Binardat 4 Port 2.5G Web Managed Switch with 2x10G SFP+ Slot, Ultra-Mini Size, Support Trunk/LACP/VLAN/QOS, Metal Multi-Gigabit Desktop/Wallmount Network Switch

Nice small unit. I used it so that I could connect the tv, a fire stick, and an idea shield o a wired internet connection using just a single cable from my modem to the tv unit. Has been working well for a few months, doesn’t get that warm. Quite happy with performance

I had no idea what to expect from a no-name switch, but I took a gamble. I ran a fibre with 10G SFP+ to the opposite side of my house and put this little switch there to connect a few devices at 2.5G. Obviously it’s an unmanaged switch, but it just worked on the first attempt and seems to manage the claimed speed.

They work very well with 10GB Fibre to 2.5GB or 1GB Cat cabling.

Yeah great works As should

Got this to speed up the backbone in the house, it really put the skates on

Look great but very compact Biggest issue is it loses setting So may work then if you have to restart maybe to move the device the config disappears Very frustrating

Estoy satisfecho con el rendimiento del producto. Perfecto cuando quieres diseñar una red pequeña en casa ó homelab. Ahora lo negativo que observe; al principio cuando empece a probarlo me dio velocidades de 100 Mbps. Pero despues de estar probando como unos 10 minutos de repente empezo a responder con las especificaciones de 2.5 Gps y 10 Gbps. Y desde entonces ya no se repitio esta situacion. Tengo la teoria que el switch se conecto algun sitio de internet y descargo una actualizacion de firmware y se auto instalo. Como es un modelo que no tiene interfaz de usuario de tipo "unmanaged switch". Por esta razon le quito una estrella. Esta teoría es solo una teoría porque solo sucedio en los primeros 10 minutos que se encendio este switch por primera vez Y despues nunca se repitio la situacion.

Very good switch! Gets a bit hot but no issues so far!

8 Port 10 Gigabit SFP Managed Switch Impressions: The unit is tiny, metal good overall construction. Background: I already had a 6 port 2.5\10Gb switch with 2 RG45 10Gb SFP+'s using that to allow 2 computers of mine to copy large back up files at the highest speed & used 2.5Gb NIC's & USB Adaptors for less important machines for the last year over existing domestic network cabling. So far so hoopy (Apart from occasional drop outs - More of which later) Intention: I decided that I'd like to increase my speed to other units & bought this unit as the principle hub with 2 more RG45 10Gb SFP's & put the original unit to replace a existing 1Gb switch. So now I have 3 10Gb links initially this was great. Issues: Then the dropouts returned faster & faster & with longer periods of network coming back online. After much playing about the root cause was revealed. 10Gb SFP's run f**king hot, fact of life no matter the brand (Intentional pun as that's how hot they get), the original unit had 2 SFP's happily next to the other both playing a game of chicken to see which one could get the hottest & by extension heating its neighbour at the same time without dropping the network. Solution: I spaced out the 10Gb SFP's into alternate slots (Something that couldn't be done on the original switch), they still get hot, but not having "three in a row", means they are no longer collectively cooking the other two & performance has remained stable if not better than before. Conclusions: Obviously the switch is marketed for use with cheaper SFP's for Fibre Optic media so I can't speak for their performance, those type of SFP's would run (probably) cooler. If I add machines to the faster home network, I will require more SFP's & these will get hot if they get to a point of having to be installed next to the other as I don't intend to rewire the home with fibre cable, so I will need to add some form of forced airflow for cooling or buy another switch). I hope its obvious, but you do need network cards or USB adaptors to make use of the faster speeds of 2.5 or 10Gb to connect PC's to each other resulting in faster connectivity between these machines, it will not increase the speed of your ISP connection, that said there does seem to be a subliminal impression of faster response when internet browsing on devices with the faster connections.

It's tiny! And works as expected. I've configured 2 different subnets on the same cable - mission accomplished

Worked with 10gb spf+ connections and 2.5 gb rj45 right out of the box. Really very, very small. Spf+ connectors will not fit but reach “outside” the units front. Not a Big thing, but beware if you think it goes all the way in. Cheap too. Like it a lot.
