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

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>

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

I bought this to fit in an outside gate controller box. The small size and decent output has allowed me to run a couple of cameras and a video doorbell out with only a single cable back into the house. I guess if youre looking at it you know the specs and benefits of the poe+ output.

Just perfect. I recently purchased some Access Points and a PoE Managed Switch and didnt want to use up uneccessary sockets. BOOM, enter the Netgear. I plugged this switch into the mains with the supplied power adaptor and plugged in my APs and PoE managed switch and VOILA, as if by magic, they were all alive and kicking. Uplink was from my main router (non-PoE) I mounted it under the stairs and it has lived there ever since, havent rebooted it once since installing. Now thats how you do it, well done Netgear :D

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.

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

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! ;)

This PoE switch is unmanaged, so there are no settings that reset to default creating IP address conflicts as occurs with the TP Link switches (dont buy these). After a power outage, this one immediately starts working again, providing power and network connectivity without any faff. And works perfectly the first time, right out of the box. And also costs less than the TP Link PoE router. Excellent for use with CCTV cameras and WiFi extenders.

Solid bit of kit backed up with good support from Netgear.

I used this to take an existing Cat 6 cable and convert into an upstream feed for a new Unifi CCTV system. Mounted in the loft, it acts as the hub for the cameras, that then route back to the main house switch. Being fanless is great, as its in the loft above bedrooms, and being wall mountable it is tidy too.
