5-Port Gigabit Industrial Ethernet Switch

Setup: - one non-POE port goes to 2nd switch - one non-POE port goes to Synology (4 port enclosure) I wanted to get all traffic coming into the switch from the cameras to go over the port connected directly to the Synology. There is no way to do this with the switch since there is no "smart" configurable routing capabilities with it. The solution i had was to give the Synology a direct route to the camera which works well. One port ip on the Synology is 192.168.0.7 Camera ip is 192.168.0.20 Run this on the Synology and the traffic will route over the .7 address to the .20 directly through the switch without causing traffic over the rest of the network: /sbin/ip route add 192.168.0.20 via 192.168.0.7 Switch is working well after a few weeks, I only have one camera plugged at the moment but no issues so far.

No frills PoE switch. As a switch it works like any other unmanaged gigabit switch. With regards to PoE it negotiates both 802.3af and 802.3at connection correctly but does not respect power negotiated power limits. This is both good and bad. The upside is any device can draw power up to the limit. The bad is it will not protect the powered device from faults. However, some devices are not fully complaint with power limits and rely on internal protection circuits. This means this switch is more tolerant/compatible with PoE devices; purchasing a high end switch may actually backfire as it will occasionally fault and reset your device. Port isolation is oddly marketed as VLAN and the switch is labeled extend. This is likely due shared naming scheme used throughout the product line. However, I can’t figure out why this necessary. Each label is unique and cannot be used for any other switch. Thus properly labeling each switch should not incur any additional cost. Maybe the mfg didn’t want to pay for additional english translation? Regardless the port isolation feature works. When enabled, ports 1-4 can only communicate with ports 5&6 but not each other. Useless for security purposes but useful for controlling multicast issues. For its cost there are more sophisticated (web managed and even L2 managed if you’re willing to go down to fast ethernet) options available with more total ports (same 4 PoE) but a much lower power budget. This makes this switch targeted for a much smaller niche. This switch would best be suited for IP cameras and wireless AP. Where as if you only run one or two of these devices and want a more multipurpose switch; there are better options.

I needed a dual power switch to insure I kept a backbone link up, as consumer-grade UPS (battery backup) had failed and did not pass AC through. It seemed to work fine and I proved it is passing data greater than 100Mb, so it does appear to be Gigabit, but all the link indicators are yellow, whether the link is 100Mb or gigabit. All the other gigabit switches I have used differentiate between green and yello/orange based on the link speed.

Appears to be excellent quality. Was very well packaged. Installed very easily, although I had some difficulty finding DIN rail for mounting. I ended up paying $16 for a 4 ft section and only needed 4 in. It would be nice if Mfr. included a 4 in. section in the package.

4 ports is not a lot. And while there are other options with more ports, I think the size is perfect for a small office that only has a couple POE access points. There are two uplink ports which will allow you to connect your internet and something else like an NVR. It's pretty small and compact, but does include rack mounting hardware if you really want to do that. Overall it's pretty good for the price.

The unit is plug and play. It is really well built and operates perfectly.

I have tested this switch and works as directed. I had questions on the extended signal and when I emailed with questions they responded very quickly.

Works Good for the price

Muy robusto, dimensiones reducidas. En mi caso, justo el número de puertos que necesitaba. Perfecto para mí.

Pour étendre un réseau dans un autre étage ,et pouvoir adapter une alimentation par accu ou batterie pour utilisation en audio ,bonne fabrication et qualité,ne chauffe pas .

Nel complesso, si tratta di un ottimo prodotto. Ovviamente non si può confrontare con dispositivi di brand blasonati dal costo decine di volte superiore, ma svolge egregiamente il suo compito. Nel mio caso, è stato installato all’interno di una macchina CNC per creare una sottorete che collega altre macchine simili nella stessa area. Preciso che l’alloggiamento è microclimatizzato, quindi non posso esprimermi con certezza sull’affidabilità in ambienti ad alte temperature tipici dell’uso industriale più spinto. Tuttavia, il dispositivo dà un’ottima impressione di solidità e accuratezza costruttiva, specialmente per quanto riguarda la dissipazione del calore. I componenti interni principali sono a diretto contatto con il case metallico, leggermente alettato, che funge da dissipatore passivo: una soluzione semplice ma efficace. Unico appunto — anche se lo considero più un “extra” che un difetto — riguarda l’alimentatore incluso nella confezione. È utile per test, ma non lo consiglierei per un uso continuativo in produzione. Questo switch è pensato per ambienti industriali, non per un utilizzo SOHO, dove si presuppone la disponibilità di un’alimentazione dedicata e stabile. Nel mio caso, è stato alimentato tramite un affidabile alimentatore switching Meanwell MDR-20-24 da barra DIN (24V 1A), assolutamente adeguato. Lo switch, tra l’altro, supporta nativamente il montaggio su barra DIN.

Este switch cumple con lo descrito en las especificaciones ademas lleva alimentador de corriente . Perfecto , buen producto y volveré a comprar.
