I bought this unit to use with my POE cameras and it worked great. The only down side is you can't configure which ports have POE on or off. Best POE switch I have found for the money.

Ease of use

Lack of configuration

Easy to setup and provides plenty of PoE power. I had one fail after a severe power surge, so putting it on a power filter is a good idea. I didn't check throughput, but for powering up to four PoE Ethernet devices this is great.

I used this switch to network 4 hikvision IP cameras, it lasted 13 days. POE is still working but no network connectivity. port lights flash on power up but not when Ethernet connections are made. For what it cost it's not worth the investment in time to deal with customer service. live and learn.

nice power supply and rigid construction

unreliable for me

I purchased this POE switch for camera work. Based on the specs. it should have had no problem. The output per channel on the switch was 15 watts. My camera max draws 7.5 watts. The camera would not turn on and the switch indicated that the camera had a short, not true.

I use this with three POE VoIP desktop phones from three different manufacturers. On all three phones, you can hear noise on the audio from the POE switching regulator. This is very disappointing.

Roughly two weeks ago we reviewed an 8 port 10/100Mbps PoE switch by TRENDnet, the TPE-S44 which is basically the ideal solution for people who want a cost-effective switch with the ability to power their IP Cameras via power over Ethernet.

good quality i use dlink and digisol also - digisol ports are in two lines and indicators also in back side for rack mounting ok but desktop not convenient - dlink and TP link are same as per look and quality -Tplink box size is little bit large but quality is good

Great POE switch at a great price.

Nice, compact no config required. The ability to config ports would have been nice but it served a purpose. I used the 4 POE ports to power wireless APs.
