    I needed a small switch to put behind my tv, since I only have one Ethernet output and I needed to connect my AppleTV and my PS5. I bought this item and it’s doing great after 2 months, the installation is straightforward, in this 2 months it has never been unplugged and it never failed

    This switch fit perfectly into my home setup. It added the extra Ethernet ports I needed, delivered gigabit speeds without any configuration, and blended in discreetly thanks to its compact, silent build. If you’re looking for a simple, effective way to expand your wired network, this is an outstanding choice.

    Works good. TP-Link may be a budget brand but they seem to make decent things that have done very well for me overall. Better than Linksys, that's for sure.

    I bought this product when I bought my mesh Wi-Fi system. I use this switch specifically for my ethernet cords that are coming from my TV. Sound bar, Apple TV, PS5 we and other electronics. If you see my photo, I have the switch mounted onto the wall hidden behind my TV and everything which is nice.

    TP-Link Makes Networking Easy

    I picked up the TP-Link 5-port gigabit switch to expand my home network, and it’s been absolutely fantastic. Setup was as easy as it gets—literally plug and play. No configuration, no hassle, just connect the cables and it works instantly. Speeds are excellent; I’m getting full gigabit transfers across devices without any hiccups. File sharing, streaming, and even gaming all run smoothly. The switch itself is compact, lightweight, and doesn’t take up much desk space. It runs cool and silent, which is perfect since I have it in my living room setup. For the price, this little switch is a powerhouse. It just works, and it works well. TP-Link nailed it with this one—I couldn’t be happier.

What I Like: ✅ Fast and reliable speeds – No lag or connection drops. ✅ Compact design – Doesn’t take up much space on my desk. ✅ Runs cool and quiet – No overheating or annoying noise. ✅ Super easy to use – Literally just plug it in, and you're good to go. Anything to Consider? No issues so far! If you need a basic, no-fuss Ethernet switch for gaming, streaming, or expanding your home network, this one gets the job done. Highly recommend!

    Increased port capability

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this unmanaged switch to increase the port capability on the master unit of my TP-Link - Deco BE65 Pro BE11000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Mesh Router System (with two 5-Gig Ports). I am now able to connect additional items of equipment to the master unit. The addition of this switch has not noticeably impacted internet speeds delivered to the connected equipment. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend it.

    Cheap but does a good job. I’ve connected 3 devices and all get same speeds. Not to many features but useful to provide more Ethernet connections.

    We have a game room and did not have cabling available. Installed this switch to the one connection we had and then we were able to connect up the rest of the devices. Nice and small so that it is out of the way.
