That said, fair warning the switch is VERY light. Light enough that I had to tie up the power cable and ethernet cable that drooped off the edge of the desk, as they were lifting the front of the switch off my desk. This doesn't necessarily speak to the quality (there's no much even to a nice switch), but be aware. The plastic case is very basic, though they did provide a nice, attractive design, and a textured matte plastic casing in two colors.
Does its job, fast, easy, and without pain. Perfect.
This is a small 4" x 3" box, and I put something on top of it so it actually doesn't take up any premium space sitting on my router table.
*IMPORTANT - this does not come with any cables. If you are buying it to extend your ethernet port sockets on your router like I did, you will need to buy a short cable to connect this to your router!
I happened to have an old cat 5 short cable from an old modem laying around to connect it... but cat 5 is an outdated cable type which limits you to only 100 mb. This is plenty for most people, but if you have a very fast internet speed or don't already have a short cable from an old router/modem, you will need a cable, and cables are not included.
I recommend you buy a short cat 6 Ethernet cable when you order this. I myself are waiting for my new cable to arrive from Amazon, just to have an updated cable. I found a 1' long cat 6 cable on Amazon for $.99 (a dollar). I didn't want to order a $1 item from Amazon by itself, so I waited til I had another order to tack it to. I still don't have it yet. Save yourself some time and buy your cable with this unit.
Tip: the longer your cable, the more data drop off you have (it's not a lot, but with data, speed matters), so always buy the shortest cable to get the job done (this is true for monitor cables, ethernet cables, basically any/all data cable).
I hope this is helpful!

Works really well. Best part is the adapter plug,Connectors are on one side and LED is on other side, so gives a clean look with all cables connected. The socket plug is not Indian as seen in pictures.
Bit expensive than other options available but 100% recommended.
