## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good switch with unique features, but not perfect
*by A***P on July 16, 2020*

I bought two of these switches specifically to create a secondary wiring center in the machine shop that was exclusively powered by PoE from the main wiring center. There are no power outlets in the secondary location, but I wanted a 100% PoE network anyway. BUT, I still needed PoE downstream of the switches. These Netgear PD/PoE switches fit the bill perfectly.Caveats:- If you want to use downstream PoE from this switch, you MUST power it with dual 802.3at PoE+ connections from your core PoE switch. It'll power up ok with dual 802.3af PoE or a single 802.3at PoE+, but there will be no downstream PoE. I was planning to use a LAG anyway, so no problem, but I was hoping the LAG would provide both link AND PoE redundancy... if a link drops, PoE goes away.- Using PoE+ power on the PD ports, the downstream PoE budget is only 22 watts max, it doesn't take much to use that up.- The web interface works fine, no problems at all, no idea what the other reviews are talking about. The only strange issue that I encountered was when I was putting text descriptions on the ports during operating hours: one of the shop guys comes in and says they're all getting kicked off the network. Every time I saved a port description, it reset the port. No other netgear switch I have does that, I can edit port descriptions all day if I want. Odd.- The web interface times out very quickly and makes you login again. I'm sure there's a setting for that, but I've not located it yet.Overall these things do exactly what they're supposed to do, even if there are some limitations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended by IT Pro
*by T***A on November 12, 2020*

Simple plug and play operation for distribution connections in our new home build. Product was highly recommended by son-in-law, an IT pro... now I know why- this works!

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not new technology - This switch is from 2013
*by K***T on July 29, 2021*

While this switch is technically "new" a quick look at the owners manual or the admin interface will quickly show you that this switch was designed in 2013. Do your homework when buying a Netgear switch if you plan on managing with Insight. This switch says that it supports Insight management, but I have had a lot of trouble getting Insight to communicate with the switch. I have likewise had issues getting other models as new as 2019 to connect to Insight. I have had a support ticket open for about a month with Netgear and still no solution.
