Handles high speeds very well, but fan makes it noisy
I installed an Ethernet network in my home so I could start getting the full speeds I am paying for with Google Fiber. I bought both the 8 port model and the 5 port model. We keep the 8 port model in a closet so the noise is not too much of an issue.My 8 port unit receives traffic from the Router and then switches it to 3 other rooms, an Apple TV, and an AirPort Express (for Stereo speakers). One of the other rooms contains the 5 Port Switch, which provides Ethernet to my Mac Studio, Apple TV, BluRay, a Wireless Extender, (and to a TV daisy-chained off the Wireless Extender.In theory, two switches capable of 10Gbs should be able to easily handle sending 5Gbs (my Google Fiber Speed) through from one switch to another at close to full speed. I am happy to say that this is exactly what I am experiencing. If I measure the Google Fiber speed at the router, I am getting about 6Gbs, and when I measure at my Mac Studio - having gone through 2 switches - I am still getting in excess of 5.5Gbs at the Mac Studio.My other devices are only capable of 1Gbs, and I am getting up to.970Mbs on them.Setup is literally plug and play.To summarize, these switches are doing what I need them to do, but the 8 port one is too noisy to be in a room. It is fine in a closet, however.We considered daisychaining 2 of the 5 port units to replace the 8 port unit. You go from 8 to 10 ports, but you give back two of the ports for the Daisy Chain, so you have greatly increased the cost for no additional capacity. But it would be less noisy.

Style: 8 Port | 10GVerified Purchase
There isn't a lot to say about an unmanaged 8-port switch. It works, it came with all possible required mounting hardware and a power cable, and it provides 10GBE links as advertised. I recently upgraded to 8 gigabit internet service, and needed a switch that could do 10GBE. Since it natively uses ethernet, I did not need to purchase any SFP modules or worry about fiber cabling. It works well both over 10GB link to my home server and for the 2.5GB links to 2 gaming PCs, and properly auto-negotiates the correct speeds. I wish it was a bit cheaper, but 2.5 & 5GB support are new, and a cost comes with new technology. It is a lot quieter and more power-efficient than using an old enterprise 10GB switch.

Per-port lights made it obvious which ports run at 2.5 gigabit, 1 gigabit, and 100 megabit. I loved the fan-less design - zero noise coming from these TP-Link switches. I will never buy a fan-based switch again - they collect dust, and eventually die unless kept clean.
Speed:
Tested throughput extensively using iperf3 on the local network, and speedtest.net for Internet speed.
LAN (local network) bandwidth tests reliably 2.3 gigabit average between two computers. Same speed when 2 computers are on the same switch, and when they are connected switch-to-switch. This was a HUGE improvement over a gigabit network which maxed out at about 0.95 gigabits.
Was worried whether my investment would actually get close to 2.5 gigabit, especially switch-to-switch, but they did! Two TP-Link switches are linked with a 40-foot in-wall Cat-6 cable, and computers can get 2.3 gigabit between the two switches.
Internet speed tested at 2.0 gigabit download and 910 megabit upload with Google Fiber 2 Gig!
The TP-Links were fully backward compatible with 1 gigabit and 100 megabit devices and switches. Connected various slower devices including a gigabit switch (1gig), a Ubiquiti AC Lite AP (1gig), a printer (100meg), and voice-over-IP box (100meg).
Heat: These TP-Link switches get slightly warm but never hot.
Ethernet Adapters: Using Sabrent 2.5 Gigabit NT-S25G USB 3.0 adapters on all my computers, since none of my computers came with 2.5 gigabit as of mid-2021. I had some auto-negotiation issues on bootup, where the adapter would sync at 100 mbit or 1 gbit (not 2.5gig) when the adapter powered on. After boot, I would manually adjust the driver's speed setting from auto-negotiate to 2.5 gigabit, or 2.5 gigabit to auto-negotiate, which would re-sync at 2.5-gig with the switch. Contacted Sabrent support who also believed the issue was with the latest Realtek driver, a fix may be coming soon.
Another reviewer here believed the TP-Links are responsible for auto-negotiate issues, it may be a TP-Link issue but I'm not sure. When I connected my TP-Link 2.5 gig switches to each other, they always synced at 2.5 gig. Same with the Google Fiber router's 1/2.5/5/10 port which always auto-negotiated at 2.5 gig. Only my Realtek-chip adapters would sync at lower speed on initial power-on. I figured out that by plugging my 2.5gig adapters into always-on USB 3.0 ports via USB 3.0 hub, kept the adapters locked at 2.5 gigabit even after the PC rebooted.
When my adapters did sync at lower speed, a quick re-sync of the driver would fix it. On Windows, Network Connections (Control Panel), double-click the adapter, Configure, Advanced tab, Speed & Duplex, switch it to "2.5 gig full" or "auto-negotiate", either will trigger the adapter to re-try its link to the TP-Link. On Linux, after boot, run: ethtool -s enx002341234567 autoneg on advertise 0x80000000002f (replacing the enx002... with your device name)
Ethernet Cables: My rooms have Jadaol flat Cat-6 cables that range in length from 1-foot to 25-feet, all worked with 2.5 gigabit. My home had professionally-installed Cat-6 in-wall cabling, with some cable lengths up to 40 feet long, all worked with 2.5 gigabit.
Is this worth the price:
If your Internet speed is more than 1 gigabit, then yes! If you transfer files between computers that have SSDs capable of more than 125 megabytes per second, then yes! Otherwise, no. One gigabit is plenty fast for nearly everyone's needs. If you do buy one, you can keep your existing 1 gig switch for your gigabit devices, and plug your multi-gigabit devices into one of these TP-Link 2.5 giggers.

Finally, An Easy Way to Get More Than 1 Gigabit
Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2021
Upgraded my home Internet to 2 gigabit fiber, and home fileserver with SSD storage, so I bought the TP-Link 8-port TL-SG108-M2 and 5-port TL-SG105-M2 to upgrade my home network to multi-gigabit speed. It was easy to swap my old gigabit switches with these TP-Link 2.5 giggers, using my existing ethernet cables.Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2021
