TP Link have always made decent kit, kind of the Audi of networking kit, not the fastest but often the best bang per buck along with Netgear. Personally having a fair bit of TP’s kit in my house getting this was a no brainer and it was only ยฃ40 so great value. 4 ports poe 4 ports non and all 10/100/1000. Run’s a couple of 300mbps wireless AP’s and provides other links around the house. Well recommended.

My ISP box is located in an awkward place; the power sockets are on the opposite side of the room to where the cable comes into the house, but it is in the perfect position to run a wire upstairs to my computer without being too obvious.
Rather than running a thick power cable across to it, I have this POE switch upstairs by the computer, and power the router via POE and a splitter, basically making it a low voltage, one wire system, that I can hide away anywhere.
I have other small, wifi enabled, switches around the house that I can hide in book cases and simply run a single cable for both data and power, thus cutting down clutter. Running a single Cat6 out into the garden for a Wifi access point is a lot simpler than having to run power as well.
Just make sure you get Gb compatible splitters; I had older 10/100 boxes, which obviously throttled the bandwidth.

Buying a budget POE switch isnโt as easy as it seems. I chose this product because I needed a Poe 802.3af switch for 4K cctv cameras and possibly a POE powered access point in the future. Most of the budget switches are only 10/100mb which isnโt fast enough for 3 4K cameras. From my research this product was the cheapest gigabit switch at the time of buying.
The switch itself works great, just plug and go. Itโs been in the loft for 3 months and I havenโt had any connection drops and I havenโt needed to restart it. 4 of the ports are Poe and there is a light indicator on the back side to show when Poe is in use.
This product isnโt rack mountable and unlike most switches the lights are on the opposite side to the plugs, this means depending on the orientation of the switch you have to turn it round to check if itโs connected, however it does look neat if itโs on a table with the cables passing down the back. It should be noted this doesnโt support POE+ so anything that is power hungry…

This does exactly what it says on it’s sturdy metal tin. It’s an 8 port switch, four of which support power over ethernet (PoE). It’s completely ‘plug & play’ with no configuration at all. I’m currently using it to power my wifi access point, which has PoE, and my broadband modem (using a PoE splitter).
I initially tested it with a Scatterbox PoE splitter and that worked perfectly. Then when I tried a TP-Link splitter, it refused to work. Oddly, this turned out to be a problem with the ethernet cable, and all other cables I tried worked perfectly. I’ve no idea why this one cable caused an issue. Maybe the power wires were crossed over and the Scatterbox could deal with reversed polarity, whilst the TP-Link splitter couldn’t, but that’s just pure speculation.
Apart from that one weird cable issue, it works absolutely perfectly. I’m really happy with it and would definitely recommend.

I honestly thought this would be a cheap bit of plastic but its fantastic. I’m running cisco access points & IP cameras off it, all at once, with no issues at all.
I was previously running a fully managed solution as a test network but got fed up and wanted to ‘simplify’ it and this was the cheapest thing I could find, but I expected a pitfall to come with the pricetag – so far, I have found none.
Its a metal chassis, not a cheap plastic one. Really, really good value for money! If this was ebay I’d offer an A+++ rating!

This thing is small which works out for me in my limited space for networking gear. It’s currently powering my MikroTik CSS326-24G-2S+RM (With a passive Ubiquiti 24V 0.5A injector) and a Raspberry Pi 4 B and potentially some CCTV cameras in the future. Temperatures are good which surprised me, especially with how compact it is.
I’ve only been using this for 3 days but I’m so far pretty impressed. Obviously if there’s any issues or if/when I get some CCTV cameras set up, I’ll edit this review with an update.

Already had a couple of the related switches which work fine – just plug in and go.
Bought this as it has Power Over Ethernet (POE) provision to power some of peripherals (less messy if peripheral does not need local “wall plug” to power it).
Caution: Some peripheral (for example network cameras) sold as “POE” do not meet the full specification – generally they are sold with their own supply/injector and use a non-standard power supply. This switch is fully POE and is not compatible with these products . Check the specifications to see if your peripheral will operate with a fully compliant POE supply.

Quite happy with the switch. I needed a POE switch to power some CCTV cameras and also wanted it to be gigabit so I can hook it up to my NAS and my CCTV DVR. I’m pleased to say its functioning just fine and I’ve had no problems with either POE or with regular gigabit networking on it. I can easily max out the gigabit port on my computer pulling 110MB/sec from my NAS to my workstation. My only gripe is the external power brick as I’m not sure why it could not have been incorporated into the switch itself. But thats a minor issue. It’s 8 port and 4 of the ports are POE capable.
Pros:
Sturdy metal construction
Totally silent operation
Good switch bandwidth (16 Gigabits, so each port can do 1Gbit in full duplex)
Cons:
Consumes a fair amount of power
It doesn’t do 802.11az (green / efficient ethernet) which in 2015 is a bit disappointing.
Big external power brick adapter
