Propane Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 whats the best 8 port switch for around 100 USD or less Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 You wont find a good 8 port KVM for around $100.00. Most will start at $350.00. And most good 4-prts will start about $150. I've got a Belkin OmniView 8-Port KVM, and love it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

d3bruts1d Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 Doh.. my bad... You want managed, unmanaged, gigabit?? What exactly are you looking for? I'd go with Linksys, Cisco, or 3Com. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

O(V)eGA_l2el) Posted September 30, 2003 Posted September 30, 2003 I agree with d3bruts1d DLink make some decent switches also but Linksys are best IMO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted September 30, 2003 Posted September 30, 2003 I just received my 8-port Linksys switch model SD208 from Amazon [they were cheaper.] I don't know how good it is yet since I am missing some cat6 cables, but after doing quite some research about Linksys I would say that they are pretty good.

LobbDogg Posted October 1, 2003 Posted October 1, 2003 Yeah I would suggest Linksys, DLink, 3com, or even Netgear. I have owned all 4 at one time, and I couldn't tell you which one was better than the other. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veritech Posted October 1, 2003 Posted October 1, 2003 Both Linksys and D-Link are good, as I have both a 5-power Linksys switch (EZXS55W) and an 8-port D-Link switch (DSS-8+), and both are excellent. (As an aside, check out academic prices if you're a student. I picked up the DSS-8+ at my University for $49 CAD, since it was on special. Regular prices on both brands (8-port versions) were $99 each.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
