TP-Link LS105GP 5-Port Full Gigabit PoE+ Switch, Metal Network Switch | 4 x 30W PoE+ Ethernet Ports, 65W Total Budget, 250m Transmission, PoE Auto Recovery, Power Saving, Plug & Play

I bought this PoE switch to power a mesh / access point system in my home so I didn’t need separate power supplies for each unit. Instead of having power adapters everywhere, I can now run both power and data through a single network cable, which keeps everything much cleaner and easier to manage. The setup was incredibly simple – just plug it in and it works straight away. I have Ethernet cables running around 20 feet from the switch to the access points and there’s been absolutely no drop in signal or performance. It does exactly what it says on the tin. Solid, reliable and perfect if you need to power devices like access points, cameras or other PoE equipment without extra power supplies everywhere. Definitely a great little switch for a home network setup.

I recently built some ESP32 powered camera devices using POE ports - I purchased this PoE switch to act as the main hub for them and it works really well, my father picked one of these up for using the cameras on his Model Railway. Not much else to say beyond them doing exactly what they need to - so far been 100% reliable, four cameras streaming data across them with all of them consuming power for 48 hours straight over one weekend and no issues from the hub at all, very happy with the purchase.

This is a brilliant gadget that splits the Ethernet supply to other devices. I have a smart TV which allows me to watch iPlayers and YouTube etc. I then bought a YouView box and plugged into the TV and then suddenly realised that that needed access to the router too ... which was a problem because I only have one ethnet socket in the lounge. So I did a little research and this gadget appeared to split the supply, had great reviews and appeared such great value. If I'm honest, I really didn't know whether this would work, but decided to order anyway. The item was delivered very promptly, with Amazon's usual efficiency and I have to say, it works a treat! It's only the size of ... remember those old audio cassette boxes? ... well, about as big as one of those? (Kids, ask a grown up!) It comes with a power supply. That surprised me because I don't think he description makes this clear, although when I think about it, it's pretty obvious that it would have one. Oh yes, if you do order one of these, make sure you have Ethernet cable ... this doesn't come with any. Overall, a fab product which is so easy to set up and as I've said above, great value for money. Don't pay any more!

I needed a PoE switch for some IP cameras, replacing a noisier and much larger unit. All worked fine on the desk setup and then put it into use. I powered the switch prior to plugging in the ethernet back to the router, which assigns IP addresses. When you do this the switch defaults to a static IP address of 192.168.0.1, now this for many will be fine, for the other 50% of the universe this will be the same IP as their router. This will result in an IP conflict on the network and lots of problems, for me it meant about 65% packet loss and then 3 days of cursing my ISP (SKY) as being terrible blah blah blah, until I did an IP scan and saw 2 routers... So as long as you plug the ethernet cable before powering it up all good, or set a static IP from the web config so it is never a thing you will never experience this bit!

I have Cat6 boxes behind each TV and at my phone line input, all run to the garage. My ISP has provided me with a wireless hub which has the ASDL switch built in so it has to go at the front door and not in the garage where the other Cat 6 cables run... At present MOST of my devices are wireless however one room is too far away and has no signal yet I want a DLNA client there to stream movies to the TV. Therefore I needed some sort of hub or switch, initially tried an old wireless router with built in hub, that requrired disabling the wifi, then disabling DHCP, then changing its default IP as it clashed with my main router. When it was done it worked but kept disconnecting so purchased this instead! This was ideal as: 1, Its very small! really fits in well! 2, It looks well, i have it stuck to the wall in the garage, its profile and appearance blends in well. 3, It has NO DHCP this was very important, if you have an existing router and you just want to add some wired network capacity you usually dont want an additional DHCP server messing with your network! 4, Its fast enough to max out most domestic broadband connections, there are very few scenarios right now where realistically you can say this is not fast enough. 5, No setup, its plug and play 6, I searched here and other such websites, this was the best value switch I could find and very happy with it. Please note, dont be worried if you look in and see its not using all 8 pins, remember your broadband runs on a phone line which only uses 2!

Not a great deal to say. It’s a switch that does exactly what it’s supposed to. I’m using it to power a TP-Link outdoor access point on a Starlink satellite broadband system. Setup was completely plug-and-play—no configuration needed at all. The PoE works flawlessly, delivering power and data over a single cable, which made installation much cleaner and simpler than having a separate power supply. Build quality feels solid, it runs silently as expected with no noticeable heat issues. If you need a reliable, no-fuss PoE switch for a small setup, this is a great choice. Highly recommended!

My smart heating Internet bridge would not work with my new modem. This solved the problem straight away and not expensive.

Delivery n good time, well packaged, works a treat and very easy to install. Now have a Mac, Canon Pro 1000 printer, a wifi extender to my outbuilding and can live video link from my studio hardwired without swapping cables. So much faster than wifi to the same.

Generalnie sprzęt działa i jest mały. Według informacji udostępnia 5 portów i tutaj producent mija się trochę z prawdą, bo jeden port odpada na wejście, więc mamy tylko 4 porty na podłączenie urządzeń. Jakoś to przegapiłem. Byłem pewien że na tylnej ściance jest wejście sieciowe a na przedniej są wyjścia, ale nie. Jeżeli potrzebujesz 5 wyjść to ten sprzęt nie jest dla Ciebie.

Works well on standard speed nbn

Okay port, I will recommend getting a giga one for today as internet speed goes faster today

Very good and fast speed product, thanks Amazon and TP-Link.

Perfect for what I needed, happy with my purchase.
