Learn about network switches
Build Scalable and Secure Wired Networks
Network switches are the backbone of wired networking, enabling fast and reliable connections between desktops, servers, IP cameras, access points, and more. Browse network switch options tailored to home users and IT pros.
Popular Types of Switches
Managed Switches
- Enterprise-grade control with VLAN, QoS, and SNMP features
- Available in Layer 2 and Layer 3 models with up to 48+ ports
- Supports traffic prioritization for critical workloads
Unmanaged Switches
- Simple plug-and-play operation with automatic speed detection
- Perfect for homes, gaming setups, and basic small offices
- Options from 5-port to 24-port desktop or wall-mount units
PoE Switches
- Power devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and Wi-Fi APs directly over Ethernet
- Reduces cable clutter and simplifies installations
- Look for PoE+ and PoE++ support for higher wattage needs
2.5G/10G & Rackmount Switches
- 2.5G switches ideal for gaming, NAS, and Wi-Fi 6+ APs
- 10GbE models suitable for virtualization and data-heavy networks
- SFP+ options allow seamless fiber integration
Choosing the Right Switch for Your Setup
- Small Office/Home Office (SOHO): Use unmanaged 5- or 8-port switches for fast, no-fuss connectivity.
- Mid-sized Businesses: Use PoE switches for powering cameras and APs plus managed switches for better traffic control.
- Enterprise or Campus: Layer 3 managed switches with SFP+ uplinks and redundant power supply support mission-critical networks.
Benefits of Using a Network Switch
- Wired internet via switch is more secure than Wi-Fi, ideal for security systems and surveillance.
- Supports high-speed, stable streaming to 4K TVs, game consoles, and smart home hubs.
- You can place a network switch near your entertainment center to manage wired devices.
- Gigabit switches ensure reliable wired throughput without bottlenecks.
- Looking to expand? See Ethernet accessories like brackets, PSUs, and cables.
- Need help setting up? Check our networking guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a hub and a switch?
Switches manage traffic more efficiently by sending data only to the intended destination, while hubs broadcast to all ports.
Can I mix 1G and 2.5G devices on a 2.5G switch?
Yes—auto-negotiating ports will support mixed speeds while optimizing overall performance.
Are smart switches the same as managed switches?
Smart switches offer limited management features like VLANs and QoS, while fully managed switches provide deeper configurability and monitoring.
What does SFP mean?
