TP-LinkSafeStream TL-480T+ 10/100 Broadband Desktop/Rackmount Loadbalance Router, 150M NAT throughput, 30k Concurrent Sessions, VLAN, Multi-NAT, 4 WAN Load balance or auto failover

Good product for the price, although a bit too big for my taste.Noteworthy is its compatibility to be used as a switch in front of the main unit of a mesh system for ethernet backhauling.

V. Good.

Hello, don't get confused based on Youtube reviews. It's specially for business not for Home usage. YouTubers will tell you to use it at home, but there is no point of using such an advance switch at home.Regards,M

Use this for my Echo Dot, Sonos, 2 NAS Drives, Gaming PC and Laptop. Like the fact the cables are on the back and just the LED show the activity in the front.

The TP-Link TL-SG1005P is a solid choice for a home lab switch. My home is older and didn’t come with any pre-installed Ethernet wiring, so I ran a single Cat 6 cable to a central closet where I’ve set up this switch. It’s been perfect for my needs—providing both power and LAN connectivity to my Ubiquiti Access Point and Zigbee Coordinator, as well as LAN connections for my PC and TV.I’ve had zero issues with this switch, and it performs exactly as expected. It’s a reliable, no-fuss solution that does what it’s supposed to do.

Our tech friend set up a private network for us on our condos open wifi. He recommended this from TP and a router. We now have privacy for banking and online purchases. Works great!!!

I added another PoE powered AP (a TP-Link EAP615 wall mounted AP) in addition to an existing ceiling mounted TP-Link EAP610, and decided it was time to ditch the PoE injector on the EAP610 and power them both through this PoE switch - a much cleaner implementation in my home network rack than a PoE injector with its "wall wart" power brick and related device. Alternatively I could have gotten a smaller capacity multi-port desktop PoE switch, but that doesn't lend itself well to the limited capacity of my little 6U network rack and its tidy cable management.While this switch is a bit pricy, I like that it integrated with my software based Omada controller (running on a Windows always-on home server). This switch allowed me to easily identify everything connected to my wired and wireless networks (home network and VLAN based IoT network) using the Omada controller software GUI. I was a bit intimidated at first by the Omada controller and whether it would let me use it with my pFsense firewall, but it ended up being pretty quick and intuitive to set up, and everything coexists nicely.I've seen some complaints about fan noise - I have this rack mounted in my unfinished basement - the fans make some noise but nothing terrible, and certainly nothing that can be heard in the rest of the house. I'm not sure if fan noise is a fair criticism here - this is a fairly sophisticated device and not something that should be mounted in a living area IMO. This is really more small to medium sized business oriented, where it is likely to reside in a network closet where noise is a given.Given the excess PoE capacity this switch gives me, I will likely add the Omada OC200 hardware controller, as having the software running on a Windows machine means I'm subject to Windows' inevitable software updates and reboots. I tend to favor hardware implementations rather than software implementations anyway - running stuff on host machines and/or VMs is not ideal IMO.I'm pleased with this device - a nice "level-up" to my increasingly sophisticated home network, and the Omada SDN is an inexpensive alternative to other SDNs.

I tried a couple cheaper switches that claimed POE+ and 30W per port but actually delivered much less. This one is a bit more money, but if you need 25W+ then the cheaper one simply won't work. Plugged it in and away it went. Great product!
