#PoE Splitter

[smartzelda]

Finished the Temple of Time recently and let me tell you.

Me watching the transform count continue to tick up after getting the master sword:

Two required transforms after each of the 4 of 6 dungeons post master sword

Because of course Arbiter's Grounds/Gerudo desert, Sacred Grove, and Snowpeak ruins are land locked 🙂

I also severely underestimated just how many times you're forced to transform in these dungeons. I think I had what...11? Eleven transforms for Arbiter's Grounds alone (including leaving the mirror chamber). With just getting all the Poes I was only able to limit the number of transforms down to 5. Essentially 2 each for my first 2 poes and then the last transformation to wolf there covered the last two. My 2 major thwarters of reducing my transforms in that temple were ghost rats (can't get rid of as human), Stalfos (can't get rid of as wolf). My 3rd minor one that is required but still annoys me is 2 required tranforms for Death Sword, and my 4th minor one is that you can't pull boxes into place as wolf Link. And finally, honorable mention...

That time I was in the round room with the moving floor (you turn the stone slab thing to move it up and down) as a wolf, and the game force transformed me so I could get my required small key from a chest😔

Anywho, past me had a question:

The answer? Bad. Or well, it depends on how you look at it

Allow me to elaborate 🙂

So as per challenge rules, I've been wearing the Zora armor since I received it. This means fire and ice attacks do double damage. And yes if you were wondering, on a 3 heart challenge. 1

ONE attack which carries ice or fire damge will kill you. You can game over by ice keese. Due to one hit. This means playing through this temple is a no damage game most of the time, and with the one bottle limit, only one fairy can save you for an extra hit.

Good News: I'd saved a fairy all the way from the Forest Temple because I didn't have a single death up to Snowpeak.

Bad News: I was delivered my first game over of the game because I hit a mini freezard in that first tiny room of 3 mini freezards, it ricochet back and hit me, and I died nearly instantly. After my fairy was gone it happened again (as you must clear all 3 mini freezards to continue). I couldn't just leave and get another fairy due to low tranform rules, so I didn't have a fairy almost from the beginning of Snowpeak Ruins till just before Temple of Time's Argohma fight.

Now I should mention, usually when I play through Snowpeak (even on a usual 3 heart run) and I encounter situations such as Freezards that you can't hit from a distance or while it's spitting freeze breath in a different direction, I allow myself to get hit once before attacking (relying on the fact that I can take at least one hit). Which is very much not possible here. I have taken an embarrassing amount of deaths by Freezard and mini Freezard.

So if we're just looking overall from this angle, the dungeon was not fun and not great, but I faired okay overall. I cleared Blizzeta first try without any deaths or needing to heal.

The reason I labeled it earlier as bad though is because I've been doing a separate tally for funsies in addition to my transform tally. I was curious how I'd fair during this challenge, so I'd started a detailed death tally so I could see my skills

Which...looked amazing for a while, clocked in at zero deaths/game overs up until that mini freezard in Snowpeak ruins. And then...proceeded to die 17 more times (15 more due to ice damage) 😀

But anyways I digress, frustrating as it is, this run has been very fun and interesting so far. I've learned a surprising amount of things that I normally wouldn't freely transforming all over the place

Okay okay I'm gonna play Twilight Princess again soon (I can't stay away from it for long) but I need a bit of help

When I play it again I kind of want to challenge myself to do something. Preferably a challenge throughout playing, but one to do during the run is fine as well.

Here's the issue. I've already beat Twilight Princess on every console it came out on. I've beat the cave of ordeals multiple times. I've done a 3 heart run where I beat the cave of ordeals. I've obtained every golden bug multiple times. I've gotten all the poe souls. I've gotten every item in the game and upgrade. I've collected all the stamps in the wii u version. I've collected all the heart containers/pieces of heart, and I beat the cave of shadows and set things up so I could have a full set of heart containers for wolf link if I scan my amiibo into breath of the wild. I even performed multiple glitches on both the wii u and gamecube versions of the game, including following my favorite speedrun for Twilight Princess from beginning to end.

