Review on 💡 BV-Tech 5 Port Gigabit PoE Switch: 4 PoE Ports + 1 Uplink – 65W – 802.3af/at by Kyle Pickett

Based on previous reviews I decided to try this POE switch for my new wired ring cameras with POE connectors. The price is reasonable and the device looks well made. Doesn't heat and hardly warms. I needed to run a 120 foot CAT6 cable from my router in my house to my detached garage 100 feet away. I also ran a 50ft CAT5 cable to the front door. After I completed setup, all of my Ring POE cameras were connected to the network. The switch seems to deliver the right amount of power needed to power the Ring cameras and my video/audio is crystal clear. I've had it for a week now and no problems. While I didn't measure the switching and data speeds, videos and notifications arrive on my phone instantly with no lag. I'm thinking of buying another one of these switches to install in my garage so I can expand my camera system and connect more cameras. I use high quality Blue Jean cables with this switch and the whole system is very stable. The only downside that others have mentioned is that the cable entries are on either side of the box, making it difficult to route cables coming from either side. The LEDs also glow on the side instead of blinking on the port itself, but these are negligible as I'd rather have a solid switch. UPDATE: March 2020 - The cameras and PoE box have been working great for many years. No problems, no power outages. Very impressed with this switch.
