    Great little switch, I do wish the ports were on the back with the power input. Even if it makes it slightly wider it would be less akward.

    If you own a Comcast router, you need this. You only get 2-4 slots. With this your increase capacity and get the most of your internet.

    So far so good. It isn’t too loud either. I wish it came with some ethernet cables to justify the value in my opinion.

    The name pretty much sums up what it is and does, its an eight port gigabit ethernet switch. It functions exactly as it should. If you need a switch, get this one

    This is a solid investment in an Ethernet hub that supports a gigabit backplane. Perfect for gaming systems in a room when Wi-Fi just won’t do!
