We’re moving offices and need to connect 3-4 developers per room to our server. We were thinking of using one small switch per room (6 rooms) and an uplink from each room to the server, the uplinks converging at a central switch in the server room.
I’ve had a look at a number of (unmanaged) 5 and 8 Port desktop 10/100 LAN switches (LevelOne, TP-Link, LogiLink etc.) around 10-20$ but could not find any detailed specs on throughput etc. or any tests if such devices.
Are such devices good enough for above purpose? Are there any tests comparing such cheap switches?
Thanks
