    I have a business that a thunderstorm killed my switch and shut my business down. Luckily I knew exactly where to go. Headed to Best Buy and they had this switch in the shelf. I had my business up and running within an hour. Thanks Best Buy!

    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.
