In Full switch position could this be used with a variable speed router? I have both types and would use as my power switch on a router table too.

i used it on a hand grinder. it worked at full speed but at lower speeds it looses a lot of torque.

Yes it can. The switch settings are off, on (ignores dial setting) and variable (dial setting slows router). If you just wanted to just use the full on and the off setting, it would start and stop any router.

Full switch position is the same as plugging the router into a wall outlet there is no speed control. Yes you can use it as on off/on switch for the router table with speed control on the variable speed router but you use the speed dial on the router to control the speed.

I'm not sure. However; I wouldn't purchase it to begin with. The switch gave out after low hours and DeWalt wanted almost $200 to replace it for me. I've used the 2 hp Bosch router and I think it is a better choice.

Absolutely. You can do it all on one port and add a switch, or use all the of ports. That's the whole benefit of a real switch/router.

Not sure I can tell you what is best, but we have been using it with a Triton TRA001/TRC001 3-1/4-Horsepower Router and it has performed very well. Table works fantastic and adjustments are very user friendly.

Any electric fan can be outfitted with a variable speed switch/dimmer, as long as the switch/dimmer has the specs to cover the fans wattage. so the answer is yes, but make sure the switch you get can handle the fanns wattage. They make speed controllers for some shop power tools,. this fan draws less juice than most power tools, so that would be a good, likely safe place to aim (but still check).But ultimately this one comes with a speed control built in,. so,.. unless your like me and installed it out of arms reach and you want to put in a remote dimmer,.. the question is moot.

yes and no. If the attached PoE device is 10/100 - no problem. If the attached device is a gigabit device- link will not be established - if the switch managed - then force the ports to 10/100 - then it willl work.

I guess this would only be neede dif I had three or more units, since the router/switch would need a power supplt too. Then again, the switch could use power from a power strip, which is not recommended for the XAV-101.

That is the way I mounted my switch and I really do not think that the position makes a difference. It is a well made and quality product.

The switch is plugged into a power source and your tools plug into the switch.I used this switch on an older craftsman table saw with a router mounted on it. Would simpley unplug the table saw when using the router.Works well.

It's just a switch. It doesn't influence speeds. I bought mine to stop Charter's communication through my E-5 cable before my Firewall was booted up. ~ hnc

No. I have a router to connect me to the internet and a switch connected to the router so I can connect to additional devices in my home. Here is a link to a more complete explanation of the differences between a router and a switch. http://compnetworking.about.com/od/homenetworkhardware/f/routervsswitch.htm

No, you will be taking a big chance of burning it up. It would work if it was the other way around, since the power supply would be lower voltage than the router, not higher than the router.

I would email or call them first Some router tables have a built in switch. The router table switch voltage and amps should be compatible with the routers voltage and amperage. The USA router 1617EVS base triangle hole pattern has a 4" spacing and uses. #10 - 24 TPI machine screws. The 1617EVS 4 hold sub base on a USA router uses 4mm screws.

I haven't used my switch for a table saw but I too have an old Craftsman table saw. And have for years I've used a similar ON/OFF switch mounted just under the front of the table. So I think this should work as well.

I am certain that you can, since the switch is merely directing the connection, but I prefer the other way around. Everything in my home is on the same subnet, and I pre-wired my house for ethernet in every room. I ran the modem to the router, and a port on the router to the switch. From there, every bedroom, living room and kitchen were connected at a central point.

I have the Porter Cable 7518 variable speed 3 1/4 hp in my table. Variable speed is important when running large bit and this router has plenty of power to get the job done. bolt holes in the router base match up to the holes in the table. This router is also very easy to adjust when installed in table.

I doubt it will work through a router or a switch.It is only good directly connected from the device to a computer.Look for a Cirago
