Yeah but my system is dead in the water, so went with the BV-tech so back up and running today.

Have another order for you soon for a buddy needs 2 big PTZ's and some other cameras and I'll get the poE switch from you. ;)
 
I bought one on eBay last year from them (refurbish) and it works great. Has been in garage during hot Oklahoma summers.
 
Bought that model (2 uplink) in June. Been working fine in my garage. Using all 8 ports, couple ptz's

Thanks guys. Makes me feel better.
Really not a networking guy, but specs looked good.
 
I have multiple BV-tech switches bought from Amazon. All are working perfectly fine for years. One of the BV-tech 10-port switch lives outdoors in a weatherproof box. Two 8 port switches live inside my media enclosure in house. They are sandwiched next to each other, they can get hot but I have a fan on it. BV-tech is good stuff in my book, low cost, but just make sure you buy new on Amazon. I also bought their single port POE+ injector and that has been flawless for 3+ years as well. BV Tech is my goto for poe devices.

Good choice, I use BV-Tech's 4-port PoE switch in a micro-environment. I use it when bench-testing cameras. I haven't had a single problem and its been running well since Day 1. Its been almost two years now. I have to keep in mind that all of these switches are extremely likely made in the same factory in China; there shouldn't be any compromise in quality. Most importantly, if you have this in a productive / working environment, you'll want a US-based warranty to go with that as well in case anything internally should fail.
