Fast, Reliable, and Easy to Set Up!
I’m really impressed with this 6-port 10Gb Ethernet switch! Setup was completely plug-and-play — no configuration needed. The build quality feels solid and professional, and the performance has been excellent. All my devices are getting consistent, high-speed connections with zero dropouts or lag. The 2.5G ports are perfect for my home network upgrades, and file transfers are noticeably faster now. It runs cool and quiet too, which is a big plus. Great value for the price — highly recommend for anyone looking to boost their wired network speed and stability.

Blazing fast, whisper quiet, and worth every penny
I bought this GiGaPlus 10-port unmanaged switch to upgrade my home network, and it absolutely exceeded expectations. Between the 8× 2.5GbE ports and the 2× 10G SFP+ ports, this thing is a total workhorse—and it does it all silently. Setup was genuinely plug-and-play. No config, no nonsense. I used 10GBASE-T SFP+ modules for these switches in each room, back to the 10Gbps switch in my network rack, and everything flies. It’s the kind of upgrade you feel right away if you're hitting any throughput limits—downloads are faster, latency drops, and nothing is bottlenecked anymore. The fanless metal chassis stays cool even under full load, and the build quality feels solid—this doesn’t feel like a budget switch, even though the price is fantastic for a multi-gig unit with SFP+ uplinks. If you’ve got WiFi 6 gear, a fast NAS, or even just a few devices that support 2.5GbE, this switch is absolutely worth it. No noise, no drama—just pure, stable performance. Highly recommended. I’d buy another in a heartbeat.

Reliable, Quiet, and Clean
This 10-port 2.5Gb Ethernet switch from GiGaPlus has been working well in my setup. I’m currently using it to connect multiple micro PCs, two NAS devices, and an Asus router, and everything communicates smoothly. While I haven’t run formal speed tests, data transfer and access speeds feel solid, and there have been no bottlenecks I can attribute to the switch itself. The fanless design is a big plus, it stays quiet even under constant use. Build quality is clean, the device looks great, and the LED indicators are uniform and clear without being overly bright or distracting. I also appreciate the inclusion of 2x 10G SFP+ uplink ports, which future-proofs it a bit for higher-speed backbone links.

Nice product
Seems well built and up to the task. I use both the 2.5G ports and the SFP+. My only complaint is after purchasing two of these that neither one came with mounting hardware and finding a screw with a small enough head to fit in the cross style mount can be a challenge. They don’t have a standard keyhole style mounting configuration.

Failed after 7 months of light use - support/customer service is worse than nonexistent
UPDATE3: Seems the seller's offer to help remediate the situation was empty - looking at it now it almost reads like it was an automated response to a poor review. I responded back accepting their offer, a day later the message thread was closed - no response or action from the seller in over a week (their solution should have been a couple days at best and if not at least acknowledgement of the situation). To be clear, I did not expect any sort of remediation - the brand has no website and apparently no customer service/support staff. I purchased the device under the assumption that it was "as-is" and without warranty. So if the seller never bothered to contact me things would have been fine; however, it's far worse to offer the customer support then disappear. Better to remain silent and let people think you don't exist then to ghost them and prove you don't care. Buyer beware, devices by the company should truly be treated "as-is without support or warranty" because in effect that's exactly what it is. If you are willing to accept that and find a good price, sure take a chance - but chances are you will be giving your money to them. My advice, find a different brand. Maybe with one of the other clones out there (look carefully there's lots of device with nearly identical specs to this - there's only so many switch chips on the market, especially at a given price point). It's a shame really, I chose this one due to good reviews by a reputable 3rd party. Oh well. UPDATE 2: The seller reached out after seeing this review to remediate the situation. I appreciate their offer, I just wish there was a way to reach them independently of these reviews. UPDATE 1: After deeper inspection I can see nothing physically wrong - the failure of the ports appears to be entirely within the switch's logic chips. In my case I have revision 1.2 of the GP-S25-0802 model (S25G1210FP-N-V1.2). Looking back at the reviews that helped inform this purchase I see they were testing version 1.1 of the switch - not sure what changed but it wasn't for the better. ORIGINAL POST: After 7 months of light use (mainly the SFP+ ports and a couple of the 2.5Gbe ports - low traffic) the SPF+ ports have failed. While it worked, it worked alright. It was a bit fussy with which optics it accepted in the SPF+ cages and one was a tight fit (looked slightly bent) but all that was normal/expected (it's common for SFP+ cages to be picky about which optics are used). The copper ports worked well - nothing note worthy there. Speeds were as expected right up until the sudden failure. Anyway, now I have a paper weight and need to find another brand with comparable features (I need the dual SFP+ cages + with at least 8x 2.5Gbe ports in as small a formfactor as I can find - not many options...) I wanted to like the product but the quality just isn't there.

