Review on πŸ”Œ Tripp Lite TLP810NET Grey Surge Protector Power Strip - 8 Outlet, 10ft Cord, Right-Angle Plug, Tel/Modem/Coax/Ethernet Protection, RJ11, RJ45, & $250,000 Insurance by Eric Kim

100Mbps max for extenders and surge protector

This is a great surge protector for anything but ethernet. The spade connector is great, the cable length is good and the arrangement works well. However, I bought it to manage my network bay. I live in an apartment with poor wiring, so I need to protect both the coax and ethernet from my modem for redundancy. Ten years ago, I wouldn't have had a problem with a 100Mbps speed limit. Today I need a lot more speed in my home office. This device is a blocker on my network. Other reviews say "RJ45 doesn't support x-speed" but that's not true. The connector shape is the same for Cat5, 6,7,8. These jacks simply don't support gigabit speeds.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Upgradeable
