Model: DS-3E0510P-E
from $89.95
The Hikvision DS-3E0510P-E is an 8-Port Gigabit PoE-Compliant Unmanaged Network Switch designed for reliable network expansion. It features eight Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports, each capable of delivering up to 30W (802.3at), with an additional Gigabit Ethernet WAN port and an SFP Gigabit Ethernet port for versatile connectivity. With a total PoE power budget of 110W and a robust metal construction, this switch is well-suited for powering and connecting multiple PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points in small to medium-sized network environments.
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 $89.95.
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.
