Pros:
Port mirroring
Inexpensive
Easy to use
Cons: None really
Other Thoughts: Highly recommended if you need any of it's features or just an inexpensive 8nport gigabit switch.
Pros: Perfect working Gigabit Ethernet for a low cost.
Cons: None that I found.
Other Thoughts: Has QOS service that works with my Fiber Optic TV service. Other wise TV service crashes randomly.
Pros:
-Fast, as close to 1 gig transfers as a device can get
-Does not run hot
-pretty
Cons:
-not a big con but be aware it runs on 9V and power connection is on opposite side to RJ45 jacks
-default address out of the box is 192.168.0.1. Really?
-spurious emissions significant; can't have any critical AM radio equipment near it
-when accessing the settings in some browsers you'll continually be asked to install the Chinese language pack
Other Thoughts: I've only had it an afternoon so I haven't fully loaded it down yet or tested the feature set but as a hub it is working crazy good. If you're an admin, you won't need the software and you'll know to paste the device's MAC address into the WAN access blacklist of your router, ;)
Pros:
Easy to setup
Could be wall mounted
Cons: Sparse instructions
Other Thoughts: i will recomemmend this product to anybody wanted to increase connectivity
Pros:
Inexpensive. Metal chassis with mounting holes. Smart switch. Performs well. Build quality is solid. User friendly software with intuitive controls. Pretty robust unit in a small inexpensive package.
Windows utility to manage switch, although it has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is the software finds the unit on the network regardless of the IP address. It's also convenient if you have a half dozen of these things around your office that you want to monitor. You can get to all of them through one application.
Cons:
Supposedly version 2 of this unit, which I have, is supposed to have a browser interface. My browser(s) do not seem to work with the web interface. Just getting a blank window.
Not really a con for me personally, but a little annoying that it doesn't work.
Other Thoughts: I would definitely recommend this little box if you have a windows machine on the network. Great price, good quality. Can't speak for Mac users.
Pros: it is small, no noise, Vlan tagging is a must for me.
Cons: no cons
Other Thoughts: Other reviews state noisy power adapters and such, nothing, it is fine, I also have the larger 16 port version of this, it also works fine, setup is easy, from the software tool it shows me no bad packets like another reviewer stated,, use cat 5E or better cable, I am using cat 6, QOS tagging, Vlan tagging, everything works as advertised.
Pros:
This was in service on/off for 10 months. While it worked it was a good little box. It did seem to generate a considerable amount of RF noise, switching to cat7e helped.
It failed with the following symptoms: The power led is green, but the speed and activity led are inactive. It no longer can be found by the Easy Smart Configuration utility. However, it still works as a switch, but not at 1Gb. This is a V1.0 product that does not have a built in web server. Which means you need to use a java based utility. However, the utility has several dependencies, that make it nearly impossible to easily use on Linux.
Cons:
The RMA process is impossible to navigate. I was assigned an RMA number after calling technical support. I was told to wait for the RMA department to contact me via email. I have repeatedly called technical support to follow up, ie the RMA department never contacted me. There does not seem to be anything that technical support can do once they issue an RMA number, ie they can't email or call RMA department due to internal policies.
The RMA number is just a number, it could be a fake number, since I still have a nonfunctional switch.
Other Thoughts: I would advise anyone to carefully consider avoiding TP-Link products until the RMA process improves
