Model: TL-SG116  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I am looking to replace a Cisco 16-port Gigabit switch that I've had running in my house since I built it in 2006 (yes, 13 years!).  That switch still works, but I get pretty slow speeds in my 2nd floor cable runs.  The switch is in the basement, so the Cat-6 cables that I ran through the house can reach up to 125 ft from the switch to the 2nd floor bedrooms and home office.

 

So, I've read great reviews about the TP-Link TL-SG116, but I've seen a few comments that worry me about connectivity for long cable runs.

Can anyone provide any information on performance of this switch with cable runs that reach up to 100-125 ft?

If this model might have inconsistent or poor performance/connectivity for long cable runs, would another TP-Link gigabit switch work better?

 

Thanks!

Andrew
