TRENDnet 5-port Unmanaged 10G Switch review (TEG-S750)





TRENDnet's TEG-S750 switch is reviewed. We've been preaching for faster Ethernet for years. This trend has begun with PC motherboards, NAS systems, and routers, but economical multi-GigE switches are lagging behind. Until now.

I've bought a NETGEAR 8-Port 10G Multi-Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch XS508M a good 3-4 years ago and it works great, you can hear the fan but not much, I mounted it under my desk and I can't hear the fan unless I go under it to plug cables
in my market it wasn't as expensive as north armerica I paid like 370USD when it was 450+ on amazon NA and now years later when 10gb is more known oh boy it's 670 ><
there's a cheaper 5 ports one the X505M but with 2022 prices it's a good 476USD on amazon
might be cheaper elsewhere XS505M is around 352$ in Switzerland and XS508M is 407$ at that price trendnet is not worth it at all
real, all ports 10gbe existed for several years but they seem to love pushing their fake overpriced only 1x 10gbe port and all the others are 1gbe switches
this one is also a "fake" but at least it's 2.5gb, and if you wonder why you would want real 10Gb ports everywhere the answer is to transfer large files over several raids/drives at the same time, even HDD if they aren't bad can take a good 1840Mbit/s around 230Mbyte/s easy with 2.5 and only 2 concurrent transfers you'll hit the limit of 2.5gbs

I'm still rocking a 100Mbit switch for my main network and dont need faster
The security network is on Gigabit which is easily enough.
I suppose if I had 10Gbit I might look at ways of using it, but everything is so simple and easy as it is, why spend more to gain complexity.
All my main storage is kept online in my main machine, no need for a NAS. For security I transfer data between machines with a USB NVME drive, they are even IP blocked from each other.
And with todays rapidly climbing electricity prices, the less unnecessary mains devices the better.
That went off at a tangent lol.

What complexity this is no more complex than the 10/100 switch you're already running it's just a shitton faster

HH, you knocked out of the park. again.
thanks for your hard work and diligence.
i'm in the market and i want this. i was waiting for my office 10G switch to be replaced, but that's not happening soon and it's kind of an overkill poe
this is actually a very good price for my applications in my home network. while i do have a wifi 6 router it's only used for phones and tablets, occasionally for laptops, but mainly for guests.
i'm old school and all of my pc's are hooked up with a LAN. originally for security, later for transfer speed.
this looks like a winner.
