NETGEAR's unmanaged JGS524 switch makes it affordable to take Gigabit to the desktop. This unmanaged 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet switch provides high-speed connectivity for small office networks at an economical price a savvy business owner can't ignore. All 24 switched 10/100/1000 ports deliver up to 2000Mbps throughput, up to 48Gbps of backplane bandwidth, and Auto Uplink technology to adjust for straight-through or crossover cables. This high-performance switch can combine 10, 100 and 1000Mbps devices within a network, and is conveniently compact for either the desktop or rack mounting. Ideal for work groups, departments or any small network looking for the ultra fast desktop connections.

Works but noisy

This switch works fine, but really shouldn't be used in a home office unless you can isolate it in a ventilated/cooled closet somewhere. It's really, really noisy. I need a 24 port gigabit switch though but I'm not sure if they all require this type of fan to properly cool.
A poor choice on my part.
What's great about it: Works as expected from a performance point of view
What's not so great: Really jet engine noisy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
