TP-Link TL-SG105E Managed 5-Port Gigabit Network Switch, 5x 10/100MbpsPorts, High Power Ethernet Splitter, Support QoS VLAN IGMP Snooping, Silent Operation, Traffic Port Prioritization

This little switch is an absolute networking ninja. Out of the box, it just works — no nonsense, no fiddling, no firmware drama. Plugged it into both a Mac and a Windows PC, and boom: instant link, blazing performance, and zero compatibility weirdness.The 2.5GbE speeds are rock solid. Transfers are buttery smooth, latency is negligible, and it chews through high-bandwidth tasks without breaking a sweat. It runs cool and quiet, even when it’s fully loaded.If a device doesn’t support 2.5GbE, the switch gracefully drops to 1Gbps (T1000) without a hitch. No disconnects, no drops

his is a great network switch and performs flawlessly. Just connect it up and forget about it.

A bit to big if not is 5*

This switch is very easy to use. It feels quality and has some comfort in its weight.The connectivity speeds and solid and serves a number of devices with no issues.Recommended.

A very reliable unmanaged 2.5G ethernet switch. It has a well built metal case that stays cool without fans. Power usage is minimal. It came at a friendly price on an Amazon deal. Recommended

Bought this alongside a 2.5Gbe PCIe card as we've upgraded our FTTP to 1.6Gbps and wanted full bandwidth available to the main pc. Install was as simple as swapping out the old 1Gb Netgear and popping this in its place and everything negotiated correctly (including a 10/100 device).Some reviews mentioned getting an EU power adapter so I took a gamble but mine came with a UK plug and looks to be UK stock based on the packaging so all happy here.

Having read other reviews citing a lack of web GUI for the management of these switches I went ahead and bought them anyway as they were so cheap and I needed them only for basic VLAN configuration; even if the idea of installing management software is repulsive. However, upon receiving the two I ordered, I found them to not only have a web GUI, but one that, unlike most web GUI managed switches, is fast, responsive, sensible and very easy to use.I personally have an aversion for TP-Link products as they tend to be of very poor quality, but these switches have impressed me enormously and I expect they will become my go to when looking for simple VLAN aware switches as they are very well priced, extremely pleasant to configure and well built. Having used a number of small cheap switches from competing manufacturers, such as HP, Netgear, D-Link, Cisco SMB and Mikrotik, I can sincerely say that this is the first time in many years I have been so pleasantly surprised with a cheap managed switch.

Good piece of kit
