NETGEAR 5 Port PoE Switch GS305P | Network Switch | Ethernet Splitter | 4 x PoE @ 55W | Desktop or Wall Mount

Great little switch - plugged it in connected a couple of POE WAPS and they worked straight away. ad no issues with it for over a month of working. Thats all you can ask.

I bought this to fit in an outside gate controller box. The small size and decent output has allowed me to run a couple of cameras and a video doorbell out with only a single cable back into the house. I guess if youre looking at it you know the specs and benefits of the poe+ output.

Great bit of Kit and unlike other switches has 4 POE ports and one to take the incoming ethernet to the router. I had to buy this one as when I brought the 8 port POE from NETGEAR to power my 8 Network PoE Cameras I was one port short. An error on my part.

Arrived new in the box, plugged it in and it does not power up at all. Tried to get a replacement or refund but nothing. Returns page doesn’t work and Amazon don’t help either. DO NOT BUY FROM THESE!

Turns out this hub doesnt support all POE devices - you would need a different model for that. I was unable to get it to power a TP-Link TA-WA801n wifi extender because, according to poat by a netgear tech on their support forum, it operates off a different standard. Another netgear poe hub called GS305PP is needed for that, i.e the same model number as this one but with an extra P on the end. <sigh>

Good replacement for Ubiquitis own 8 port switch with 4 poe ports as much cooler running, although I purchased this as a backup after a bricked Cloud key (1st gen) and having to install new Cloud key (HD type) and re-adopt 4 APs thinking of the possibility of failure of Ubiquiti switch after 3 years + if de-powered and/or re-adopted. In the event the GS305P ran so cool ,that after about an hour I decided to leave it in place and accept the loss of the topology info ie what is connected to a switch port , other reviews have commented on the benefits of un-managed switches after power failure

Simple unmanaged POE switch which is exactly what I wanted to power a Cisco Access point and some Swann security cameras. Just out the box, Plug & Play.

The Netgear GS305 is ideal for Homeworking, literally plug and play up to 4 devices. I would recommend for home and office use.

Easy to fit and set up no problems

Perfect for basic home poe network Plug and play and silent
