NETGEAR 5 Port PoE Switch GS305P | Network Switch | Ethernet Splitter | 4 x PoE @ 55W | Desktop or Wall Mount

PoE powers suitable cameras and the switch keeps the HD streams off the main network so avoids clogging the wifi.

its really helpful for the job, i got it for CCTV cameras. really good and reliable

Arrived new in the box, plugged it in and it does not power up at all. Tried to get a replacement or refund but nothing. Returns page doesn’t work and Amazon don’t help either. DO NOT BUY FROM THESE!

Turns out this hub doesnt support all POE devices - you would need a different model for that. I was unable to get it to power a TP-Link TA-WA801n wifi extender because, according to poat by a netgear tech on their support forum, it operates off a different standard. Another netgear poe hub called GS305PP is needed for that, i.e the same model number as this one but with an extra P on the end. <sigh>

Perfect for basic home poe network Plug and play and silent

Powering an IP security camera and works well. Very straight forward to set up.

Simple unmanaged POE switch which is exactly what I wanted to power a Cisco Access point and some Swann security cameras. Just out the box, Plug & Play.

I purchased this to power two Ring Elite cameras mounted in my garage, to reduce power sockets and uplink to a Netgear mesh AP, as its an unmanaged switch, it worked just by Plug and Play. its passively cooled and wall mountable, and has a metal case that will be familiar to long term users of Netgear switches Not sure why there is a need to dumb down the description by calling it an ethernet splitter that phrase is just incorrect on so many levels! ;)

The Netgear GS305 is ideal for Homeworking, literally plug and play up to 4 devices. I would recommend for home and office use.

Poe network switch that does the job
