    I needed a switch for our TV, Surround Sound Stereo and Blue Ray Player as I did not have a way to feed that many CAT 6 cables into that room. We have had this for a couple of months now and seems to be working well. No lag. Now I don't have the need to pull equipment out to move a single cable from one device to another for updates and streaming. Although it is not a Smart Switch, I felt I did not need one for this scenario. This particular switch left me with one port open in case I need to connect another device.

    Right out of the box, this switch was easy to use. My apartment’s built-in wifi is spotty so I needed something to connect my tv and all of my other devices to the much more stable Ethernet Jack in my wall. This did the trick by making sure everything receives the fastest internet connection and looks great in my entertainment center as well.
