sorted byEthernet switches, HDMI switches, USB hubs and the like....
...they excite me. I feel like I must buy, buy, buy.
It says power 5V, 600mA but TP-link doesn't sell 5V powered 8port switches, only 9V so no option to power it from USB port
Assuming it uses a standard 2.1mm barrel type plug, for around £2 you can buy special USB cables from the likes of Aliexpress that will boost the voltage from 5v to 9v at around 700mA max current.
I was wondering the same. As far as I can see, the only difference is that TL-SG108S supports IGMP snooping while LS108G does not support it. To be honest, I doubt it makes any difference for small home networks.
Thank you for your honesty.
It's only when brave people like you come forward that the rest of us know we're not alone in this
My guess is that they’re trying to catch people when searching, especially since ‘hub’ and ‘splitter’ are potential search terms casuals might use when they actually need a switch.
Yes, that will work.
Thanks
Wired ethernet ports in most rooms, the virgin internet Hub in the loft and Wifi-Mesh around the house.
Is this device here what I need for connectivity to all rooms from the Wifi-Mesh, that now acts as the router?
(Also, if any of you knowledgeable lot think I've forgotten anything re: media-based wiring before plastering up, please let me know so far sorted; TV cable, Ethernet cable, considering HDMI (floor to TV mount position)) (edited)
You don't need chunky cat6 for it at all.
It's only 1gbe so literally any cheapest cable wil work.
Thanks. I'll be dropping the cables through the weeks so was thinking to put cat6 in to future proof it really.
Terrestrial tv cable? I'm not sure it's the best approach to feed the rooms ethernet from the mesh unless the mesh is linked by ethernet rather than wi-fi (edited)
For a future proving you really want to use at least fully shielded cat6a or cat7.
Yet, future is uncertain as 10gbe rj45 equipment costs a fortune, especially switches. Even 2.5gbe is overpriced and yet just enough to cover speed of 3.5" hard drive but to slow already just for SSD.
Optics could be taking a lead or maybe we gonna see something completely new.
There is no really fast fairly affordable domestic Ethernet option at the moment.
The end... of my moaning session. (edited)
Digital, will include terrestrial.
Okay, so you suggest the following:
