Cqenpr 19 Port PoE Switch, 16X10/100M Port PoE, 2 Gigabit Uplink, 1 SFP Slot, Unmanaged, Desktop/Rack-Mount, Plug&Play, 300W, 802.3af/at/bt, Metal case, PoE++60W High Power Output.

As other reviewers have indicated, this device is a boxy thing and has somewhat of a cheap appearance. That being said, its metal and solid. By what Ive seen its nice and durable. More importantly, it works. Its also gigabit PoE which is awesome, most of the PoE switches Ive seen are 100 mbps. This is a relatively inexpensive, unmanaged switch which you can easily set up and power your PoE devices with. Ive had no issues with it so far.

I tested this switch with two 8 megapixel security cameras running both at 15fps. I had no issues with the switch. It also provided power to the two cameras. I plan to use this for a full network of cameras and it looks like it will work just fine. The switch is super easy to use just plug it in with a standard computer power cord then plug in the back haul to your router then just plug in your POE cameras and your good to go.

Ive been using this for a couple months now powering 3 security cameras, and Ive had no problems. Technically, since there is no separate input port, this is only a 7 port switch. Im sure there are many other switches with this same feature, but you do need to plan ahead if you actually need to power and connect 8 devices. My 4 port Netgear PoE switch does have a dedicated input port so you can connect 4 devices. If you have 7 or fewer devices to feed, this looks like a good option.

Does exactly what I need it to do. Got a whole home security camera system setup thanks to this switch at an amazing cost

I have 3 kids doing virtual home school and had to set up internet in each of their rooms, I have a home office, surveillance cameras and my TV is also hooked up via ethernet. I needed a ethernet PoE switch with at least 6 plug in ports. Set this up in my attic to make sure the WiFi also reached cell and laptop range evenly throughout my home. Then I hooked up a direct ethernet connection to each location mentioned. Have not had any problems, works as advertised and gives out a good WiFi signal.

I am upgrading some of my security cameras and needed a satellite Power-over-Ethernet switch in my attic. This is an affordable PoE switch that supports 10/100/1000 Mbps connections as well as PoE on all eight ports. The maximum power on any given port is 30 watts (which is far more than any of my devices draw.) The switch fully supports the lEEE802.3af/at standard for Ethernet auto-speed detection and support of PoE. The switch has eight ports total, it does not have a dedicated uplink port. So if you are planning on connecting this switch to a main switch somewhere remember that you will need one of those ports to use for linking to that other switch. One neat thing you can do with PoE switches is to split the power using a PoE splitter on the remote end so you have a regular RJ-45 connector *and* a power connector. This is sort of the opposite of using a PoE injector if you dont have PoE switches. Keep in mind that all eight wires in a CAT 5e / CAT 6 cable need to be connected properly. Some cablers will only connect the wires necessary for Ethernet if they dont realize you are planning to use PoE. This is a good switch, follows industry standards, very easy to use, and affordably priced.

This unit was easy to install. Just plug it in and it works. This unit has (2) 1,000 Mbps, (8) 10/100 Mbps ports. I’m looking to share up to 1,000 Mbps on my network, but I should have read the description more closely. The max speed youll get on any of the 8 10/100Mbps ports is 100 Mbps. There are two ports labeled Uplink 1000Mbps, and in my testing, I found that if I connect one of those ports to the router and the other to the PC, I can get higher than 100Mbps on the PC. My test: Modem direct to PC: 280Mbps PoE Link 10/100Mbps to PC: 91Mbps Uplink 1000Mbps to PC: 280Mbps The label on the far right of the box says “8POE + 2G 10/100/1000 Mbps” but it should say “8 POE 10/100 Mbps + 2 1000 Mbps” When you look online at other brands, they say “10/100/1000Mbps Ports” which means that all the ports can go any of those speeds.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this switch. Its running four high definition PoE IP cameras and isnt blinking. For the price, its a great deal. Its very sturdy and quite a bit heavier than my other 8 port switches, which is only to be expected as theyre not injecting power. It seems very solidly made.

I got this Cqenpr 8 Port Full Gigabit Poe Switch to try and this is the 2nd unmanaged switch I got to review. I like this one much better. Here is my review. The good: - Reliable. I have not had any issue with it for over 1 weeks usage. - Easy to install. Just power on and connect it with the network cables. - 8 gigabyte ports were supported. - Price is reasonable.

We have quite an extensive home network. When we built the house 20 years ago we asked them to install conduit, instead of installing networking cables. This has been great as we have been able to easily keep up with new networking standards. This switch was our first experience with PoE. Up until now weve just never needed it. But now we are installing some security cameras that we wanted hard-wired and this means PoE. Now we havent installed it yet, but we have everything laid out on a test bench. All our cameras connected to the PoE switch and everything is working like a champ. We wanted to be sure to test all the cables etc. to make sure everything we planned on using would work before we ran the cables throughout the house. So far so good. Easy to setup, worked as expected first try.
