Zyxel GS1200-8HP

This is a great switch. It is very easy to configure, fast & reliable. I use it in multi vlan environment and POE to power Unifi AC Pro access points. It is great and have not had any problems. I have 6 of the 8 port version and 1 of the 24 port version.

I had an old unmanaged GIGA switch before and was getting a lot less download speed after the switch compared to before the switch. I checked the download before the switch and was getting 226 MBPS. After my old switch something like 64 MBPS only. When I changed to the Zyxel managed switch, I was getting the same speed before and after the new switch.

Fast shipping and works great. It took me a while to get it to connect, but I finally got it and I think most of the problem was my learning curve. This was the first managed switch I have used.

I cannot fault the product as from what I noticed it seemed to work okay (a bit complicated for the avg user) only purchased this because when I did a search on Amazon for POE this came up and I was excited to have a 8 port switch for the camera system that was managed and all. But no I think it was amazon that fell short on this one which Is why I am not giving this less than 4 stars but the info on the product also says POE so I don't know but if you want a 8 port switch and option to manage then this is your product

Used this to do link aggregation and SMB3. Good manageable switch. Just beware that it has a default IP address of 192.168.1.1. It's changeable though.
