This is nicely designed switch, very solidly built. It can be mounted on a DIN rail and it comes with a bracket to mount it elsewhere. These are sold under different names but the name on the switch is Zhipu.
It has four 1 Megabit RJ45 jacks and an SFP jack. I installed a multimode SFP Transceiver, which you have to supply, and connected to another media converter, providing an isolated optical link to the switch. Everything worked as it should. The port complement is good for a small setup with multiple devices.
Note that this does not come with a power supply. One has to be wired up to the supplied connector. It says it can take between 12 and 48 V. I tested with a 24 V supply.

This is a nice industrial switch. It works well for my application providing some extra ports in an environment that gets really warm. Haven’t had a failure yet and all packets have passed just fine. Very Happy so far.

**Update**
I was having a few issues with the POE not working as expected. The customer service I received when messaging the company was outstanding. Due to the fantastic service I received, I have changed my review to 5 stars.
************
I am upgrading my property network. I currently have 2 internet services to cover both my home and my shop. Everything is run with cat5e right now, and that has lead up to a host of issues, most of which are loss of several thousands of dollars in equipment and computers/tvs in a lightning storm last year. I have now obtained everything that I need to isolate both my wireless internet and my starlink via fiber. My big shed has my tower right off of it and has a POE switch and a wireless AP on it. Now all my networking/internet hardware is mounted in the shed and has a fiber run going to both my shop and my home. I am now just a single network with load balancing and runs at 1G speeds.
Pros: Nice form factor with DIN rail mounting. 8 Gigabit POE ports and 2 SFP ports. Outer case is a heatsink. Worked out of the box with no issues.
Cons: NO POWER SUPPLY INCLUDED. There is no power supply shipped. This needs a 48v supply. It wouldn’t have been so bad if it required 24v, but it is 48v and made finding a power supply not only expensive, but difficult to find one with the output needed. This wouldn’t be as much of an issue if I was using it in the same room as my 48v solar setup, but it is not.

This PoE switch has been perfect for connecting and powering my home security cameras. Setup was a breeze, and it’s so convenient not needing separate power cables for each camera.
Since I set everything up I have had no connection issues and everything has been smooth sailing.

I use this switch to run my outdoor POE cameras. This form factor switch is rack mountable and is very compact. I purchased a 48V power supply that I also attached to a 1U bracket for my server rack using a Din rail. I then ran this to my main switch and ReoLink NVR giving me access through the app and from my network. I have begun to remove wireless cameras and hot spots to reduce my surface area. This switch works fantastically and is just what I was looking for.