Works great no issues at all with the switch itself
I have bought a few of these 8+2SPF port 2.5Gb switches and they work fantastic. Never had an issue. However, I received another one today and it was clearly and opened mixed/used items sold as new. Contacted amazon and they refunded the purchase price via a gift card. Great service and will order another one soon. only deducted one star due to receiving a used item

Just works
I used a 10 gig rj45 adapter on this guy. Haven't done any speed test, but everything plugged into it worked without isue.

You can not beat this for bang for the buck.
So far so good. I have used it for about 3 weeks and it has been very reliable. You can not beat this for bang for the buck. Try to find a name brand 24 port 2.5 Gbps switch in this price range. I also bought two SFP 10 Gbps adapters are those ports work great at 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps. I will report back if I have problems but smooth sailing so far.

Prefiero cable allí donde se pueda y WiFi donde no, por lo que lo he usado este conmutador para cablear todas las tomas del piso a 2.5GbE desde una conexión a internet de Fibra 10G PRO Digi. Y es una auténtica gozada poder obtener caudal de 2.5GbE en los PCs modernos con esa velocidad. Para el MiniPC nuevo que incluye 2x2.5GbE le puse también un adaptador de USB4 a ethernet 10GbE y así desde él puedo usar todo el caudal de internet. Para el MacBook (que no lleva toma de red) le puse un adaptador de USB a Ethernet 2.5GbE y listos. Los dispositivos de 1GbE no sacan partido, pero las rosetas ya están preparadas para 2.5GbE. Como tengo todo cableado por RJ45 también tuve que comprar un pack de 2 SFP+ de 10GbE para convertir sus 2 tomas en RJ45 y ahí conectar el router de Digi y en el otro el adaptador USB4 de ethernet 10GbE para el MiniPC. De momento funciona muy bien y ciertamente a un precio muy comedido.

J’ai acheté ce switch pour mettre en place mon réseau entre mon NAS et mon PC en 10 Gb, et il fait exactement ce qu’il faut, sans complication. Les 4 ports 2.5G Base-T sont parfaits pour les appareils classiques (PC, dock, box, AP, etc.), et les 2 ports SFP+ permettent de monter facilement un lien 10 Gb avec un module ou un DAC adapté. Le switch est non géré, mais c’est justement ce qui le rend simple : on branche, tout se synchronise automatiquement, et ça fonctionne immédiatement. Aucune configuration, aucun menu compliqué, tout est plug-and-play. Idéal pour un réseau maison ou un setup semi-pro. La stabilité est excellente : aucun drop, aucun freeze, même en charge avec des transferts très lourds entre le NAS et le PC. Les débits sont constants, et le passage du 2.5G au 10G via les ports SFP+ se fait sans souci. Pour un usage multimédia, backup, montage vidéo sur NAS ou gros transferts, c’est vraiment parfait. La construction est propre, le boîtier ne chauffe pas excessivement, et le switch reste silencieux — très appréciable dans un bureau ou à côté d’un NAS. En résumé : un excellent choix si vous voulez monter un réseau 10 Gb fiable et simple à la maison. Super rapport qualité-prix, idéal pour centraliser NAS, PC et équipements en 2.5G et 10G sans se compliquer la vie.

Installation on ne peut plus simple. J’ai remplacé mon ethernet switch vieux de 15 ans et ai multiplié mes vitesses internet en download et upload par un facteur de x3. Ma nouvelle limite sont mes points d’accès (5) à 200 M/s, ce qui me va très bien.

good switch, works well so far. Although 10Gb would probably be better for my network (unfortunately the price for 10Gb is somewhat prohibitive) .