So...does anyone have any other challenge ideas?😅

Ethernet Splitter vs Switch: Choosing the Right Solution for Your Network

In today's connected world, your network setup plays a critical role in everything from productivity to entertainment. If you've ever faced the challenge of connecting multiple devices with limited Ethernet ports, you're not alone. The two most common solutions are Ethernet splitters and Ethernet switches. While they may sound similar, they function very differently. In this guide, we'll explore what they are, how they work, and when to use each one.

What is an Ethernet Splitter?

An Ethernet splitter is a small, passive device that allows two devices to share a single Ethernet cable. It splits the cable into two paths, letting you connect two devices to one port. Splitters are inexpensive and easy to install, but they come with limitations.

How Ethernet Splitters Work

Ethernet cables like Cat5e and Cat6 have eight internal wires. In a 10/100 Mbps connection, only four of those wires are used, leaving four unused. Splitters utilize these unused wires to transmit a second signal. However, a pair of splitters is required—one near the router and one near the endpoint.

Pros of Ethernet Splitters

Affordable and simple to use

No power required

Reduces cable clutter

Cons of Ethernet Splitters

Only supports two devices

Maximum speed of 100 Mbps

Not compatible with Gigabit Ethernet

What is an Ethernet Switch?

An Ethernet switch is an intelligent networking device that connects multiple devices in a network and manages data traffic efficiently. It provides dedicated bandwidth to each connected device, unlike splitters that divide one stream.

How Ethernet Switches Work

Switches use packet-switching technology to send data only to the specific device it's intended for. They maintain a MAC address table to route data accurately. Switches operate in full-duplex mode, enabling simultaneous sending and receiving.

Pros of Ethernet Switches

Supports multiple devices (from 4 to 48+ ports)

Full Gigabit speeds or higher

Manages traffic efficiently

Easily expandable

Cons of Ethernet Switches

Requires power

More expensive than splitters

Occupies more space

Comparing Ethernet Splitters and Switches

Use Cases for Splitters and Switches

When to Use an Ethernet Splitter

Connecting two low-bandwidth devices

Temporary or budget setups

Reducing cables in small areas

When to Use an Ethernet Switch

Home offices and entertainment centers

Gaming and streaming setups

Small business networks

PoE device connectivity (e.g., IP cameras, VoIP phones)

Ethernet Splitter vs Switch vs Other Networking Tools

Ethernet Splitter vs Hub

Hubs broadcast data to all ports, causing congestion

Splitters are passive but limited in speed

Neither compares to a modern switch in efficiency

Ethernet Switch vs Patch Panel

Switch: Routes data between devices

Patch Panel: Organizes cable connections

Often used together for structured cabling

Real-World Applications

In a home setting, a splitter might work for connecting a desktop and printer in a guest room. However, for more robust setups—like connecting a smart TV, gaming console, and streaming device—an Ethernet switch is essential.

In offices, switches are invaluable. They ensure fast, uninterrupted connections for multiple users, especially in setups involving VoIP calls, cloud software, or large data transfers.

Final Thoughts

Choosing between an Ethernet splitter and switch depends on your network demands. Splitters offer a quick fix for basic needs but fall short on speed and scalability. Switches, while slightly more costly, provide future-proof reliability and performance.

If you're planning to upgrade your network, start with a quality Ethernet switch and pair it with reliable Cat6 or Cat6a cables from NewYork Cables. The right tools today can prevent connectivity headaches tomorrow.

What is a PoE Switch 8 Port?

A PoE Switch 8 Port is a network switch with PoE eight ports, all eligible to provide both data and electrical power over a single Ethernet cable. This technique, known as Power over Ethernet (PoE), cuts out the need for independent power supplies for each networked device, simplifying installations and reducing chaos. In simple terms, an 8 Port PoE Switch acts as the soul of your network, passing around both connectivity and power to numerous devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and far more.

What Does an 8 Port PoE Switch Do?

An 8 channel PoE switch has a dual purpose:

Data Transmission: Similar to all other network switches, it unites several devices within a local area network (LAN) and ensures data packets are competently routed to their hot spots.

