MokerLink 10 Port Gigabit PoE Switch - 8 GE PoE+, 2 GE Uplink, 10/100/1000Mbps, 120W 802.3af/at, Fanless Plug & Play Ethernet Switch

I'm currently running two of these switches trunked through the 10G fiber ports on the bottom of my 10" rack. I didn't find many reviews on them but decided to give them a chance. The webgui is pretty intuitive as long as you have a baseline of networking tech. I was told by my senior engineer that there's no way I'm getting 2.5G through these, so I spent a significant amount of time with iperf. The results were astounding! I averaged about 2.38 Gbps from one computer trunked through 2 of these switches to a mini pc!A bonus to these is that they really don't get very hot or use much power, about 5w at idle! I've been using these for a year now and I think I've more than got my money's worth out of them.

This is a review of 8 x 2.5Gbe POE switch with 10G SFP+. So far, I really like this switch especially given its price point. It's been deployed to an attic in the Great Lakes area which should be safe given the advertised operating temp/humidity ranges. It's being used with Ubiquiti gear both upstream/downstream and seems to be passing the VLAN tags without issue. The SFP+ port successfully negotiated at 10Gbe despite a 100+ ft CAT6 run and uncertified SFP+ module. Both devices I tested with successfully negotiated at 2.5Gbe. As seen in the screenshot, my computer was able to get the full bandwidth too. I repeated the test multiple times with only very slight variations in the jitter. Testing was performed while an WIFI-7 access point and 5 4K/2K cameras were actively transmitting data and using bandwidth. Finally, it's been providing POE to a WIFI-7 access point, 5 cameras, and 1 switch in over 90 degree weather. Ubiquiti says these devices have a max combined max consumption up to 66W.

Good classic unmanaged switch. No fan so silent and POE without difficult enablement.

Budget friendly way to upgrade to a 2.5gb network. Haven't tested the full claimed switching bandwidth, but it has not been the bottleneck in network stress tests.

Was working great up until it didn’t.. now, the last 6 indicator lights just flash on and off and it’s not working.

Port vlan, fine. 802.1Q vlan/pvid makes no sense when you cannot modify vlan 1 which is default. All ports are a part of default vlan. Creating other vlan is a waste because all ports can access it. Other switches that cost less allow you to modify default vlan, by removing ports that are a part of your created vlans. I can only use port vlan. Wish I would have know that.I do like the quietness of the switch.

I purchased 3 of these and all were setup with no issues. They worked the very first time I connected everything. Could not have asked for an easier setup. Initially, they were connected to my main router via ethernet, but then I upgraded to fiber and the switch over was seamless. I reached out to support on what type of SFP+ module I should use and they replied in less than 24-hours and provided direct links to modules I should consider. Those modules worked perfectly the first time. I am very pleased with these switches.

This is a very simple PoE switch, this is not a passive PoE switch but an actual PoE+ switch. If you are needing a PoE switch to power cameras, wireless access points or phones via single ethernet cable it is very important that you know what kind of device you have to make sure it can draw power from this switch. Most of my older cameras and access points are passive PoE -- this switch cannot deliver power to those devices as it only supports the newer PoE+ power delivery.Most devices pull less than 5 or 10 watts when powered over ethernet, but you have a pretty good amount of power that this switch can provide which puts it ahead of the other similar switches (120 watts total power delivery). If your using this for security cameras you can most likely safely connect all 8 ports and not be near that max power delivery. Really with this kind of wattage your going to probably be fine for a good mix of phones, access points and cameras.This is not a managed switch but you do have 3 modes to potentially take advantage of, but if your looking for the other two modes your probably not the intended audience for this switch. The V (VLAN) mode isolates all ports into separate VLAN's, I didnt test how this works, and the documentation that comes with the switch does not even mention the switches (it is only mentioned here on this product page). The D mode is the one you should just leave it in as it is the default operating mode where it acts like a normal un-managed PoE+ switch. The E mode is supposed to drop the port speed to 10Mbit (instead of 1Gbit) to allow for longer link stability. If you running a cable long enough that stability is in question your probably doing something wrong).Overall this little switch has been running for a while without any surprises. I took a star of for poor documentation but other than that, this makes a great switch for newer PoE cameras.
