### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love these. Work very well.
*by A***! on July 5, 2025*

Love these. Work very well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with Logitech Cameras
*by M***G on September 25, 2013*

I bought this switch because of its spec - 120 total watts, all 8 ports are POE capable, no fan (for attic installation where having a fan is probably worse) and made in Taiwan (preferred over plain China). Will be using it with at least 6 Logitech exterior cameras. Did a one week stress test to verify that all components work together. Here is my result (passed).About the switch:There are 2 components - the switch itself and a power brick. The switch is very compact and light, no moving parts. It is made in Taiwan. The power brick is similar to ones used for larger notebooks. It is made in China.The ports:There are 8. If you use one for the uplink (most applications need an uplink), then you only have 7 ports for your POE devices. Not a problem, but please plan ahead.Hook up:There is no on/off switch. Plugging the power supply in turns the switch on. I recommend doing this first, then connect the POE devices one at a time. I did tried plugging-in/unplugging the power supply with all POE devices connected. There was no problem.Power consumption:I connected 6 Logitech cameras to the switch. At full load, with all cameras booting at the same time and infra on (they turn on during boot), cameras+switch used around 50w (kill-a-watt). With the infra off, cameras+switch used around 35w. For these reasons, I was not able to verify the 120w output claim.Heat dissipation:The switch was never even warm. The cameras did get HOT, but survived the test. The power brick was more of interest because it will be in a VERY HOT attic. It was normally warm. To stress test, I wrapped it in a towel and put all cameras in a dark room to triggered the infra. In a few hours, the brick got quite hot, but not bad. Left it that way for a day. Conclusion is that it should survive my attic.In all, very satisfied. I did encountered a problem which was diagnosed to be a camera issue, not the switch's. Basically, 1 of the cameras rebooted itself whenever I connected to it using the Logitech software. I blamed the switch at first, but eventually fixed the problem by removing the SD card from the camera and reformatted it, put it back, then upgraded the firmware. Camera seemed stable now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works great for my new POE camera system
*by T***E on February 13, 2018*

I just installed this in my attic as part of my new POE security camera system. It was easy - just plug 'n play - and has been working great. I was able to mount it to a 2x6 using the included rack mount parts, which wasn't ideal but seems quite sturdy. I have all 8 POE ports running 4MP cameras, and both unpowered ports are being used too.I picked this model because I ran Cat6A cable for all my cameras and wanted a switch that could utilize high speed data if necessary. I don't think it was needed for my current cameras, but I'm hoping this switch will last for a long time and possibly through future higher-def cameras. I will try and update with how it holds up through the rainy season and the summer heat etc.Update Oct 2018: we had an unusually hot summer and this has held up just fine so farUpdate March 2019: still working greatUpdate Dec 2019: almost 2 years later, it still is working great. I haven't had a single problem with it yet.Update Nov 2020: RIP switch! it lasted almost 3 years in my attic, a much less than ideal environment, so I'm not going to downgrade my rating. I haven't played around with it, but it is possible that just one of the main ports went out or something, because it still gets power it just wasn't passing on video from my cameras to my computer. I'll check it out at some point and if it was just one of the ports I'll report back, but I've already replaced it with a new switch with more ports so I can expand my camera setup.
