Does the power adapter for this have a high-pitch whine?
A shopper
on Jan 2, 2019
BEST ANSWER: I have not noticed any high-pitch whine, but then most of our installations are in a noisy environment. If you are getting a high pitch whine it is usually caused by a loose winding on the transformer in the power supply.

Can i assign static IPs to devices that i connect to this switch?
A shopper
on Feb 24, 2017
BEST ANSWER: This device is a switch that does NOT assign IP addresses.
To use static IP addresses, the first port of this switch must be connected to one of the ports on your router. The router is the device that assigns either dynamic IP addresses or allows for devices with static IP addresses to connect. To use static IP addresses, you would assign the static IP address to the device (computer, printer, etc..) and then tell the router the MAC address of the device is assigned that static IP address.

Static IPs aren't a function of layer 2 switches, so yes (assuming your network is properly set up, including your router).

Yes, you can assign IP Addresses to other devices that use this switch.
The switch itself will never have an IP Address, that is not how switches work. Switches are transparent to computers on the network.

It can be a LAN booster. However, it requires an external power supply, it can not be powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE). So "no".
