You should buy a 2.5GbE switch if you're serious about networking
Ready to move to the next level? Add a 2.5GbE switch to your LAN if you're serious about creating a smarter and faster home network.
More properties are being equipped with fibre connections, whether to a nearby cabinet from the internet service provider (ISP) or directly to the house. These connections offer speeds over 1,000 Mbps (or 1 Gbps), which can fully saturate a 1 Gbps local area network (LAN). Most ISP-provided routers will only have 1 Gbps ports for connecting devices, but some with faster ports and aftermarket options will more than likely offer superior specifications, so should you purchase a 2.5 Gbps-capable network switch, even if your internet is technically slower?
