## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this unit work on overseas power?**
A: Mine came with an internal power supply (no external power block) and it had 100-240V input, so no problem with overseas power.  The smaller 8 port gigabit Netgear switches (GS1098A) came with 110V power adapters, so I had to get different power adapters for those.

**Q: Being poe,  what happens if i plug in my computer or laptop to the switch  does it damage  non poe devices   ?**
A: Connecting a non-PoE device to the JGS516 will not damage it and it will just establish a connection to the switch.

**Q: what is the depth of the switch**
A: The switch dimensions are 1.7 x 12.6 x 6.7 in. Rack mount ears are included for mounting in a standard 19" rack.

**Q: Im looking at the jgs516 model. will this work well for ps4 lan party gaming? i plan to link 10 consoles for lan gaming.**
A: Yup!  It's thousand base networking, you should be good.  You'll need a router or something that can be a DHCP server though, it doesn't do network address allocation.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far so good... and NO fan at all!!!
*by J***N on August 15, 2013*

!UPDATE!It's been a little under A year that I've had this thing and NO problems at all. I love it! All the ports work perfectly and I can't seem to notice a decrease in speed when the network is being jammed with data. I never have to restart this switch (the only times that it does get turned off is when the power goes out/flashes) so it's always on and doesn't usually get a break.This switch is amazing, and so is all of net gear's stuff!!! I have never had a single problem with anything from net gear (now Cisco is a different story haha).I purchased this switch on August 10, 2013 (Received it on August 14, 2013). I opened it up and simply plugged in all my Ethernet cables and powered it on... boom my network came alive. It's really that simple. I do not have much to say about it since I have only had for a short while now... but from what I can see it is working properly.The main reason I have reviewed this product so early in my time using it is that I wanted to cover the fan. Pretty much every review has said something about the noisy little fan. Well... the unit I received plain didn't have a fan at all! I have noticed a pattern in the reviews that mentioned the fan. The later ones (2009-ish) stated a noisy fan... and the ones earlier (maybe late 2010-2012 stated a quieter fan) and recent reviews (early-mid 2013) stated no fan. I have just come to believe that netgear has done away with the fan due to bad reviews. Also, the unit that I received looks difference than the one in the picture - The 2 groups of 8 ports are spread apart more in the center and the status LEDs are way over to the left (The picture has ports to the right and LEDs more toward the center). I didn't mind this for it doesn't matter (the unit still functions) but I felt it should be stated for some random reason.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Netgear Network Switch
*by M***W on July 10, 2009*

This product is a no brainer. Plug it in, attach your network components and you're done. Works with my two workstations, wall jack for intermittent notebook use, my Wii, my Verizon Hub and modem, addt'l downstream switches of different manufacture, network storage, you name it.REALLY wanted to try the Cisco/Linksys product since that is what I have for other network products but after repeatedly reading negative reviews concerning longevity, I went with Netgear. Have had it about 2 months now so I really can't offer an opinion on Netgear's reliablility but the existing reviews were far better than the competition.I have mine located in a downstairs office where ambient temp is always in the low 70s. I can barely hear the fan when I am sitting next to it on one of the work stations. In any other similar location, I would not consider fan noise to be an issue.---UPDATE 01 Oct 2010:Have had it over a year now and have had NO issues, still works after power outages, spikes, surges, you name it. Boots right up and stays up...until the power goes out again (sigh).---UPDATE 28 May 2011:Flawless. I'm not holding my breath any more. Giving every impression it'll outlast me.---UPDATE 04 Dec 2011:Still going strong....no glitches...power outages don't phase it.---UPDATE 03 Sept 2012STIll going strong. Two more power outages and keeps on ticking. Forgot to mention, during the outages, I run a 6.5kw generator which does seem to phase some things like UPS's but I unplug this item from the UPS and plug it straight into the outlet powered by the generator. No problems.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to use, plug and play.
*by M***O on July 9, 2025*

Good quality switch. Easy as plugging in network cables and done.
