Easy installation and operation, dependable network switch
This was a replacement of an older D-Link gigabit switch that expired after years of a multi computer network; size & operation very useful & dependable. Network activity notable via front LED panel, silent operation. No problems noted to date, reasonably priced.

Great FANLESS switch – updated from what Amazon shows
I just ordered one of these as part of a project to rack up and centralize my home network. Prior to this I had several switches in my basement daisy chained together. With this new D-Link switch I was able to rack this up with some nifty vertical rack arms and in conjunction with a 24 port patch panel and rack cable organizer get everything very nicely organized.The Amazon description for this switch is out of date. The current version of the product indicates that with the latest power supply it is up to 73% more efficient than similar non green D-link switches. Also worth noting is that the face plate on my unit is a silver color, not the white appearing face plate in the product photos.I connected this switch on my work bench with a Kill-A-Watt power meter and with nothing else connected this 24 port beast is sipping just 3 watts. With five gigabit devices it is using a miserly 7 watts. Even fully loaded, according to the specs this switch will not use more than about 19 watts. The switch has features that will throttle down power consumption based on device connection speed, cable distance and whether a port is active or not. All of this means that you can build out a very robust home network without leaving something running 24X7 that is consuming a lot of power.I was close to ordering the competing Netgear product (JGS524) however the Netgear has two fans in it (noisy and prone to failure) where as this D-Link switch is fanless! This is a big deal, as the fan is often the component that will go out over the long term with a product like this… not to mention the noise you will experience if you are anywhere near the device. The Netgear does have a “lifetime” warranty (and better warranty support) where as the D-Link has a 5 year warranty. With no moving parts, and if hooked up to high quality surge suppression the D-Link box should last for a very long time without problems.Performance with this switch is excellent, I get rocket fast transport between all of my devices. It’s worth noting that this is an unmanaged switch so you cannot break your network up into VLANs or do cable diagnostics, etc, with this switch. For its purpose though of providing a super fast home or small office network it is offering a tremendous value. THighly recommend it!

Excellent, Easy Solution for New Home Network
I built a new home, and with everything in the entertainment center wanting a network port, decided to wire the house from the ground up. I ended up with 21 cat5e cables, and this is the switch that I decided to use.I used the rack mounting brackets and secured the switch under the basement stairs, and plugged in my network cables before the cable company came with the modem.The basic set up is cable modem to a wireless router in the middle floor, and using only one of the outputs from the router, connect back to the switch, and from this switch to everywhere else.This switch was so easy, the cable company came and hooked up their modem, I plugged in the “modem to router” line that I had already run, and didn’t have to do any configuration whatsoever. Didn’t even put in the CD Rom that shipped with the switch. It worked right out of the box.I have a 12 and 13 year old that X-Box and Computer simultaneously, while the 3 year old watches a streaming movie from netflix, and Directv is even hooked in to this switch for the whole home set up. I can’t speak to reliability yet, but it is fast, silent, and breeze to hook up.

Excellent switch
It’s a really good switch. It’s low power and has no fan. The status lights are good, indicating which ports are 1G vs 10/100 with a quick glance. I did see a review where the author said the layout of the status lights was a little strange, and that’s true. The layout/sequence of the ports compared to the layout/sequence of the status lights is a bit difficut to correlate – D-Link could have done a better job arranging the ports. The sequence of the status lights would make sense if they numbered the ports straight across horizontally, instead the way they chose. The picture at the top of the page is probably a prior version of it as those lights are arranged differently. The faceplate is silver, not the grey as shown.Installation took no time at all. Plugged in the power, moved all my existing cables from the old 8 port hub to the this one and I was in business.Performancewise, I have no complaints. Throughput is as expected. I’ve had it powered on for almost 2 months and not one power down/power up.For the current price this is listed at, it is a bit on the high side. Mine was from the Warehouse Deals inventory and was significantly less expensive. For the current price I see listed, you can probably find a decent managed switch.

This is a great, very dependable, unmanaged switch
This thing is a beast. I have it in use in a cardiologist / multi-office environment. There are two networks tied into it (I know, this is bad. You should never do this.) and it has never hiccuped. Currently about 20 of the 24 ports are in use. None have died. Each gets the advertised throughput. I bought another for the house, where another 18 ports are in use, also getting the advertised throughput. It is lightning fast and has never had to be reset. Ports never just quit responding. It doesn’t have any of the problems a cheaper unmanaged switch might have over time. The one in the cardiologist’s office has been in use for over 18 months now without ever needing a reset or requiring my time to troubleshoot. As of today, I need another for a small government office. Because of its previous reviews and my past experience with this device, I’m able to pick up a 3rd with great confidence in what the users will be getting.

Used on my home network. Using 10 ports. Very good product.

Switch simple d’utilisation. Accomplit ce pour quoi il a été conçu. J’aurais apprécié deux ports en 2.5 Gbts sur les 16. Appareil de bonne qualité néanmoins.

All good run one for years not a problem.

Con este aparato he configurado una red doméstica de 1Gb. TenÃa problemas con mi router antiguo, 100Mb, de tan solo 4 entradas que tuve que complementar con un pequeño hub en el PLC.No percibo ni calor, ni ruidos del aparato. Además no lleva transformador externo, a pesar de ser pequeño en tamaño. Un plug and play estupendo.Por ponerle una pega, los led estarÃan mejor en las bocas de las tomas de red, porque donde están se tapan con los cables. DeberÃas tener un montaje en rack para verlos bien, están juntos y son chicos, se lee mal cuál corresponde a cada entrada

Reasonable and cheap Gigabit Router. We have used this as the main switch which connects all the servers and the individual switches from each location. Does the job well,
