8 Port 10G Ethernet Switch Unmanaged, 8X 10G RJ45 Ports Support 10G/5G/2.5G/1000M/100M Auto-Negotiation, 160Gbps Switching Capacity, Desketop or Rackmountable Plug and Play Network Switch

This 6-Port 2.5G switch is exactly what I was looking for! It has 4 x 2.5GBASE-T ports and 2 x 10GBASE-T SFP slots, and it's completely plug-and-play. No setup headaches at all. I'm using it with a fiber ISP that supports 2.5G speeds, and it’s working great so far. Speeds are way better than standard 1G, and I didn’t have to shell out for one of those overpriced 5G switches.Heads up though – to really get the most out of it, you’ll need a PC with either a built-in 2.5/5G NIC (which is rare) or grab a 2.5G PCIe card (they’re cheap!). I did the latter and it was totally worth it. Also, even though my ISP is fiber, I rarely max out the 2.5G connection – could be ISP-side limitations, but still super fast.Silent, fanless, and metal build – feels solid. Great choice if you’re upgrading from 1G and want real speed improvements without overspending. Highly recommend!

Plug and play. The 10G port is a nice way to string switches close to each other together.My network has 3 of this brands switches that I upgraded from 1 gig switches. Using the proper cabling and now my network easily exceeds 2 gigs!Build quality seems as good as any I've been using for 10 years. A good value overall.

Inexpensive, so it makes a great lightning gap between the Comcast cable modem, which now needs 2.5Gb, and the internal apartment network. Replaced the old 1Gb switch. No issues with either the modem or my 10Gb Mikrotik primary and backup routers, which connect to it via 10Gb fiber. Did have to turn on flow control, but that is trivial.

The instruction sheet mentions green light and yellow light. I don't see any yellow lights, but I do see green and orange lights. The back of unit does show orange light indicator relative to speed, but instruction sheet does not mention it, just green and yellow. Thus, I don't know what it means with orange light on, and for that I am taking off one star. Otherwise, the unit is working well and all is good. Improvement could be made with some feet for elevation. The unit looks fine and time will tell as to longevity and reliability.

I have this unmanaged switch connected to my modem and cat5e cables that run to each room are also connected to it. I have a gigabit internet connection and I get very close to the maximum speed without issue. I get these speeds even while hosting a game server in a separate room, which is also connected to the switch via cat 5e cable. I have had to power cycle previous switches in order to maintain high speeds. But not with the keepLiNK 5 Port 2.5G unmanaged switch. I purchased it about 8 months ago, have never had to power cycle it, and I've had zero problems whatsoever with it. It's a quality switch that does its job well.

Needed another 2.5Gbps switch to expand my internal network. Works well. Though it is a bit lighter than the other 2.5Gbps switches I had purchased earlier. Takes up little desktop space a bonus. Getting the full 2.5Gbps speeds as advertised, better in fact. 2.74Gbps between network computers as tested with iperf.

I was surprised to find a switch in this price range that supported 10g SFP+ with 2.5g ports. I hooked up some fairly common 10g MM fiber SFP+ modules and it links up at 10g! Speed tests confirmed it and my managed switch on the other end shows a healthy 10g link. Finally maxing out my multi gig internet connection on my gaming rigs with 2.5gb network cards.The switch itself is in a small metal case, runs silent (no fans), and is cold to the touch even under load. Not much instructions or documentation to be found in the box. LEDs have clear labels and make it easy enough to understand it is working. LEDs clearly indicate 2.5g vs 1g connections. Mounting brackets on the back are tiny, couldn’t find a screw small enough to insert and none were included. Ended up using sticky strips to mount to wall.We will see how this holds up over time, but so far I am really impressed. I would recommend it so far!

Almost 1 year has passed since I purchased a KeepLiNK 9-Port Multi-Gigabit Switch with 8-PoE 2.5Gb Ethernet and 1-SFP+ 10Gb Uplink. A few days ago the switch power supply has stopped working, the switch is not working anymore.I tried contacting the manufacturer for a warranty claim and no one is taking responsibility.There seems to be no way to make a warranty claim for keepLink products.Please be aware of that when purchasing their products.
