Review: Great unmanaged switch - This switch is the 16-port unmanaged switch, this works great for my needs for my home network. I get my full one gig going to every port just fine, and I have Cox internet. I have had it for three months and so far, no issues. Definitely recommend for home or small office. Easy to setup, basically just power it on. It has not made any noise at all but I have mine inside my home so those of you using this switch in an attic or somewhere warmer may notice fans running more than mine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great unmanaged switch
*by A***S on June 29, 2023*

This switch is the 16-port unmanaged switch, this works great for my needs for my home network. I get my full one gig going to every port just fine, and I have Cox internet. I have had it for three months and so far, no issues. Definitely recommend for home or small office. Easy to setup, basically just power it on. It has not made any noise at all but I have mine inside my home so those of you using this switch in an attic or somewhere warmer may notice fans running more than mine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Big and Heavy Switch
*by D***R on April 8, 2014*

This has got to be the biggest and heaviest switch I've ever seen and immediately impressed me as a big step up from anything else I've ever used. The small plastic switches I've used for years in my Ethernet network look really puny by comparison. I decided on this massive switch because I was upgrading my home network after many years and wanted something that would future-proof me for at least a few years. I don't have a rack so locating the switch on the top of my Dell Precision Workstation seemed to be the best idea and so far has worked without a hitch. I decided on the 16 port switch because it seemed I was always running out of ports on my old network and I didn't want that problem again. It seems as if every piece of equipment one buys today wants its own access to the internet and although many will go Wi-Fi there are still many that want an Ethernet cable. I think, at least for a few months, that I will not have any problem providing that want. I'm using this switch in conjunction with the ASUS RT-AC68U Wireless-AC1900 Dual-Band Gigabit Router which has only four Ethernet ports. As it stands right now, one of those ports is connected to my Dell and one is connected to this switch. I believe it will take some time to fully realize the potential of this equipment, but the potential for fine-tuning and future improvements is there, I believe. If anything notable develops, I will update this review but so far absolutely no complaints.
