Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Switching tab aside, settings are clear and concise.

Well built sturdy all metal casing. Sturdy metal casing, feels solid. I find myself running a fan on this because it gets toasty.

As with most other desk switches, this one's plug and play. Control is easy, mounting is easy. The website for managing the switch is very well designed and easy to use. The only downside is that there is only one outlet.

Switch does great powering my ip security cameras with no downtime. Both power and network connectivity is great.

The gs316epp has an astounding budget of 231watts which works out to about 16w per port. Power cord has a big block transformer, which is a drag, but is also a sign that it was properly designed. Perfect size to carry along in a backpack.



Cons

The configuration software is terrible. Yes, the * netgear switch discovery app wakes it up, but, only if you are on ethernet. The product is 100% incapable of responding to dhcp lease expirations.

Had to borrow it from the home system for work 45 days ago, and our it dept.

Price


99 and given the 123w think its a great price to value.


Management- the fact that its actually manageable at this price.


The other thing that costs this a half star is the ridiculous external power supply.


Update: i liked the 5 port so much and was hoping it would come back on sale but saw the 8 port for $79.

Shipping


I received it on time, i am very satisfied with my purchase.


Switch was delivered promptly and just plain works as expected.


Works as promised and delivered as promised.

Competitiveness


This poe switch had all the same specs as the "hi-end name brand" one for only 1/10th the price.


For those of you who much prefer putty to a web browser, that simply isn't an option.


Recently, i moved to an asus router from a netgear because it wsa easier to flash asus wrt-merlin onto the asus router (just mo...  Read More


This does what it does for less money than similar products from the "big names" -- 802.

    It does all the things other switches do but thanks to its 48volt power supply this one also provides up to 60w of power poe 802

    Port 5 is intended for uplink to your router or to another switch


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Simply feed port 5 to your existing lan connection and thats it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Feed your devices to any of the other 4 ports and watch them light up


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not very advanced “managed” capabilities but it’s much less expensive than enterprise switches
