Binardat 4 Port 2.5G Switch with 2x10G SFP, 4 x 2.5 Gigabit RJ-45 Ethernet Ports, Support Vlan, Metal Unmanaged Multi-Gigabit Desktop Network Switch

This switch does exactly what it says it will perfectly. We recently upgraded our home broadband to be faster than 1Gbps to 1.6Gbps. With that, our current home networking equipment only supported 1Gbps, so we needed a faster switch to be able to enable those faster speeds to a few specific devices we wanted to be able to access the full 1.6Gbps. This switch has been the perfect device to enable us to do that, with the dual 10Gbps SFP ports, I've been able to connect a 10Gbps uplink from this Binardat switch, to the Unifi UDM SE main router we have, with our internet coming into that over an existing 2.5Gbps WAN port. Then with this connected via that 10Gbps link, I've been able to connect up the 3 devices we have that support 2.5Gbps connections. (2x Windows PC's and 1x Caldigit TS4 Dock) Since connecting it up, I've tested the throughput speed between two devices connected to the switch using iPerf and registers a consistent 2.3Gbps which I think is pretty reasonable, especially at the price point comparing to other 2.5Gbps ethernet switches on the market. This has been perfect for what we wanted to achieve, a still primarily 1Gbps home network, but with a few 2.5Gbps compatible ports for those few devices we have that support it. I would strongly recommend this switch if you're in a similar situation just wanting to enable 2.5Gbps for a few devices!

Easy to set up and performs well extending high speed wired network. Note, I also changed network cables.

These are fantastic. I have 3 and about to order number 4. I don’t know what people are talking about regarding the fan. I have never heard a single noise from any of mine. Honestly for the price, the quality of these devices is remarkable and its future proofing with the 10gbps SFP ports. If you are looking at buying one of these, don’t hesitate. I can’t imagine this ever being a bad buy for anyone.

Great little unit. Works great, and can confirm, 10G works on the sfp ports too.

Marche très bien. Gros intérêt pour moi qui possède une freebox delta ça me permet de amener la fibre jusqu'au bureau ( pc gaming +PC de madame + ma station de travail.)

気に入ったところ 熱も持たない、スペース取らないコンパクト。範囲も10Gまで対応してるところ 欠点、 ケーブルが短いので配置場所が限られる事。仮に伸ばすなら延長ケーブルが必須。 ハブ数が足りなければ多いのを選べばいいところもポイント高いところ。ただハブ数増えるとコンパクトとは言えなくなるところもあるので一長一短。 私の使い方ですがゲーム機、PC その他な感じで繋げてます。1番驚いたのがやはりコンパクトなのにハブに熱持つ感じが無いところです。 結論 このハブ数で足りるなら本当に色んな人にオススメ出来る程のハブだと感じます。

There weren't any reviews for this particular switch, so here you go. This switch is for those that need to convert a couple SFP+ 10G connections to a small number 2.5G or 1G RG45 connections, and are okay with an unmanaged switch. It's a good way to start experimenting with speeds beyond 1Gbps without spending too much. Construction is all metal, and it will take a few minor bumps without issue. It comes with a wall-wart style power supply for North American outlets, four rubber feet one can stick on, and an unhelpful quick start guide. This is an unmanaged switch so don't expect anything fancy. It does do what it is supposed to for a reasonably price (as far as these devices go). For my purposes, it's a win. I tested all the ports using iperf3 and they performed as expected. Testing from 2.5G to 2.5G (or to SFP-10G) I saw rates between 2.3 and 2.4Gbps; and going from SFP+ to SFP+, I saw rates around 9.4Gbps. Diving deeper....the switch passes VLAN tags just fine, even though it doesn't understand them. For SFP/SFP+ compatibility, I tried a generic 10G DAC cable, a generic SFP-10G-SR transceiver (coded as Intel), a generic SFP-10G-LR (coded as OEM), and a QSFPTEK SFP-1G RJ45 transceiver. All worked just fine. It supports both 1G SFP and 10G SFP+, and has an LED indicating which is detected. It has a small switch on the front labeled "Default or VLAN". This doesn't have anything to do with 802.1Q VLANs, this is a port isolation switch to prevent traffic between 2.5G ports. I did not test it, and most people will want to leave it at the default position. If this fits your needs, it's worth consideration. I'm happy with it so far.

ottimo switch da 2.5, 4 porte da 2.5 e 2 da 10 G sfp, lo sfrutto in modalità default e lo utilizzo per collegare due computer che utilizzano la fibra da 2.5, al momento mai avuto problemi, su le porte lan ci sono due led il verde vi indica che state fruttando la massima banda che quella porta può offrivi cioè la 2.5, il giallo il resto, ce la possibilità di poterlo fissare al muro
