BV-Tech 6 Port PoE+ Switch (4 PoE+ Ports with 2 Ethernet Uplink and Extend Function) – 60W – 802.3at + 1 High Power PoE Port| Desktop Fanless Design | Plug & Play | Sturdy Metal Housing

Based on the past reviews, I thought I would try this POE switch for my New Wired Ring Stick Up Cameras which have POE ports. The price is reasonable and the unit feels well built. It does not get hot and barely warm. I had to run a 120 foot CAT6 cable from my router in my house to my detached garage a 100 feet away. I also ran a 50 foot CAT5 cable to my front door. Once I completed the set up, all my Ring POE cameras were up and running online. The switch seems to provide the correct watts of power required to power the Ring cameras and my video/audio is crystal clear. I've had this up for a week now and no issues. Although I have not measured the speed of the switch and data, the video and notifications to my phone are instant and no lag. I am considering a purchase of another one of these switches to have mounted in my garage so I can extend my camera system and hook up more cameras. I am using quality Blue Jean Cables with this switch and the whole systems / set up is very stable. The only negative as others have mentioned is the the cable inputs are on both sides of the box which makes it difficult to mange the cables coming in from two directions. The LEDs are also illuminated off to the side instead of flashing at the port itself but these are minor as I would rather have a stable switch.UPDATE: March 2020 - Cameras and PoE box is running perfectly over the years. No Issues, No outages. Very impressed with this switch.

It is good working great good job thank you very much

I looked at many PoE injectors, and decided for $34 this is the best option. I initially purchased just one PoE camera, but this switch allows me to add three more by simply running the ethernet cable. What more could you ask for?This switch has a PoE+ port on the first plug, and all four plugs will run at PoE standard power levels. If you need PoE+ you probably cannot use all four, it will limit you to one or two more standard PoE plugs, because it has a maximum power output.There is a switch for Default, and Extended. If you need to run longer than 300 feet you can switch to extended, it will reduce the bandwidth of the PoE ports to 10Mbps, and increase the power, so that it can run longer cables safely. I don't recommend this, just try to use the 300 feet limit, and the default setting and you will be fine.If you have to go longer, I suggest you but another of these, or an individual injector. Then, use 300 feet cable segments with switch/hubs to reach you destination at full speed.My house is all 1000Mbps ethernet. I connect the PoE switch to one of the ports and it runs at 100Mbps with the switch. There are two uplink ports on the switch, not sure why you need it, but you could connect two networks to this, if you so desired.If you are buying a single camera, I suggest skipping the single PoE injectors and getting this. You then have the option of adding three more cameras without needing another injector. The 100Mbps is more than enough bandwidth for the cameras, they usually need about 2Mbps each.Most single injectors are $19. This is $34 and gives you 4 standard PoE injectors with one optionally running PoE+. This is a great deal, and a good choice. Be smart and plan ahead, that is what I did. I just ordered additional cameras today, and I am very glad I purchased this, because I don't need to get more injectors, just need the camera and ethernet cables to hook it up.

I purchased this POE switch to replace the one that I had that died recently. It connected my two WAPS into my network without any problems and works smoothy with my UniFi Network Server application management software. I recommend it to anyone who has network extender WAPS installed.

Easy to set up, performed as expected, no issues, just what I wanted, great price!

This unit works well and I have not had any issues with it. I am using it for my ip cameras and am satisfied with it.

This is a fantastic switch. Rock solid.

I bought one of these for a non-technical friend of mine. The coloured ports make it really easy to explainOther than that, it's a switch. It's powering a couple of Unifi access points.There is a bug in the Unifi controller that throws misleading errors if the switch you plug the APs into is not made by Unifi. I experienced this bug with this switch. It is not the fault of the switch, but maybe this comment will save others a few hours of searching and swapping cables like I did before I found the thread(s) of many users discussing this
