Works great and runs cool to the touch. I remember someone saying it ran hot, but it is cold to the touch. Got a VOIP phone, a computer, and a Lantronix print server plugged into it. No problems at all. I'm thinking about purchasing another one of these units for the other end of the building.

I ordered this unit to split one cable on my gigabit network to feed my PS3, for streaming, and my gaming PC. Unit is quiet and works fine, it runs cool. Only minor complaint is that the blinking lights indicating traffic are a bit bright and distracting. Overall a very good buy.

- Price at time of review(?

+ Small form factor

- Obnoxiously large power brick

The Hub was bought to replace an aging linksys hub that I had and works great. It has fast pass through bandwidth even when it's running at 100Mb which was what my old hub ran at but this device is about 10X faster. I cant explain why but it just works better.

We have a bunch of these deployed over an animation studio, wired with cat6. I wouldn't put more than 4 machine on a single cat6 line - I think the 8 port is probably too much traffic, but that's just gut-instict, so we decided to use more of the 5 ports to distribute the load.

it's a 5 port non-mananged switch. plug it in. it works(or not). I hope no one expects more or less. hard to review something that is like a light bulb. it either works or doesn't. this one worked as advertised.

Having bought 3 of these now. The nice metal case complete with 5 ports each providing gigabyte output is exceptional. Would recommend to anyone that needs a simple network switch.

Great value for money. It has replaced our router for networking our shop epos systems and pdq. Works much faster than the router and no drops outs causing crashes. It has speeded everything up nicely, discreet heavy duty metal casing, highly recommend.

Great strong product for the price. I really like the metal case

Great strong product for the price; I really like the metal case

No really down side

It's a switch. It works. It can comfortably manage full speed on all ports. It's a decent price. There are no frills, just solid build quality.
