Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the product's flawless performance, ease of use, and speed, making it a valuable addition to their networks. The availability of numerous ports, reasonable price, and suitable size further contribute to customer satisfaction. On the other hand, some customers have expressed minor concerns regarding the clarity of instructions, while others suggest using a UPS for power outages. However, the switch is generally praised for not generating excessive heat or noise.

    This was purchased for a small business and has worked without any issues for over a month. 16 Ports allow for future expansion and the Gigabit bandwidth maximises your network possibilities.

    Replaced an existing device that was 8 years old and it worked fine. In troubleshooting, I found out that this device has a lifetime guarantee - so I contacted NETGEAR and was sent a replacement device - so now I have a spare.

    I have 15 years experience in the IT field. I have used a lot of these switches. They are great if you do not need to separate your network into different segments. Like putting your camera and computers on different networks. This switch will not do that. Other than that it works great.
