Model: ES-1008P V2
from $85.49
Expand the network capacity for your home or small to medium sized business with the ES-1008P V2 8-Port 10/100 Mb/s PoE-Compliant Long-Range Unmanaged Switch from EDIMAX . This unmanaged switch features eight 10/100 Mb/s Fast Ethernet ports with eight PoE-complaint ports that can be manually configured using the integrated DIP switches. Setting the switches from "Standard" to "Extend" mode allows the 30W ports to transmit power to devices up to 656' away with a 10 Mb/s transfer speed, making it ideal for surveillance and other long-distance installations. The ES-1008P V2 has a total power budget of 130W in addition to a 1.6 Gb/s switching capacity and 0.14 Mpps forwarding rate, allowing you to operate a variety of devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, access points, and more. Other DIP switch controls include port-based VLAN isolation to help prevent camera multicast or broadcast storms from affecting each other, and 8021.p QoS support to prioritize voice and video traffic. Its compact and fanless design helps to ensure that the switch will operate quietly in your home or office.
For home use, a simple unmanaged Gigabit switch is all you need to expand your router's ports. Buy a managed switch or a switch with PoE only if you are running security cameras, access points, or complex VLAN setups. Available from $85.49.
Basic unmanaged network switches use negligible power and have zero maintenance costs. PoE (Power over Ethernet) and large managed switches use more electricity but are still relatively cheap to run.
Common Failure Modes
Switches are solid-state devices with high reliability. When they fail, it is usually due to lightning strikes/power surges blowing individual ports or the internal power supply dying.

Network switches are extremely reliable solid-state devices. They are usually replaced because networking speed standards outgrow them, rather than due to hardware failure.
