I'm not using any of the Power over Ethernet, just as a much needed switch to connect various devices. And for that, it works extremely well. 5 stars.

full power delivery, no problems so far. I was worried that it might be too much, but the switch is keeping up with the power demand. most of those are security cameras, wifi access point, etc.

Excellent equipment.....

I bought this product less than a year ago, and Netgear completely stonewalls you and will not support their products. See the attached screenshot - No phone, chat, or EVEN EMAIL support. NOTHING. Utter garbage - do not buy.

I'm using this at my home office desk. slim enough to live in the cable tray under my desk. no noise, no problems.

I really love this little switch. I have a server, mac mini, and some lab equipment I wanted a gig connection for. This thing was a breeze to setup and had POE, so I could run some phones.The switch itself takes a management address from your existing home network, and doesn't enable VLANs by default. The setup is very simple, all gui based, and has enough featuresPros: Really easy to reset, if you ever lock yourself out of it. PROSAFE utility is really neat, but requires you to plug directly into it. VLAN Management is great. QOS settings are kind of pointless, but you can rate limit specific ports which is really nice (eg: throttling an access point for the kids or guest VLAN)Cons: Not really something you can leave out, if you were going to use this for a business. Anyone with enough working knowledge of NETGEAR products could probably hack this in minutes if it was unsecured. It does not appear to support MAC address sticky, even if you lock down the other ports.

Great quality, works great. Easy to set up. I wish It had ports on both sides. Wiring looks messy.
