The switch from Hikvision is useful for creating or expanding a wired network. If the ethernet ports of the router are not enough for the wired connections of all your devices, a switch will help you. It is unmanaged, meaning it does not offer the ability to configure its settings, which makes it more economical. It is mainly recommended for simple users who simply want to expand their small home network and for small businesses with no special requirements. It has 5 ethernet ports with a maximum speed of 100Mbps. It can be rack-mounted, making it suitable for placement with others, providing multiple ports for an office network.
