SODOLA 8 Port 10Gb Easy Web Managed Switch, 8 x 10G RJ-45 Ports, 160Gbps Bandwidth, Support LACP, VLAN, QoS, 10G/5G/2.5G/1000M/100M Auto-Negotiation, Multi-Gigabit Managed Ethernet Switch

Stopped working after less than 4 months

Der Switch war einer der wenigen, die 8x 10Gb mit RJ45 bieten. Er ist teurer als die Version mit SFP Anschlüssen. Dafür spart man aber die SFP Module, die ich nicht brauche, weil bei mir schon ein Kabelgebundenes LAN (CAT 7 Kabel) liegt und ein Tausch auf Glasfaser zu aufwendig schien. Ich habe den Switch seit einem Jahr im Einsatz. Ich verbinde damit drei Rechner mit 10Gb LAN Karten mit einem NAS mit 2x 10Gb LAN Anschlüssen und NVMe festplatte. Darüber hinaus sind der Router (1Gb), der Drucker (100Mb) und einige WLAN Extender angeschlossen. Der Switch steht auf dem Dachboden neben dem NAS und dem Switch Panel. Er funktioniert einwandfrei. Die zwei 10Gb für das NAS System sind im Switch über Port Aggregation zusammengeschaltet, so dass selbst bei gleichzeitigem Zugriff von zwei Rechnern auf das NAS kein merklicher Flaschenhals entsteht. Die Geraüschentwicklung ist gering, spielt aber in meinem Fall eh keine Rolle. Auch die Wärmeentwicklung ist selbst im Hochsommer gering. Der Zugriff auf das NAS "fühlt" sich fast so an, als ob auf die PC interne Festplatte zugegriffen wird. Alles in Allem von mir eine klare Kaufempfehlung.

Decent basic switch, but can be great with better firmware. In my case, the requirements were straightforward, needed simple web management with the ability to run VLAN, spanning tree, and SNMP for monitoring, with good throughput. And, it needed to be affordable. This switch mostly fits the bill. Here are the pros and cons. Pro: Easy to configure, can be up in minutes. Affordable. Ready to configure out of the box without console access. Had no trouble with link speed negotiation with any of my other switches or desktops. Came up as 10g with cat5e cabling (surprised the heck out of me). Good throughput, saturates the 1G switch connected downstream. No packet loss either. No issues with spanning tree. Hasn't crashed on me yet after a week of use. Cons: Runs hot. Bottom of the switch is almost too hot to touch when operational. The copper SFP+ from the vendor negotiates with uplink at 10G without issues but its very hot to touch. The firmware is just goofy. No graphs to indicate link utilization, which my zylex from 5 years ago has. Durability and reliability are yet to be determined. Needs to come with "feet" to raise it off the surface since the bottom gets so hot. I hope the switch lasts, cause warranty claims may be a mystery, so I am on the fence if I want to keep it or put more money and get one from a reputable vendor who stands behind their product. Edit: 9/21/25 Had issues with one of the 10G ports on one of the two switches I had purchased, so swapped it out for a new one. For some reason, the bad packet counters showed symmetric increments for both TX and RX. Weird, the replacement had no such issues with an identical configuration. Ths switch gets very hot when 3 or more ports are used.

Exactly as advertised. Great price. REALLY performs at 2.5gig on Ethernet.

Stop working after 9 month of usage. Tryed contact the seller for solving this issue. After waiting for response 1 week still didn't receive an answer. Do not recommend this seller.

Having bought very expensive QNAP 10G switches with "loop detection" that kept detecting a loop that didn't exist ... thought I'd try this switch at 1/3rd the price. Plugged it in, connected some Cat8 cable RJ45 and viola ... it worked. I didn't even need load the UI (it's managed switch). Check transfer speeds and they were accurate at 1130 MB/s (theoretical max is 1250 MB/s). Super impressed with this unit, inexpensive gold star in a field of very expensive garbage.