Power Delivery: It feeds electrical power to linked devices employing Ethernet cables. This is especially functional for devices put in places where power outlets are hard to find or illogical to set up.

In essence, an 8 Port PoE Switch merge the functioning of a conventional network switch with the stepped up comfort of power distribution, turning it into a crucial tool for both home and business networks.

How Do I Determine if My Devices Are Compatible with a PoE Switch?

It’s crucial to confirm that your devices are compatible with PoE technology before getting a PoE switch. Here’s how you can determine compatibility:

Review the Device Specs: Go over the product specifications or the user manual of your devices. Words like “PoE,” “802.3 af,” or “802.3 at” signify compatibility with standard PoE or PoE+.

Manufacturer’s Information: Visit the manufacturer’s website or contact their support to verify if your device supports PoE.

PoE Adapters: If your device doesn’t natively support PoE, you can often use PoE splitters or injectors to adapt it for use with a PoE switch.

Being compatible is of utmost importance to make certain that your devices can be powered properly free from the need for additional power supplies.

What are the Power Limitations of an 8 Port PoE Switch?

Getting an idea of the power restrictions of your 8 Port PoE Switch is imperative for reliable network planning. Here are some crucials to look at:

Total Power Budget: Every PoE switch possesses a maximum power budget it can provide to all interconnected devices integrated. For example, a switch using a 120W power budget can circulate this power throughout its eight ports.

Per-Port Power: Several PoE standards offer differing levels of power per port. The standard 802.3 af provides up to 15.4 W per port, while 802.3 at (PoE+) offers up to 30W per port.

Device Power Requirements: Ensure that the power demand of your connected devices does not exceed the switch’s total power budget. For instance, if you have eight devices each requiring 15W, you need a switch with at least a 120W power budget.

Balancing your devices’ power requirements with the switch’s power capabilities ensures smooth and uninterrupted operation.

How Do I Manage and Configure an 8 Port PoE Switch?

Managing and configuring an 8 Port PoE Switch can seem daunting at first, but modern switches come with user-friendly interfaces that simplify the process. To get you going, follow these steps:

Connect to the Switch: First, connect your computer to one of the switch’s ports using an Ethernet cable.

Access the Management Interface: Enter the switch’s IP address into your web browser to access the management interface. The default IP address is usually provided in the switch’s manual.

Login: Use the default username and password to log in. It’s advisable to change these default credentials immediately for security reasons.

Configure Settings: Navigate through the interface to configure settings such as VLANs, QoS (Quality of Service), port configurations, and PoE settings. Most interfaces provide guides to help you through this process.

Firmware Updates: Check for firmware updates regularly to ensure your switch has the latest features and security enhancements.

By following these steps, you can customize your switch to meet your specific network requirements, ensuring optimal performance and security.

Can I Mix PoE and Non-PoE Devices on the Same Switch?

Absolutely! One of the significant advantages of PoE switches is their versatility. You can mix PoE and non-PoE devices on the same switch without any issues. Here’s how it works:

Automatic Detection: PoE switches are intelligent enough to detect whether a connected device is PoE-capable. If the device doesn’t require power, the switch simply acts as a standard Ethernet connection, delivering only data.

Non-PoE Ports: Some PoE switches come with dedicated non-PoE ports specifically for devices that do not need power over Ethernet, providing greater flexibility.

This capability allows you to integrate various devices into your network seamlessly, making your network infrastructure both versatile and scalable.

What are the Common Troubleshooting Steps if a PoE Device Isn’t Powering On?

Even with reliable equipment, issues can arise. Here are common troubleshooting steps if a PoE device isn’t powering on:

Check Connections: Ensure that all cables are securely connected and not damaged.

Verify Compatibility: Confirm that the device is PoE-compatible and that the switch port is configured correctly to deliver power.

Reboot the Switch: Sometimes, a simple reboot can resolve connectivity issues.

Swap Ports: Try connecting the device to a different port to see if the issue is port-specific.

Use a PoE Injector: If the switch’s PoE function appears faulty, use a separate PoE injector to power the device temporarily.

