About TRENDnet 8-Port Gigabit GREENnet Switch
Overall Feedback:
89% positive
87% liked its broad compatibility, while 13% experienced compatibility issues
The switch is compatible with 5 volts and 5.5 x 2.1 mm barrel jack. I am using a spare USB-A port on the router to power it via a USB-A to 5.5 x 2.1 mm power cable instead of the A/C adapter.
The switch has a web interface for configuration and some security measures.
I can attach the device to a router and share one internet connection to other wired devices.
The switches were not fully compatible with Orbi.
82% praised for its easy management features
I have discovered that this switch has numerous management features such as link aggregation, port mirroring, IGMP snooping, RTSP and STP, loopback detection, auto-detects network vs. edge ports, QoS, etc. More information is available online in the user guide.
95% liked the flexible mounting options
I like the ability to throttle port speeds if needed.
91% praised for its fast network speeds
After upgrading the switch to 2.5Gbps from 1 Gbps, there is no longer a discernible performance difference between networks.
87% liked the quiet operation, but 13% found it too loud
The switch uses a 40 Gps backplane to ensure smooth traffic flow, which sets it apart from other similar switches.
I do not have any noise issues with the switch and it is just a nice quiet switch.
The status indicator on the front is green for any connection speed, not indicating LAN speed for each port.
82% liked the ample port count, but 18% needed more ports for their setup
I have not faced any issues with ports not autodetecting to 1000 Mbs with this switch. I can hard set the ports to 1000/Full if needed.
Port 4 is not passing any traffic and needs to be fixed.
The 8 port version of the switch cannot handle sustained 1 Gbps traffic even between two computers at a time.
86% appreciated the durable construction
The switch has a solid construction with a metal housing, mounting holes, and rubber feet on the bottom.
The switch feels well built, is compact and works in a plug and play manner.
The switch has been running flawlessly for a few weeks now, indicating its good construction quality.
The switch is compact, sturdy, solidly built and comes with an efficient power supply.
