    Is this a managed device or just a layer 2 switch? i.e.; can you tag ports for VLANs?
    edit: thanks for the neg, I didn't realise questions weren't allowed.

    • I didn't neg you, but given you can literally click on the link and find the answer it was probably justified

      • +1

        It took me a while to find "VLAN NO" in the specifications. Most of the other switches specify managed or unmanaged in the title.

        • +5

          normally if its managed it will say its managed

          the default is unmanaged

    • When looking for switches, the assumption is everything is unmanaged unless stated as managed in the model name.

      • Exactly. I feel like the price of this gives it away as unmanaged too.

    • +3

      If you want managed, then Horaco has an 8 port managed switch (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005943823096.html)

      Probably available under other brands too. All these cheap 2.5gbe switches are the same internals (servethehome pulled a few apart).

  • +8

    Unmanaged switch

    No Aus power supply on this listing? So we'll also need to consider the cost of an adaptor for those who don't have one.

  • I can see 3 versions EU/US/UK plugs BYO adapter so does it matter which version I buy?
    US (120V) plug is cheapest $73.10 (120v?) UK (240V) $73.29 EU (240V) $84.10
    Can BYO adapter, or use a UK/US to AU Plug
    Please let us know - need to buy ASAP

    • It’s got a barrel jack in the back. I don’t remember what voltage it was but I’m using a wall wart from the stash and it works fine.

    • You cannot use a US 120v power supply in Aus with a simple travel adapter. For a few cents I’d get the UK or EU one if you plan to do use with a travel adapter.

      • DC adapters universally always are 110-240v. The only difference is usually the prongs.

        Ive never actually even seen low power DC adapters NOT support all voltages in fact, do they exist for things under 1kW?

        • That’s fair, chances are they use the same universal power supply for all 3 plug variants. But as it doesn’t list the voltage in the description I would take peace of mind for just a few cents more.

        • I've seen them a long time ago when switched mode power supplies were not as popular. Easy to spot them since they are pretty bulky due to the huge transformer.

          Some of them had a 240/120 switch (which basically uses the center-tap of the transformer). But it made economical sense those days for a 120v only power supply since you can get away with a transformer that's almost half the size.

    • -1

      Buy whichever and adapt it or you can probably buy a generic barrel plug adapter with the same measurements and voltage.

  • -4

    The specifications are confusing.

    It says it's "Non-POE", yet it says it has "30W Output power", and "120W Total power". The diagram shows devices connected with data+power.

    Assuming it doesn't support POE, why would I buy one of these, when I can pick up an 8-port Netgear switch locally for $59 ?

    • -1

      Even if it was PoE I wouldn't buy that trash, just pay the extra cash and get something solid

    • +6

      8-port Netgear switch locally for $59

      That supports 8x 2.5Gbit and 1x 10Gbit SFP?

      • I'll take two thanks

      • Where is this? Do you have a weblink?

      • -8

        Righto. 2.5Gbit/s, why does anyone need that sort of speed?

        • +5

          If we ignore business and say the home consumer, local transfer speeds? My home network is 2.5GbE and transferring TBs of data between the NAS', server and PCs is much quicker.

          • +4

            @Clear: And at these prices, they're not much more than gigabit switches.

            A lot of motherboards have 2.5gbe onboard these days, and if they don't it's about $15 for a 2.5gbe card. And you don't need to replace your wiring.

            Occasionally you get the tech bro lamenting "why would anyone buy 2.5G when 10G is available". Then you add up the costs of decent 10G switches, 10G cards, 10G links, and it quickly goes beyond ozbargain territory.

              A great example of where one of these switches is useful for patching in multiple computers as 2.5GbE!

        • +4

          Difference between ~120 megabytes a second and ~300 megabytes a second. Makes a difference moving files to and from NAS

    • +1

      Interested too in the Netgear 2.5gbe 8 ports at $59! Wheres the link?

      • +9

        there's no link

        this guy is comparing a bus pass to owning a car

        • +3

          Yes, what advantages does this motorcar have over a train, which I could also afford?

  • -1

    Look at the device and you see there's a couple of LEDs on it on saying either that the 8 ethernet ports are all running at 2.5G, or they're all running as 100/1000 megabit ports. It looks like it can only do one or the other. That it can't mix 2.5G with the other speeds. That if you run any ports at slower speeds then any 2.5G devices are reduced to gigabit speed.

    • +5

      I have the 4 port version and this is not true - the left light on each port indicates 2.5 and the right one indicates 100/1000

      • OK, fair enough, those aren't LEDs, they just tell you what the left and right lights above the port mean.

  • +2

    Thanks OP this will be perfect. Especially with the SFP port.

  • -1

    Any known deals to come up with a 10/12 port POE switch? Unmanaged will do fine.
    Have a fair few cctv cameras so im bouncing off 2 cheap 8ports =/

  • +3

    I have the Horaco 8port 2.5GBe with a single 10GBe port so actually went for the smaller unit that OP mentions (approx. $43) as it comes with 2x 10GBe ports - so I can play around with that. As per comment from "Clear" if you are moving enough data then 2.5GBe over 1GBe makes a big difference

    • +1

      I accidentally bought the 4 port model (despite OP's warning) so it looks like a SFP+ upgrade is in my future. However, I would probably buy this model instead now: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006278753506.html since it's a managed switch with the same port configuration and only a bit more expensive.

      The 4 port Hisource model is impressively light and compact though, so I don't fully regret my mistake.

  • +1

    If you already have a PoE switch, then use one of these https://www.amazon.com.au/ANVISION-Splitter-Ethernet-Securit… to power the switch in this deal, they work great 👍
    There are also 5v versions and USB versions too to power USB-powered devices.

  • +1

    The same store has this one with either 8 gigabit PoE ports for US$37.27 or 8 Gigabit PoE + 2 GbE + GbE SFP for US$40.07.
