MS108EUP

I use with my ip cameras and access point. Hasn’t failed me yet and is easy to configure.

I run a Home-Lab that includes 2 of these little PoE switches. Working in an Enterprise IT environment, I would often forget that these smaller residential/hobby switches exist, but gosh to I love them. Not only are they cute, but they provide that enterprise level functionality with PoE. This means it could be used to wire up a PoE security camera system, handling both your network connection and power in one cable! Minus the countless other applications of PoE, this switch provides ample value for what you're paying. The build quality even on a switch this small is great! Feels heavy and sturdy but could honestly be held up by a number of command strips (Please... don't do that though!!!). I haven't noticed any problems with my unit getting too hot or needing anything special to operate as intended. All 8 ports work as expected and the throughput is, in fact, Gigabit as advertised. So no problems there. If you are looking for something consolidated but powerful, this could be for you!

Excellent reliable ethernet switch purchased for the ability of optical connection. Switch has worked as expected with no issues. I haven't used the PoE function, but they can be turned off via the web UI. I use both the RJ45 and the optical connection for music streaming. This has been very reliable since installed.

Works flawlessly. Super easy install with plug and play (and forget it) installation. Speeds are more than adequate for networked POE security cameras.

Solid construction, looks like a sleek version of CISCO pro-grade routers and switches. Unboxing, there is no instruction pamphlet, or "Switch Discovery Tool," and the power supply is very dusty -- not preteen and new looking. I wiped the PS down with a damp cloth, and it looks fairly new, as I expected. The switch itself is sealed and appears to be new. I'm not sure what I have here, but I'm going to attempt the installation and let you know in a follow-up message. Update: Switch is up and running for days now—all good! I feel like it has improved the performance of my whole network—love it. Can’t explain why it arrived with a dusty, less than pristine power supply and no instructions.

Worked great to power my Unifi wireless access point. Used it to not only connect that device, but also to connect my wired home network to my router. Have it connected inside my networking box in my utility room. Nothing to setup. Just plug in the devices. There are specific ports to use for powered devices, but the instructions state that. This is one device where you want to read the instructions in my opinion.

I read many, many reviews here on Amazon and the web about sending power through RJ45 to BNC cameras ( I don't have IP cameras yet ), so I started with the NETGEAR 8 Port PoE Gigabit Ethernet Easy Smart Managed Essentials Switch (GS308EP) - with 8 x PoE+ @ 62W ( ASIN B08MBFLMDC ) since I only have 4 cameras and 1 camera is PTZ ( when I get IP cameras I am already set to manage the power, QoS, VLAN, etc with the switch ). I purchased 5 pairs Passive PoE Injector and PoE Splitter Kit with 5.5x2.1 mm DC Connector RJ45 Power Over Ethernet. I have a NETGEAR GS308 5 port switch which will provide communication to the GS308EP switch so I can access the admin page. With all that and reading the reviews, unfortunately I could not get it to work. No power being sent to the cameras and the question of WHY. I continued researching the WHY until I found from NETGEAR that in order for the GS308EP switch to communicate and be able to manage the power to the cameras the splitters had to be 802.3af/at compliant, if not the baluns WILL NOT work, and that I needed ACTIVE baluns, NOT passive like the first 5 pairs I purchased. I did find and watched a video "How to Install AHD CCTV Cameras using POE switch as Power Source" that helped me understand about the active baluns. I then purchased a 4-Pack Active PoE to 2.1mm DC - IEEE 802.3af/at compliant. I could not be more happier when I received the ACTIVE baluns and connected them cause everything was set, I was just waiting on the ACTIVE baluns. The ACTIVE baluns are the ones that worked for me with the setup mentioned above and I hope it helps other people out there that have basic knowledge, because there is no single page on the internet that provides you a solution, you have to dig and read many, many pages to do trial and error until it works. I love Netgear products and still have ( of course not connected ) a Netgear Internet Gateway Router with a built-in 4-port 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch model RT314. Netgear is build with TRUST in mind. Thanks

Switch is awesome. It Manages itself. Good price too. It's very quiet, small

I needed PoE and Gigabit Ethernet but otherwise didn't need to much sophistication. This worked perfectly for two video cameras for the video streaming, power and PTZ, all over Ethernet. Maybe the ones that cost 4 times the cost of this offer something - but whatever they offer isn't something I need! This works great.

El equipo superó mis expectativas, de muy buen calidad y buen precio

Switch ist nicht mal 1 Jahr alt und schon defekt

Fácil de administrar, interfaz amigable.

No issues with the switch itself, but the external PSU failed after about 3 months. Replaced the PSU and all working again..
