This little four port switch integrated right into my
network. I didn’t read any
directions, I plugged it in, put a cat5
cable in the WAN port, hooked up my laptop and bingo, it was there. I must say that is so refreshing,
considering the number of supposedly plug and play devices I have looked at
lately that were anything but plug and play.
The device comes with a rack mount bracket that can be
removed. I left it on because it gave it enough height so I could
situate it behind my KVM switch and still see the lights. This is a nice little switch.
