Pros: Fast, small and easy.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: An affordable managed version of this would be great!

Pros: Fast switch, just works. Plugged it in 9 months ago, and had 0 issues.

Cons: None.

Pros: We bought this switch almost four years ago as a temporary stopgap replacement. It wasn't until we started remodeling a section of the office that I remembered it existed. The other GigE switches we have are all managed HP Procurve, Dell, and Cisco models. For standard network traffic, this little HP box keeps up with the big boys. Full 9K Jumbo Frame support, built-in QoS and DSCP prioritization - features not typically found anywhere near this price point. Add to that HP's lifetime warranty, and you have a winner.

I recall that we had a different consumer-grade, jumbo frame capable switch that we used when a failure occurrence. The hit to network throughput was not minor. This HP switch brought the connections back to full speed.

The power brick has, wonders of wonders, a standard cabled plug rather than a wall wart. The brick sits midway in the cable - think your laptop power supply. This makes for a UPS or surge protector-friendly connection. At the switch end, there is a locking loop to ensure the power cable is not accidentally unplugged.

Cons: Well, one could ask for link aggregation, etc. And you can get it - for 5x the cost.

Other Thoughts: HP designed this switch with the desktop in mind. Ports are on the back, status LEDs on the front. If you do not require a rack mounted, managed switch, it is hard to go wrong with the HP J9559A.

Pros: It works like expected. Nice

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Thank you HP for not making the led's so bright they keep me up all night.

Pros: Our IT shop only purchases HP Procurve switches and we've only had one go bad in 5 years. We replaced a client's server and firewall and since they had an old Dell 10/100 switch we figured we might as well replace their switch while we're at it. They only have 3 computers and a couple of network printers so this switch was the perfect size. Their network was absolutely blazing fast after the upgrade. This switch is great for small businesses that want the most out of their network.

Cons: None

Pros: -8 GigE ports
-Jumbo Frame support (up to 9216-byte frame size)
-Lifetime warranty
-High Throughput
-Actually delivers gigabit Ethernet performance

Cons: -None, for the money

Other Thoughts: This little Procurve switch does what it is supposed to. I purchased this because I needed a small unmanaged GigE switch, supporting jumbo frames.

This does the trick, and delivers high throughput on every port. Adjusting for TCP overhead, I am able to get a full gigabit of transfer.

So far, this has been moving data to multiple simultaneous devices in my home for over a year without a hiccup.

Pros: Highly recommended, great value for SoHo

Cons: none

Pros: this is the 2nd and 3rd one i've ordered. the first one works great right out of the box.

Cons: will have to see

Other Thoughts: Missing power adapters on both units ordered. called hp 800 number and they will send out the adapters. This is strange that so many people have had this happen. I guess hp knows about the problem and fixes it with no hassle.

Pros: - The packaging is ok

Cons: - Came without power adapter (common problem)
- Speed is nowhere near 1 Gbps (at most 400 Mbps)
- Newegg dropped the ball on customer service

Other Thoughts: When I opened the box the power adapter was missing. Read the reviews and see that others had the same problem. Newegg customer service took 1 WEEK to respond that they were not going to do anything about it. HP was good to send me a power adapter after spending 30 min calling different 1-800 numbers. Now the switch wouldn’t do more than 400 Mbps. Look elsewhere if you value your time and money.

Pros: Excellent switch, great throughput and very good build quality.

Cons: None.
