In Switches

works perfectly clean design QoS Simply put, it's a solid switch on every level.

- The is a small switch, so it can be set up or mounted practically anywhere. - Low power usage, and it seems to stay cool, unlike some switches I have used. - 5 Year warranty. - Solid construction - this switch has good weight and the case is metal. It feels like it would hold up well. - Supports a wide range of standards, such as QoS, flow control, 10/100/1000M and IGMP snooping functions. - Mountable - Didn’t have to use support, but says you get 24/7 support from TP-Link. I’ve used several other products from them and haven’t had any issues. - Easy setup – no need to worry about which port is your uplink. Just plug them in.

No setup, just connect all device and ... that`s it!

Provides power Looks Good Feels Solid

- Easy to set up, just plug and play. - Works perfectly without affecting speed.

- Solid build quality. Steel housing. - PoE standard is 802.3af (too bad not 802.3at PoE+) and delivers 55W across 4 ports. For a business solution, maybe you'd need more, but for an 8-port switch it is pretty good. PoE does have port priority and overload arrangement. - Managed switch, L2 switching features: Link Aggregation, Port Mirroring and VLANs. - Fanless design. - Seems to power my UniFi UAP-AC-PRO with no problems. - So far so good, excellent performance on my Gigabit network. Transfer speeds are saturating at ~1Gbps.

Well constructed, high quality components, low power use, runs cool, is reliable, and fast. I had a bad experience with tp-link in the past, but this really changed my mind about it. The unit is sturdy and solid on the outside, and it runs as well as it is built. I would say this is as good as or better than similar netgear or dlink swithes.

In my professional IT capacity I make a HUGE part of my living around PoE equipment and am proudly a very good judge of good equipment or junk. Nothing is more infuriating than having a customer procure their own PoE equipment instead of my recommendation because the prices put them out, and then I have to explain them them that 3 watts per port is not going to drive a 2" CCD and 50 IR emitters in each camera. It also often catches people off guard to discover that most PoE switches only have half of the ports powered. With rare exception, this is the industry standard. Don't knock an egg off. Get over it and design your network accordingly. Enough ranting about cheapskate customers and uninformed newegg reviewers. TP-Link is actually a very mature company that has been a market leader in Asia, Europe, and S. America for years and years. Their efforts to enter the US market and make headway the last few years have been valiant and fruitful. The TL-SG1008P is a great example of this. I tested the TL-SG1008P with Arecont MegaView 2MP bullet cameras tied to a custom-built NVR and did not see a single hiccup in data transfer or power delivery (rated at 15.4W per port or 53W total). The cameras ran continuously, day and night (that includes in the dark with the emitters on and sucking max juice) without a hitch. I then connected Cisco IP phones. While the power demand was lower, the data configuration was more complicated. The phones tag their packets for VLAN use, then are collected in a managed switch where the VLAN tags are removed and they are funneled to the port where the IP phone host interface is connected. Some unmanaged switches will decide to get "clever" with tagged packets, mistaking them for malformed or bad packets, and drop them. Although this is rare, it can pose a real problem when it occurs. No sign of such here. Cheap switches universally have plastic cases. A PoE switch can't be built this way, as the metal case is needed for heat dissipation. Under heavy load it did get pretty hot, but never what felt like a danger zone.

- Full 2.5gbps speed on all ports! - It does the job without any compromise. I've saturated the 2.5gb ports many times and it performs well.

Works as advertised and had no issues with autonegotiating speeds on interfaces with Google Fiber's provided equipment (an issue I had read about in reviews for other boxes which I was concerned about). Get full speed.

The switch has a very heavy and quality feel to it. POE+ works great with my cameras, and wireless access points.
