If you want and need a switch, get a damn switch. If they intersperse other terms like splitter or hub, stay away. -- bp part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com On Thu, Oct 24, 2024 at 8:28 AM <ch...@go-mtc.com> wrote: Coaxial T splits ethernet just fine. -----Original Message----- From: Nate Burke Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2024 8:14 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: [AFMUG] Ethernet Splitters I've been seeing Amazon recommend me 'Ethernet Splitters' They appear to just be a switch, but I'm guessing that 'Ethernet Splitter' Makes more sense to the commoners. I guess that makes sense from a marketing perspective. I've probably used the term splitter when describing a switch to a customer. I usually see 1-2 or 1-4 splitters. "1KMbps splitter" that just sounds impressive. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
