ich um eine kurze Antwort unter meiner Rezension. (Geht das noch? Meine letzte Rezension ist schon eine ganze Weile her.) 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. 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.
