    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

    Perfectly fit my need. Have two Ethernet cables connected to it, one for the ps5 and the other for the pc in the next room plus the internet router. You can use only one Ethernet at a time though

    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

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

    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.

    This is a well-built switch with a metal outer case. It feels solid, yet is very compact. It fits easily in small spaces and is easy to conceal. The power supply is tiny as well and the cord is thin and flexible. I’ve had several of these for years and their reliability is outstanding.
