Not to bash on the seller, they did a great job and I would buy again for sure but the product is not what I expcted. It is also my fault for not checking further, but it does not run the typical IOS and is not really that good for a modern lab setup. This runs CatOS 9.0 and lacks a lot of basic commands needed in my case. I would look else where for a lab switch, unless you know what youre getting into. I cannot bash the product for not looking though. It is what it says it is for sure.
Our home is fully wired with Cat5 outlets and this replaced the aging switch we had been using since the house was built 5 years ago. This switch is working as expected in our home now and doing a great job. For the price this can be acquired it's almost a no-brainer decision. Throughput on this switch easily covers our 5 computers, DirecTV and wireless cell phone connections. The joy of not having to reboot cheap switches ever week is MORE than worth the cost of this switch.
The Cisco Switch is outdated and I would not recommend using it for a lab environment. If you do not have the password for the console you will never get into the administrative options that were originally offered with this switch. Sure it will work but you will be unable to custom configure the switch.
Works great for what I need it for. We currently have three at our business and we run only 15 computers, so there's a lot of empty jacks, but they look awesome on the server rack
Fast shipping, Item was as described very happy. customer answered all my questions. Wish he had a ftp server to download images from
