Is this switch easy to install and maintain and is it recommended for VoiP? Thank you.

Yes. I just plugged all my ip cameras in and have had no issues for at least a year. I'm sure VoIP equipment will work fine too as most is class 2 with power requirement of 7 watts. Class 3 requires 15 watts. If you need to setup VLANs I don't think this one can be managed but not sure.

Yes, very easy. I did not even use their software. I just went straight to the switch's IP and use the web interface. Yes, good for VoIP also.

The voip part will depend on the voip PBX and phones you use. For most it will be fine, but if you were to install an all Cisco pbx and phones then this would not do the auto config like a Cisco switch would. We use these as workgroup switches for our Asterix VOIP system of over 50 phones (we have many of these going back in to a 48 port stack.

No, this is a simple unmanaged switch, meaning no configuration or management capability - plug and play right out of the box. You need a more sophisticated managed enterprise switch to configure and support features such as link aggregation and VLAN creation.

It's extremely simple. Just pay attention to the wiring as you remove the existing 3-way switch, and follow the wiring diagram in the box. It took me about five minutes before it was up and running.

really easy. its just a little flip up switch (see the black connector). it also closes/fastens simply too. thus far i have not had any issues.

VOIP works fine on a 6mbps connection, provided there isn't more than 1 user watching netflix,etc. No one complains about poor quality if it is present; we are using it for this reason regularly. The Open-Mesh repeaters do seem to drop off the network for a minute or two at least once a day, no different than the occasional dropped cell phone call.

It has shown great performance so far. It replaced a near 20yr old cisco switch which had reached the end of its service life. No heat problems have been noted. Throughput for large cad files and their revisions are near instantaneous.

Would you recommend this instead of buying the wires and toggled switch separate for cheaper? Also how long does it take to complete the wiring or an estimate time?

I used it to replace a very old 1st generation Vonage router no problems. You just have to have customer service (via chat, or on the phone) provision your adapter. Automated provisioning through the webpage wouldn't work for me.

I connected my WIFI router to my cable modem and then connected the switch to it. It is a much faster switch than I had before. I connected VOIP phone system, computers and Digital TV Tuners to the switch and my ROKU boxes use the WIFI. It is very fast I have two of these switches on my network.

Sorry, I don't use that service in my home so can't reply with an accurate answer. I checked the manual and could find no information about VOIP.

Yes! Obviously, you will need a switch if you plan on having all 25 people wired. Also, this router takes a bit of know-how to actually setup, so as long as your IT department is comfortable with it, you should be fine. This is a solid and reliable router. You can search google for pre-configured settings to apply, then just change the password. That's what I did, and its been working flawlessly since I bought it. Its current uptime is almost 4 months. (meaning, it's been functioning perfect since I finished configuring it after buying it)

So far yes , this is the way to go , I tried the round unifi , did ok but with this unit I rarely loose connection .Make sure you get more than one for failover , easy to manage with the unifi interface .

No this is a desktop switch. If the lack of rack mount hardware is not a deal killer for you it is a very good switch. I have been through several and this is the first one I have not had any problems with

You can. I use Groups to do this. You might want to look into setting up QoS for your VOIP.

I used on PC. Set up was pretty easy though documentation and the website interface for managing the service could be better. I develop websites, so I may be critical due to my nature. I used Ooma to replace Vonage. So far I'm satisfied with the service.

How realiable is this product? Would you recommend it for a small office looking for setting up a redundant Internet connection?
