It works fine, I have the same under a different name in my rack.
I don’t think it’s that far-fetched. Plus, it’s amazon. You can return it if you’re not happy with it
There was even cheaper options linked in this sub yesterday… including ones with 10G uplinks, and 8x 2.5G ports.
Dont do it. Its a chinaman switch.
The other option is Chinaman with an American sticker?
TAA Compliant Switch only.
when you get to the big leagues, you clowns will see why TAA Compliance is important.
idk man 2.5G always felt like HD-DVD. Gotta go blu-ray, man
I mean I think 2.5g is just becoming the new 1g. my last two motherboards have had 2.5g, Nas hardware is coming with 2.5g standard now, the last usb ethernet dongle I got for my laptop I got 2.5g for a few quid extra. At that point all I need is a switch and I have a free network upgrade. But I do agree with you - if 1g is too slow, more than likely 2.5g is as well, so it’s straight to 10g and beyond.
I have a 10Gb connection but for the moment I will run 2.5Gb for all devices.
I will migrated to 10Gb when switches are around $100.
Im going laser disk for my network!
You want us to move to a proprietary solution? Smh
I see you gave us the price you’d tell your SO you paid. $130 is not quite $100
i own a couple of the cheap random brands like this
i think my last unmanaged 6 RJ45 port one with 2.5gb poe and 2 SFP+ 10G ports cot $90 (USD) in sept.
They are great value for money, so are the managed ones. I used it for a dedicates network for a ceph cluster (its sort of hidden in this shot on the rack shelf to the left of the ubiquiti POE switch https://gist.github.com/scyto/76e94832927a89d977ea989da157e9dc
Chipsets are now commodity…
For when you want black and orange, but can’t afford Aruba.
if you’re going to buy a no name switch, at least get a better one… https://www.amazon.com/TEROW-2-5G-POE-Multi-Speed-Compatible/dp/B0CGDF35P1
Why that’s better?
it’s €73 instead of €128.
As of the last 5ish months or so yes!
You’re clearly not in the market scavenging, this is nothing impressive… Maybe if it was managed for the $100 then …
Hi, saw this on my feed and noticed that i bought this exact switch 4 weeks ago. saddly it suddenly died a week ago. poe and networking was dead, only one led was still on. Return to amazon was flawless as usual. I dont know if it was bad luck or a general Problem. The switch was operating in a room temperature Environment and delivered about 30W of poe 24/7 to 3 access points with 2,5g and one uplink to my switch but only over 2.5g not sfp+. Until it died the switch worked perfectly fine. Maybe this helps one or another on a purchase decission.
Holding out for managed ones coming in the new year.
Should be legit. I ordered the same one a couple of days ago. Still have to test it out