By systematically going through these steps, you can identify and resolve common issues, ensuring your devices stay connected and powered.

How Do I Expand My Network if I Need More Than 8 PoE Ports?

An 8 Port PoE Switch is often sufficient for small to medium networks, but what if your network grows? Here are a few options to expand your network:

Add Another PoE Switch: You can daisy-chain another PoE switch by connecting it to one of the existing switch’s ports. This allows you to add more devices while maintaining power delivery and data connectivity.

Use a PoE Midspan: PoE midspans, also known as PoE injectors, can be used in line with your existing switch to provide additional PoE ports without needing to replace your switch.

Upgrade to a Larger Switch: If your network demands significant expansion, consider upgrading to a switch with more ports, such as a 16 or 24 port PoE switch.

Network Segmentation: Create separate network segments using multiple switches, which can help manage traffic more efficiently and improve overall performance.

These options provide flexibility in scaling your network to meet growing demands without compromising on performance or connectivity.

What Should I Consider When Buying an 8 Port PoE Switch?

PoE vs Non-PoE: Choosing the Right Network Solution for Your Setup

What is PoE and How Does it Work?

Ethernet cables can now send data and electricity to linked devices thanks to a technology called Power over Ethernet (PoE).

This makes installation easier and reduces cable clutter by doing away with the need for separate power supplies.

PoE is frequently used to power network equipment like VoIP phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras—particularly in areas where installing electrical wiring would be costly or difficult.

It functions by utilising standardised protocols such as IEEE 802.3af (PoE), IEEE 802.3at (PoE+), and IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++).

These protocols provide varying power levels to accommodate different device needs,   making them a flexible and scalable solution for contemporary network configurations.

What is a Non-PoE Setup?

Standard Ethernet switches that only send data—not power—are used in non-PoE configurations.

Each connected device, including desktops, laptops, printers, and standard network devices, needs to be powered by an external source or adapter in these kinds of setups.

Non-PoE switches are frequently utilised in settings where every device is already close to a power outlet, negating the need for separate Ethernet power delivery.

For standard office or home networks where sophisticated or remote power management is not needed, this configuration is adequate and reasonably priced.

Key Differences Between PoE and Non-PoE

There are a number of significant distinctions between PoE and non-PoE configurations.

The most important factor is power delivery; PoE switches can send data and power over a single Ethernet cable, while non-PoE switches only send data, necessitating that devices have their own power sources.

Because PoE switches have more features, they are typically more expensive. While non-PoE setups require separate power lines, which increases cable clutter, PoE simplifies cabling by requiring fewer cables.

Last but not least, PoE frequently shortens installation times, which makes it perfect for remote or large-scale deployments where efficiency is essential.

Use Cases: When to Choose PoE or Non-PoE

Depending on the needs of the network environment, PoE and non-PoE configurations have distinct functions.

PoE is perfect for powering devices like VoIP phones, IP surveillance cameras, wireless access points (WAPs), and smart building automation systems that are frequently placed in remote or difficult-to-reach areas.

By doing away with the requirement for independent power sources, it streamlines deployment. However, non-PoE configurations work best in conventional office settings where desktop computers, printers, and laptops are already near power outlets.

They are also a sensible option for small-scale or cost-sensitive networks where PoE is not required.

Final Thoughts: Which One is Right for You?

The size of your network, the kinds of devices you plan to connect, and the physical setting of your installation should all be taken into account when choosing between PoE and non-PoE.

PoE is a scalable and practical solution that offers centralised power management, which makes it perfect for expanding networks and contemporary smart infrastructures.

Despite its limitations in terms of power delivery, non-PoE is still an affordable option for configurations where advanced features are not needed and power is easily accessible.

PoE injectors or splitters can be used to create hybrid networks for mixed environments, which enables the effective integration of both kinds of devices within a single infrastructure.

Choosing the Right Smart Switch for Your Growing Network Needs

Let’s talk about your network. You’ve added more devices, your team’s grown, and suddenly your old setup feels like a tangled mess of cables and lag. The fix? A smart switch. Think of it as the backstage crew of your network quietly managing traffic, powering devices, and keeping things running smoothly. But with so many options, how do you pick the right one?

