## Description

The TL SG108E 8 Port Gigabit Easy Smart switch is an ideal upgrade from an unmanaged switch, designed for Small and Medium Business networks that require simple network management. Network administrators can effectively monitor traffic via Port Mirroring, Loop Prevention and Cable Diagnostics features. To optimize traffic on your business network, TL SG108E offers Port based/802.1p/DSCP QoS2 to keep latency sensitive traffic moving smoothly and jitter free. Additionally, port based, tag based and MTU VLAN can improve security and meet more network segmentation requirements. Moreover, with its innovative energy efficient technology, the TL SG108E can save up to 58 percent of power consumption, making it an nature friendly solution for your business network. TP LINK’s Gigabit Easy Smart switch, TL SG108E offers network monitoring for users to observe traffic behavior. With Port Mirroring, Loop Prevention and Cable Diagnostics features, TL SG108E can identify and even locate connection problems on your business network. Moreover, administrators can designate the priority of the traffic based on Port Priority, 802.1P and DSCP Priority, to ensure that voice and video are always clear, smooth and lag free. Additionally, to improve security and network performance, TL SG108E supports MTU VLAN, port based VLAN and 802.1Q based VLAN functions. TL SG108E is an upgrade from the plug and play Unmanaged Switch, delivering great value while empowering your network and similarly delivering great value to the end user. You now have the choice to go green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This new generation of TL SG108E 8 Port Gigabit Easy Smart Switch features the latest energy efficient technologies that can greatly expand your network’s capacity with much less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to the link status and cable length to limit the carbon footprint of your network. When a computer or network equipment is off, the corresponding port of a traditional switch will continue to consume considerable amounts of power. The TL SG108E can automatically detect the link status of each port and reduce the power consumption of ports that are idle. Ideally, shorter cables would use less power with less power degradation over their length; this is not the case with most devices as they will use the same amount of power across the cable regardless of whether it is 10 or 50 meters in length. The TL SG108E analyzes the length of the Ethernet cable connected and adjusts the power usage accordingly, rather than keeping the power consumption in a conventional solution. TL SG108E is easy to use and manage. Auto MDI/MDI X crossover on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance. Its compact size makes it ideal for desktops with limited space while also being Rack mountable, convenient and safe. Dynamic LED lights provide real time work status display and basic fault diagnosis.

Review: So far, so good! - I’ve been using this connector several days now, and it’s working as expected. I’m using it plugged into a WiFi extender to hardwire our TV and PlayStation. This is giving us faster and more consistent connection. Even though we have fiber internet, the location it was installed in our house is not central, so we’ve had to do the extensions. And our Sony TV’s internal WiFi won’t keep a connection (a common issue for Sony TVs), and game downloads were taking too long as well as not being able to play a live game while downloading. This little box has fixed the issues. It really is just a plug-and-go item. Super easy and you don’t have to be techy to understand how it works. Keep in mind that one port will be dedicated to the WiFi box or extender, so buy the size you need accordingly. If you’ve got 6 devices to connect, you need at least 7 ports. I didn’t know what “looping” was, so after looking into it, I left that switch to “off.” It was not recommended, and warned of slowing speeds and mixing up devices. It’s working great so far. TV connection hasn’t faltered since switching to the box (and not directly into extender box). And the PlayStation downloaded a game in 5mins that, unwired, estimated 30mins! My husband was very happy. He then downloaded Cyberpunk 2077, which is a huge file. When he tried downloading it unwired, it quoted like half a day, lol. Hardwired, it took less than 1.5hrs, AND, at the same time, he was able to play a college football game that uses the network for live play. One thing to note: this did change our IP address, so when we went into Hulu after getting it connected, we got the “it looks like you’re not at home?” message. We had to “update our home location” even though we didn’t really move. You get 4 of these home changes a year, so just FYI. I’m sure Hulu is familiar with this and would work it out if you don’t have any home address changes left, but the hassle and time would be annoying. Overall, I couldn’t be more pleased. If this box stops working after a time, I’ll update my review. But for $12.50 on sale, it’s a steal. The box itself seems quality and well made. It’s got a weight to it and was packaged well. Definitely recommend.
Review: Fast & Easy-To-Use! - Edit 11/21/2025: I periodically like to perform check-ins on my previous reviews. Over 3 years later I am happy to say this thing still works flawlessly. Haven't encountered a single hiccup. Very consumer friendly and is truly "set it and forget it". ----------------- First off I need to mention that desertcart asked me to rate 3 "features": 'WiFi signal', 'Tech Support', and the 'User Interface'. Let me be clear that this device does not use WiFi and it does not have it's own local IP address to let you log into a "User Interface". Just wanted to point this out in case you come across other reviews that have these two "features" rated that could be misleading you. I recently built a house and had it wired for Cat 6 Ethernet, with there being 1 wall port in each room. One room in particular I have a desktop PC and an Xbox that I wanted both to have a wired internet connection to which is what required the purchase of this device. It is extremely easy to set up, and with it being "unmanaged", there was no portal I needed to sign into that would require me to mess with settings. It's a very simple "plug-and-play" set up, you simply need to connect an incoming ethernet cable from your router/modem (in any port) and then you can now share that internet connection to 4 other wired devices - that's all there is to it. One important note is this: if you have a modem-only device (these devices usually only have a single ethernet port on the back) then you are probably needing a router - not a switch. A router is capable of assigning your devices their own internal IP addresses via DHCP - which is important if you don't know how to assign them yourself. It's also what manages your NAT for situations your devices may need to use the same internet port number. While you don't necessarily need to know what all of this means, you need to understand that a switch is not a replacement for a router. If you are a consumer (as opposed to a business) then you're likely considering this switch to extend/add more ports than what your router has (they usually have around 4 or 5). Even the devices that are connected directly to this switch will still be getting their local IP addresses assigned from your router. The benefit of this switch over a "hub" is that it knows how to route your internet traffic to your devices. So even though it's not responsible for assigning IP addresses to your devices, it knows how to route specific traffic to the devices that require it. It does so lightning-fast - I notice absolutely no additional latency (which is great for gaming) and no compromise in speed either. If you're on the market for a small unmanaged switch, then this is an affordable and excellent choice... A hub, on the other hand, will route all traffic it receives to all devices that are connected to it (they do not 'switch' traffic to specific devices), which essentially requires the devices themselves to ignore the traffic it doesn't want. It adds additional overhead and can potentially cause dropped packets and they just essentially add additional network congestion. I could see a hub being used for something like printers or IoT devices where latency isn't critical, but I think it's ultimately beneficial to just not use them at all even though they might look similar to a switch. And as I've said above, this device does not contain WiFi. You cannot connect this wirelessly to any device. You would be able to purchase a separate device that would connect to this to transmit a wifi signal, but this will not do it on its own.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No complaints, meets all expectations
*by T***S on January 12, 2026*

The device works as expected. It is used to split an Ethernet (internet) connection from a router to multiple devices in an entertainment center, efficiently balancing traffic with low latency across all connected devices. Keep in mind that one port serves as the input, while the remaining four function as outputs in this configuration. No setup or configuration is required—the device is truly plug-and-play and works immediately as intended. I recommend this for anyone who wants the accessibility of a network switch without having to program or manage one. This un-managed switch is a great option.
