Can you use this product with an ethernet switch?

Nope it is not iintended for streaming video its only use is to expand hd video where you wouldn't have and an hdmi or if you need to get video from a source to the tv 150 ft away. Since hdmi cables aren't able to send video and audio over that far of distance without a bbooster because of signal loss...this adapter will come into play.

No.If you had two separate Ethernet cables and wanted to use each of them with the same device, but not at the same time, then this would help you.

I don't see why not it just an inline switch I have it on a table top router table.

If you mean can you send the ethernet/network output into a switch - yes, definitely, I do this at home for a home office. Theother output (the built-in split) is the cable and you'd send that to a TV or set top box, etc - that's not network, but RF.

Greetings,A 5 port ethernet switch allows 5 devices to plug in via the RJ45 ports and connect via etherent.Hope this helps.

I would say yes. But have not tried that exact scenario. I have plugged it in a network Jack that was connected to a poe-switch and it work fine

To my knowledge, no. I use the AC Ethernet adapters for wired connection which work great; I use a cheap switch to get multiple connections from one adapter. For instance, I use the AC Ethernet adapter and switch for to hard wire connect my TV, DVD (or Roku) and PC to the Internet. In another room, I use another Ethernet connected to my HT-WR02 to extend a strong wireless signal in the room and elsewhere around the house. Not sure if all of this information is helpful.

Yes - I would go cable modem to wireless router then from router to switch all with an ethernet cable. This is how I have it setup on my network.

I don't see why not, its just sending a signal down the wire. It does not know the difference between Ethernet, or telephone drop wire or anything else.

This device would not work over a network switch. It transmits raw HDMI TMDS signalling information, not ethernet, so the switch can't understand it.

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.

No, unless you have (1) a router that can generate two free LAN lines that can be fed to the other end of the Ethernet jack, and (2) cable wiring that is CAT5 or newer (true for all new homes/installations). A cheaper solution might be to use a switch such as TRENDnet TE100-S5 5-Port Ethernet Switch (5 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX RJ-45 Ports) that costs only $11.99 and will give you 4 ports instead of two.

The switch is equivalent of you unplugging the device from one computer and then plugging it into another computer. From other comments I see it even works if you extend the output with a USB hub. I see no reason why this wouldn't work.

It cannot be used through a network switch. The cat 5/6 has to be directly attached the unit.

Sorry I can't help. This device did not meet my need. I can't remember now what I wanted it to do. I am doubtful that it would do much ethernet connecting. But please don't take that as fact

Yes you should be able to do that. Just imagine your electrical wiring as a very long ethernet cable once you have hooked up the powerline adapters.

Yes you can use an ethernet cable, I used one for the same purpose and it worked
