Decent 8 port 1Gbps switch, pretty good price which appears to be for everyone, not just Amazon Prime members.
Cheers Trevor - heat added - just what I needed.
I was thinking of a Poe switch too.. but I cannot figure out why I would need one?! Aside from extending the range on some poe devices, are there any other reasons for them? Sorry if it's obvious haha
From what I've read; the GS108 (Marketed at businesses) has a lifetime warranty, the GS308 (Marketed for home and office use) only comes with a 2 year warranty, also, the GS308’s ethernet ports are plastic instead of metal, and suggested it be in a cooled environment.
I personally want them so I can use a single network cable to both power and communicate with CCTV cameras and wireless access points.
Does away with all the transformer clutter too, much neater.
I believe things like raspberry pi can utilise the power too if you wanted a devices behind a wall mounted TV for example.

I suspect this switch will have the same issue.
The semi-managed gs108e doesn't seem to offer a great deal of advantages over the un-managed version
However, they are great switches for the price and good in a home environment.
Yes I'm aware that.
Most decent routers can do vlans anyway so a dumb switch is fine for the majority of people.
