Summary: I am not sure why any one would buy any other 8 port 10/100 switch when there is this beauty on the market. The unit makes no noise because it has no fan; it runs cool on its own. The unit has a big buffer and gigabit Ethernet so it is fast and future friendly even if you don’t use gigabit nics yet. I have run this switch with a wide range of cards and other switches on the network and no problems with compatibility at all. Honestly installing it was about as easy as installing a power bar, just plug in all the cords and away it goes. We have had our 3 GS608 switches running for half a year and not one problem. I wish all networking products were this well designed and reliable.

- Description: For a high-speed network on a small scale, nothing delivers like this stylish powerhouse. This fast, easy, and affordable Gigabit switch gives your home network the maximum capacity to handle huge bandwidth. Packed with ease-of-use features to simplify your networking experience, its sleek design makes it look great on a desktop - either flat or in the provided stand. The GS608 moves very large files such as high-end multimedia, gaming, Internet access, and other speed-intensive applications across your network instantly, and because it is standards-based, it painlessly integrates existing 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps devices on your network. The fan-less design results in silent operation allowing you to focus on your game or relax to your music. Matched with NETGEAR's thorough testing, the GS600 switches provide long-lasting performance you can count on.
