from $56.49
The Shelly LAN Switch is a compact 5-port wired network switch designed for reliable connectivity in industrial and residential settings. This fanless, DIN-mountable device supports fast Ethernet speeds up to 10/100 Mbps across all ports, making it ideal for connecting multiple networked devices in space-constrained environments like control cabinets, server rooms, or automation systems. With plug-and-play operation and energy-saving design, it requires no configuration and minimal power consumption, while the fanless construction ensures silent, maintenance-free operation. The black finish and DIN-rail mounting capability make it well-suited for professional installations. Backed by a 1-year warranty and a 90-day return window, this switch offers a straightforward solution for expanding network capacity where you need it.
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 $56.49.
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.
