Philip sounds like a good deal but who makes v7 and what about service if needed. Don't forget about fan noise if that might be a problem. And check out those SFP ports. Do they require and adpater? If so they are very expensive.
Urban Dictionary: you get what you pay forThanks! This switch looks pretty awesome. Overkill for my needs but it's cheaper than the others.

Damn you guys and your sound logic!! Haha fine I'm getting this one.
If you’re talking about the 16 port, please let us know how you find the fan noiseFunny but I just ordered the one on the bottom the other day.
Will do. It won't be in a closet but in a storage/computer room where my girlfriend Iris lives, so it'll only bother me if it is really bad. Iris has a great disposition and hardly ever complains or gets Blue.
I just purchased the 8-port as well and will be doing a comparison in terms of sound. Hopefully I will stick to the 16-port as I’ll have all 8 PoE ports available to me, don’t want to use extra injectors / splittersGood. A mild hum will blend in with the CPU fan that is usually spinning fairly quickly. The computer is usually running 28 to 45 %. It's reasonably quiet but far from silent. Not quite like my old silent PC where the only thing I heard was the very slight case vibration from the rubber mounted hard drives.

Ordering it now.
Also going to get one of these PoE splitters to test making my indoor cams PoE.

So far so good. It's doing what a switch is supposed to do... frame switching I suppose. Had a slight hiccup after I got everything plugged in. My two windows DNS servers stopped working. I could ping my DNS servers from my LAN but the DNS servers could not resolve their forwarders. A quick unplug and replug of the new PoE switch solved the issue. Not sure what caused it but likely not to be a big issue for most as most people do not run AD/DNS servers at home.Let me know how this switch works out for you.
What will happen if I accidentally switch it? Just wondering. Not too familiar with electrical stuff.That Active PoE Splitter will serve you well Make sure you put a piece of electrical tape on top of the switch which adjusts voltage.

Thanks will do!Lol, its similar to using the wrong charger for a particular device. I can only imagine these cheap splitters not employing autoregulatory control of the voltage. I do have a couple of those splitters connected to my indoor Amcrest PTZ cameras as well--- the PoE splitters came with 5V by default out of the box. Putting out more voltage to these PTZ indoor cameras can have its irreversible consequences to its internal components. Putting a piece of electrical tape over the switch would help.
