TP-Link LS108GP 8 Port Full Gigabit PoE+ Switch, Network Switch, Power Saving, Plug & Play, Metal Case, Ethernet Switch, 802.3af/at 30W, 62W Total Budget, Ethernet Splitter, Silent Operation

Plug it in, push a cable into it, it starts working. It’s really that easy, setup the way it should be. If only everything else in life was like that. Great product, I am using it to install the new Ring doorbell with Power Over Ethernet, and it works seamlessly with no complicated setup procedures.

I originally kitted the house out with full Netgear PoE switches, such as 724s and 108s, and they ran the house beautifully for 5+ years. However, two 8-port switches and one 24-port non-green switches use about 60 watts, and even more if using PoE for cameras etc. That's the equivalent of leaving a lightbulb on day and night, which adds up over 5+ years. It adds double now that our energy utilities are scalping us on bills. So, I switched to these low-power switches. They basically just went in as drop-in replacements. No configuration required. Their ports auto-configured and everything just carried on working. I've gone from 60+Watts to about 8 watts. I've also put one of the switches on a timer because there's never anyone in one of the rooms from 11pm to 8am. I tried that with the older switches and they tended to get their knickers in a twist if you did it too often. So, on average over 24 hours the networking kit is now about 6-8 Watts instead of 50+Watts. So, doing the maths... ~50 Watts saved per hour, for 24 hours for 365 days a year is 50x24x365 = 438kWh per year. At 50p per kWh, that's £219 saved over the year, more than paying for the new kit in just 4 months in fact. In the 5 years I expect to run it, that's almost a grand if the price per kWh doesn't drop!!!! Very easy to install, very quick, very sleek and smart, and works flawlessly while saving a lot of money.

Worked well; still does, but will be going to another home as I've upgraded my network to faster speeds. It worked well for as long as I used it, and it never let me down once. Plug and play; no setup needed, just plug and go. Minimal power consumption, and it was as fast as the network, so it never caused anything to slow down.

Quite good littel switches for desktop use. Suited to most domestic or home-office needs, with all ports offering PoE at gigabit speeds.

Excellent quality. Good quality overall does the job

Been running this for several weeks now and it's not faltered once. It's a dream to setup (you literally just plug cables into it and power it up). It's metal so feels sturdy enough and you have some handy screw holes in the back if you wanted to mount it somewhere. The lights might be distracting.

Works perfectly without any issues.

This is a great piece of kit and did exactly what I needed! Our BT home hub only has 4 ethernet ports, and 1 is now used for full fibre. This gives us several extra ports to use for the TV, the PS4, Hive, Ring - the more devices connected by ethernet the better as it reduces the strain on the wifi. It's so quiet to the point where I questioned if it was turned on or not! The brackets on the back make it easy to hang on a wall which is what I did. It's smart looking as well. Great value for money and I'm most things TP-Link have served me well over the years.

ottimo prodotto ad un prezzo invitante. Molto facile da installare funziona benissimo. Consigliabile

Llego perfecto y funciona muy bien

Basic networking switch but perfect for home use, got the metal body version but even the plastic version would be fine. Would recommend!
