TP-Link TL-SG105E 5-Port Gigabit Managed Network Switch, Ethernet Switch

After wasting time with a cheaper Ethernet adapter that was faulty and didn't work straight out of the box, I decided to buy the TP-Link UE210 instead. I'm glad I did.This one worked perfectly as soon as I plugged it in. No fuss, no troubleshooting, and no messing about with settings. It was recognised immediately and provided a stable, reliable network connection.The build quality feels good, and it's exactly what you'd expect from TP-Link. Sometimes it's worth spending a little extra to avoid the headaches that come with cheaper alternatives.Very happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend it.

I picked up the TP‑Link EH210 because I needed a simple way to split a connection in my setup, and it’s been great so far. It’s genuinely plug‑and‑play — no messing around, no configuration, just connect it and it works.The build feels solid, the USB power option is convenient, and it handles gigabit speeds without any slowdown. I mainly use it to tidy up my network layout so I don’t have cables running everywhere, and it’s made things a lot cleaner and easier to manage.If you need a straightforward 1‑to‑2 splitter that just works, this one has been a really useful little addition for me.

Fits perfectly in the TV unit to hide it from view, 8 switches which enables multiple devices to be connected at once preventing constantly changing cables. Easy set up; feed one cable from the router to switch and then switch to the devices. Cheap price compared to some otherwise and works perfectly. Would recommend.

Solid Ethernet hub which is good for home or office use. It’s bombproof.

Great item does what it says on the tin.

I originally kitted the house out with full Netgear PoE switches, such as 724s and 108s, and they ran the house beautifully for 5+ years. However, two 8-port switches and one 24-port non-green switches use about 60 watts, and even more if using PoE for cameras etc. That's the equivalent of leaving a lightbulb on day and night, which adds up over 5+ years. It adds double now that our energy utilities are scalping us on bills.So, I switched to these low-power switches. They basically just went in as drop-in replacements. No configuration required. Their ports auto-configured and everything just carried on working. I've gone from 60+Watts to about 8 watts. I've also put one of the switches on a timer because there's never anyone in one of the rooms from 11pm to 8am. I tried that with the older switches and they tended to get their knickers in a twist if you did it too often.So, on average over 24 hours the networking kit is now about 6-8 Watts instead of 50+Watts. So, doing the maths...~50 Watts saved per hour, for 24 hours for 365 days a year is 50x24x365 = 438kWh per year. At 50p per kWh, that's £219 saved over the year, more than paying for the new kit in just 4 months in fact. In the 5 years I expect to run it, that's almost a grand if the price per kWh doesn't drop!!!!Very easy to install, very quick, very sleek and smart, and works flawlessly while saving a lot of money.

Works well

Great 5 port network adapter. Easy to install and good value.

ottimo prodotto ad un prezzo invitante. Molto facile da installare funziona benissimo. Consigliabile

Maybe I haven't been living in Europe long enough but when ordering for German delivery on the .de website I do not expect tp receive the product with a UK power plug. Will change it myself but disappointed. :-(

Non avevo mai acquistato uno switch prima d'ora, e sono stato piacevolmente sorpreso della facilità e del prodotto in ogni suo aspetto. Piccolo, nascosto dietro alla mia scrivania, senza rumori e con una piccola interfaccia gestionale per settare alcuni parametri che per me sono rimasti invariati. Solidità, il prodotto è in metallo, non scalda e si può installare in qualunque posizione data l'assenza di parti in movimento. Poca spesa molta resa. Consigliato!

Works as intended. Able to split our Office LAN connections to more PC's

TP-Link lleva tiempo sorprendiéndome con productos de calidad a buen precio. Algunos los tengo desde hace años y están como el primer día, así que cuando vi que necesitaba un producto sencillo y duradero como debería ser un switch doméstico ni me lo pensé.De momento puedo decir que incluso ha sobrepasado mis expectativas y veremos si aguanta años, como espero de él.Con caja metálica, terminados de calidad, y siendo realmente pequeño, recuerda más a un switch profesional que a uno doméstico de menos de 20€. Por la parte de abajo tiene marcas para poder colgarlo o sujetarlo con tornillos. Todo esto me hace ver que la parte más floja de TP-Link, que era el diseño (a veces aparatos innecesariamente grandes y plasticosos) también mejora.En cuanto al funcionamiento sencillamente impecable. Aparte viene con indicadores led que te permiten saber el funcionamiento y la velocidad de conexión de cada boca.Otra sorpresa positiva, es configurable tanto por interfaz web, como desde un programa windows. La mayoría de usuarios domésticos no necesitan esto, pero ahí está para quien le sirva alguna de sus opciones configurables. Una opción sólo disponible hasta hace poco en switch de precios muchísimo más altos. Ojo, por defecto la interfaz web viene con IP estática 192.168.0.1 y es muy probable que os coincida con vuestro router o algún otro aparato, dando problemas en vuestra red. Lo mejor es que primero os conecteis por cable de red directamente desde un ordenador al switch (dejando el router y resto de cosas fuera) y modifiquéis esa dirección en el switch a una que no utiliceis (se le puede poner IP estática o que la coja de forma dinámica de vuestro servidor DHCP).Respecto al consumo, muy bajo. Ninguno de mis switchs o hubs bajaba de 3,8w. Este con 3 conexiones gigabit 1,5w.La parte que menos me gusta: su diseño recuerda a un swith profesional con las tomas en el frontal. Pero para un aparato doméstico yo hubiera preferido las tomas en la parte trasera y los indicadores en la delantera, para poder dejarlo en una mesa o estantería y que los cables colgaran hacia atrás. De todas formas al ser tan pequeño, lo tengo debajo de la mesa haciendo su trabajo y no molesta.
