NICGIGA 8 Port 10G Ethernet Switch, 8x 10Gb Base-T Ports, Unmanaged, RJ45, Black Metal Case, Compatible with Desktops, Gaming Consoles, Routers, Printers, Laptops

The product - NICGIGA S100-0800T - has a compact metal chassis that feels solid and well-constructed. It's rack-mountable but also sits comfortably on a shelf ( my case ) . Despite of some reviews complaining on the fan noise being loud I was - pleasantly - surprised with the " noise " created by the fan . Is audible but, honestly, is not loud at all. This model is an unmanaged switch, so there’s no web GUI or configuration needed — plug and play. For me is ideal : just wanted to upgrade bandwidth without dealing with VLANs or network tuning...and of course ... possibility to have access ( home network LAN ) to more than two 10G ports . Being a plug-n-play device I didn't notice any issues : just plug the Lan cable and it get connected ! Running the transfer ( NAS --> Desktop ) using the switch the speed is pretty decent : 290-320 MB /s ( see picture ) vs 100-120 MB/s when using the standard 1Gbe router port ... but this is obvious ! Overall : a good product - I am using it since four weeks now - encountering ZERO issues so far ! Talking about the price ... well ... this is a different story here : I have purchased this product at a price of 278 Euro which is - at least in my view - still high but close to the correct value for the money. To summarize : I do recommend it for someone who needs multiple 10 GB ports ( my case ).

Matches all the standards I needed. Works very well. A runs little warm. Watch when you choose a placement as the airflow is right to left, hot air exits on the left side. To get the best from this unit use properly shielded cables 6a or better. Throughput is excellent. Connectivity from 1,2.5, and 10 gb connections is flawless. Good quality product. Very solidly constructed. Includes rack mounting bracket and screws to mount them to the unit.

Bin begeistert, von dieser Switch. Möchte auch gar nicht groß darauf eingehen, aber der Lüfter ist sehr leise. Aus einer Sitzposition von etwa 2 Metern muss ich schon sehr darauf achten, damit ich ihn leise heraushören kann. Die Switch ist bei mir auch in einem Netzwerkschrank eingebaut und alles läuft super. Natürlich macht es mit den HDDs auf meiner NAS keinen Unterschied und es ist immer noch so schnell wie zuvor mit 2,5 Gbit/s. Aber da ich auch NVMe und SATA SSDs verbaut habe, macht es einen großen Unterschied. So habe ich in beide Richtungen bis zu 1,10 GB/s erreichen können. Bei mir sitzt im Netzwerkschrank direkt über dem Switch ein Lüfter, was auch von Vorteil sein kann.

I received my unmanaged 8x10GbE switch in early November 2025. And have been using it for almost nine months now. I am currently using it in my network closet. And I use it to feed my 10GbE Backbone, on my home LAN. With a 10GbE input from my Asus BE-96U. And six of 10GbE ports go to my six, 2.5GbE switches, with 10GbE uplinks. That feed the 70+ wired devices on my home network. I am able to easily get 9.4Gbps speeds from any of the 10GbE ports. And I've had no issues with fan noise or heat from the unit. It has been very reliable during my use.

My backup switch. Very impressed quality. Id rub as my main honestly.
