Product reviewsTP-LINK TL-SF1005D 5-Port Desktop Switch - White

great value product

very cheap and it does the work exactly as mentioned. Just plug it in connect the live router cable to it and use all the remaining ports for anything where you need an ethernet port

Great little unit

There are times when a lot of modern switches are to clever blocking broadcast packets between your devices by default. When using ArtNet this can be the only option available. Also when debuging networks its good to be able to sniff the traffic on a connection.Read full review...

TP Link 5 Port Switch

I bought this to replace one that had failed. It was not the same as the one that failed; it is a smaller, white plastic job. My fault for not paying close attention. I was looking for a TL-SF1005D - this is not it. This has LS1005 on the box. It has an external power supply, as per the failed one. However, it does the same job and have used it to replace another one that I cannot see. I am a little concerned about the stress 3 round network cables are putting on it and may replace those with flat cables that are more flexible also use a colour one for the input (socket on wall) and grey for outgoing. 3 year warranty is says on the box so made a note in the calendar on the PC, along with a copy of the order, on the day it expires. I should have written the purchase date on the item.
I have been advised that TP Link equipment does not last long. I have only had one of these switches fail so I am quite happy to use another TP Link device.Read full review...

Does exactly what it’s supposed to do!

Plug and play, to run two X-Box’s and two PC’s on a single RJ45 cable from the Hub, working perfect since installed. data transfer indicators give visual identification of operation.

This was smaller than I thought, but is well built and sturdy.

I currently us this ETHERNET SWITCH for the Smart TV and the Sky Box, and there is no significant change, some of the apps on the Smart TV are a little slower to start up, but there is no change in actual quality once they have booted up, such as with Netflix or Amazon Prime TV. There is No change at all to the Sky box.Read full review...
