FAQ

A gig switch, also known as a gigabit Ethernet switch, is a network device that connects multiple devices within a local area network (LAN) and enables them to communicate at gigabit speeds (1,000 Mbps). It manages data traffic efficiently, ensuring fast and reliable connections for computers, gaming consoles, smart TVs, and other networked devices.

Managed gig switches offer advanced features such as network monitoring, traffic management, and security controls, making them ideal for businesses or complex networks. Unmanaged switches are simpler, plug-and-play devices suitable for home or small office use where advanced configuration is not needed.

Yes, a gig switch is a great way to expand your home network. By connecting the switch to your router, you can add more wired devices like PCs, printers, and smart home hubs, all benefiting from high-speed, stable connections.

Most gig switches are backward compatible with older Ethernet standards such as Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and standard Ethernet (10 Mbps), so you can connect legacy devices without any issues. However, the connection speed will be limited to the maximum supported by each device.

Using a gig switch for gaming or streaming provides faster and more reliable wired connections, reducing latency and buffering. This ensures smoother online gameplay and high-quality video streaming, especially when multiple devices are connected to the network.
