    Not much really to say on this Item. IT works for the tiny office it is in where I just needed a few extra ports without going up to a larger switch. Simple Plug and Play use, can't go wrong.

    I needed a basic switch for work. It didn't need any bells or whistles. It just needed to split the single Ethernet signal so I could diagnose equipment while it was still on the network and I was plugged into both the equipment and network. Great price. Works great.