Enter the Netgear ProSAFE JGS524PE. This 24-port smart switch is a favourite for small to mid-sized setups, offering Power over Ethernet (PoE), easy management, and enough muscle to handle growing demands. But whether this model’s your match or not depends on what your network actually needs. Let’s simplify the hunt.

What Makes a Smart Switch “Smart”?

Unlike basic switches (glorified cable splitters), smart switches give you control. Need to prioritize video calls over TikTok binges? Set up Quality of Service (QoS). Want to split your network into secure zones? VLANs have your back. And PoE? That’s magic for powering gadgets like security cams or Wi-Fi hotspots through Ethernet no extra outlets needed.

3 Things to Ask Before Buying

How many devices do I need to connect? Count your wired gadgets now, then add 25% for growth. The JGS524PE’s 24 ports work for offices or studios, but a coffee shop might thrive with 8.

Do I need PoE? If you’ve got IP cameras, VoIP phones, or wireless access points, PoE is a game-changer. Just check the switch’s total power budget some can’t juice all ports at once.

How techy do I want to get?

Unmanaged switches: Plug and play. Zero drama.

Smart switches: Light customization (QoS, VLANs) without a PhD in IT.

Managed switches: For control freaks who love granular settings.

Most growing networks hit the sweet spot with smart switches.

Don’t Make These Mistakes

Overbuying: A bakery doesn’t need a $1,000 enterprise switch. Start small, scale later.

Ignoring Heat: Shoving a switch into a closet? Make sure it’s got cooling fans or vents. Fried electronics smell worse than burnt toast.

Skipping Labels: Trust me, you’ll forget which cable goes where. Color-code or cry later.

Why the Netgear JGS524PE Works for Many (But Not All)

This switch’s PoE+ support, cloud management, and 24 ports make it a solid pick for offices, schools, or creative studios. But if you’re just running a cozy home network with three devices? Save cash and space with something simpler.

TL;DR

Your network’s needs are as unique as your Spotify Wrapped. Match the switch’s ports, PoE budget, and brains to your actual setup not the flashiest specs. And if you’re eyeing the Netgear ProSAFE JGS524PE, ask yourself: “Do I need 24 ports, or am I just being extra?

Now go forth and untangle those cables. Your future self (and network) will thank you

Network Video Recorder    

NVR security camera systems use cutting-edge technology to deliver a more robust, feature-rich surveillance system. As a result, NVR-based surveillance camera systems, also known as POE surveillance cameras, are more versatile and advanced than DVR systems.

Type – IP Camera

NVR systems analyse visual information at the lens rather than the recorder and are far more resilient than their DVR counterparts. IP cameras, stand-alone image capture devices, are used in NVR systems. Each IP camera has a chipset that can analyse video data before transferring it to a recorder.

Ethernet Cable

NVR systems, like DVR systems, connect the camera to the recorder. However, how the camera is linked to the recorder is very different. Professional installers prefer ethernet connections over coaxial cables for a variety of reasons, including:

The Ethernet cable powers the camera utilising Power over Ethernet (PoE). This implies that your camera requires one wire to record video, audio, and charge, eliminating the need for bulky splitters like a DVR system.

The Ethernet cable is thinner and has a smaller connector, so it is easier to route and terminate.

Ethernet is less expensive and more widely obtainable than coaxial cable, allowing cable maintenance and system extension to be more accessible and cost-effective. Many new homes and businesses are Ethernet-wired, making setup even more accessible.

Ethernet can transfer audio data natively, so every camera on the platform can broadcast audio.

Recorder

The recorder in an NVR system does not interpret video data and gets completed at the camera before the broadcast. Instead, it only saves and views the footage.

System Adaptability

NVR systems are more adaptable because video surveillance does not have to be attached to the recorder. Instead, only IP cameras need to be connected to the same network. As a result, you might have cams all over the place on the same web that interface to your NVR to form a comprehensive system.
