NETGEAR 16-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged PoE Switch (GS116PP) - with 16 x PoE+ @ 183W, Desktop/Rackmount, and ProSAFE Lifetime Protection

I know people tend to read and write these elaborate long reviews, and while sure, they're often useful, the whole point of an *unmanaged* switch is that it be completely simple plug and play. This is. I've wired two full houses with these and never had an issue at all.Some general notes:- Works very well with the Ubiquiti WAPs, but get the EdgeRouter X, as the system just does not want to play nice with all routers.- PoE does a completely sufficient job powering the above access points.- Chaining switches, even different brands, pretty much no big deal. I wouldn't chain more than 3, but I have this feed my office which has a 4-port to some fairly high traffic computers and it's never been an issue.

I had an earlier port switch, which was the bottleneck of my internet speed. This one immediately increased my speed to what I was promised by the internet provider. HUGE power supply, which had to be hung separately. Otherwise, easy quick installation.

high speed, easy to hook up, brought this to network my stuff in the house that has ethernet ports to feee up my wi-fi can stream of roku on ethernet 6 six into this switch with no issues

This unmanaged switch links together all home network "things". POE for those cameras and IOT things that need it. Has been running like a champ now for well over two years and requires no adjustment.

I got this for my security cameras. I have 20 cameras that I eventually wanted to connect.The cameras were low power basic models that do not require a POE+, but I got it in case I may buy a Pan Tilt Zoom power demanding camera.I first had 4 cameras, and all was good, then added a few more, and it was OK. After about 9 or 10 cameras this switch which is supposed to be 180+watts(the model I purchased) was just dropping connections way too often. Of course at first I thought it was the wiring or the cameras, etc. And one of the ports just did not work at all. SO I really had 15 ports minus one to connect to the router.So 14ports and dropping. I called AMazon and they gave me credit rather than return it, as at this time I didn't know the connections were being dropped due to the switch. SO I had a number of more cameras to add, and with this experience I purchased a BV 10port switch. It came a day late! But I too the load off the Netgear and everything is working fine, other than the one port still dead.But this goes to show you that after about 9 or 10 cameras, this 16port switch is maxed out!Not worth the cost if you need all, and certainly not cool to have a bad port.
