"Coupon Expiry Date July 24, 2025" if you're also on the fence.
There's also a $10 off coupon on the $59.99 8 port version with only one 10G port.
Highly YMMV as I'm guessing many people don't have Amazon biz accounts or got that flyer/promo... but figured it might be a light bulb moment for someone else as well.
Going to replace the four 8-port gig switches. I use them in conjunction with 2.5GB (max) throughput MoCA adapters. My NAS two floors down has 2.5GB connectivity.... so when we push/pull to that, I'm hoping we can take advantage of the 2.5GB.
If I recall correctly, since it's all INTRANET traffic, it shouldn't be bottlenecked by my router... and I'm HOPING my ethernet jacks where I have hardwire running from my basement to main level through the wall isn't using basic gig keystones. If it is, I'm guessing I'll be bottlenecked by those.

Which -- it just hit me -- I'd run into a 2.5G bottleneck once I hit our livingroom anyway. Anything downstream of that on the upper floors is connected via MoCA. I don't do a lot of heavy PC lifting on my NAS -- mostly just movie viewing via Plex on my Shield TVs. 1G seems to work fine, but having a bit of additional headroom for that couldn't hurt. Also, potentially doubling my file transfer speed to/from my NAS would be welcome (even though I'm not doing video editing directly from it).
Rough sketch of my network attached. Essentially, the cable internet signal (gig down / 40 meg upload) hits my house in the basement. Modem hits the router which passes it an 8-port switch. One of the outputs of the switch goes to my NAS (and my Shield TV); another output goes to an ethernet wall switch with an ethernet cable buried in the wall / ceiling which then exits out of the wall one floor up in our livingroom. To get it to the next level up / upstairs, I went the 2.5G MoCA route. One at the origination point in the livingroom; one in my upstairs bedroom and one in my "home office" where I do most of my PC use. We do have Sheild TVs in the bedroom, livingroom, and office (in addition to the basement). So our weakest link is upstairs, but the MoCA does a yeoman's job and I get 800+ down in my office (I think my cable modem caps out around 900 meg -- hardware limitation). So I'm pretty much saturating my INTERNET connection. But since my MoCA adapters are capped at 2.5G, even if I feed 10G at the source (basement), I'm not going to be able to enjoy it all the way downstream due to the MoCA limitations.
Thanks and repped for the advice, tho.
Are you able to get the Nas close to the pc to exclude those adapters? Just to rule that out
