Description
Connect a variety of Ethernet-enabled devices to your existing wired network with the TL-SG108 8-Port 10/100/1000 Mb/s Desktop Switch from TP-Link. Equipped with 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports, this unmanaged switch is compatible with IEEE 802.3ab, 802.3x, 802.3u, and 802.3i networking standards. Support for 802.1p helps to prioritize latency-sensitive traffic such as voice, video, and gaming, while IGMP snooping helps optimize multicast traffic.
The TL-SG108 comes with an array of power-savings features that are designed to cut energy consumption based the number of ports in use and cable length, while the unit’s fanless design helps to ensure quiet operation. The steel-housed switch can be placed on a desktop or mounted on a wall.

I’m a Sr. Network Engineer running a massive network (Around 80,000 connections, 9000 WiFi AP’s, yeah, it’s big). So I know networking. I wouldn’t use this in an enterprise application, because that’s not appropriate, use an enterprise managed network for that. But that’s not what this is for. This is a great solution for a home network that needs some expansion, or a small office. I have two of these, and they are pretty reliable for user grade electronics (e.g. switches marketed to the general public, not enterprise switches which are many times more expensive). My home network, as you might expect, is a bit more complex than most. There are two places where I just needed more ports but didn’t want a big switch, and didn’t need management features, just wanted to plug it in and go. So I did. I’ve been running one of them in between my two work computers and it’s been absolutely flawless for 3 years now, so when I needed to do the same thing in my work studio it was a no brainer to just get another one. At this price point I would have expected a crash or two over a few years, but nope, rock solid. Seems better than linksys or netgear, based on how many times I’ve had to tell people to get those off the network… Doesn’t get hot, doesn’t take much power, just does the job and doesn’t slow things down. (Yeah, I tested it, line rate FTW). Gigabit is fast enough for 99.99% of use cases, so there you go. 10Gig can be nice for really big file transfers, but most people don’t have files big enough to warrant the cost. (Well, in 2022, YMMV depending on when you read this).

I wanted a new small gigabit switch for the TP-Link Mesh network I was setting up. I connected everything and it works just as advertised. I have no problems suggesting this unit if you need a small switch.

I’m a network engineer, I run a network the size of a small city. I don’t use this for that, because that’s enterprise networking and a lot more expensive and with different requirements. Where this shines is at home or in a small office where you just need a simple solution for switching 8 ports of gig ethernet. (it does 100mb too). My #1 requirement for a network device is reliability. And this is actually my 2nd SG108 because the first one has been flawless for three years of constant 24/7 operation. I’ve seen a lot of these sorts of switches over the years and many of them are pretty crappy, mostly bad firmware. Netgear, linksys, etc etc. I cannot count the number of times I’ve been called out for a network issue that turned out that somebody had one of those under their desk and it crashed. My network was fine, but my time was wasted anyway. So yeah, I’m pretty critical about reliability. TP-Link has a good rep for reliability, so when I needed something small at home, figured I’d give them a try. My sample size of one isn’t statistically great, but I can say so far it’s been rock solid for a very long time, so it’s my go-to for this sort of cheap user-grade switch. If you need just a few more ports, it’s a no brainer. It’s line rate as far as I can tell, so it won’t slow things down.

The reason of choice is due to the unit being made of mental, has side ventilation, and naturally eight ports. In addition, you have the option of mounting it to any surface. I would have preferred that each port had two LED’s (Green/ Yellow) as opposed to one (Green). How long will it last? Well, that’s anyone’s guess.

Fast shipping, lowest price. high quality. I upgraded from a 10/100 switch to 10/100/1000. Have been doing business with B&H for over 20 yrs. Integrity and quality . Highly recommend!!
