[Pc_Support] ABS 8-Port GbE Switch for $51.99 - $20 Rebate ...

[Bryan J. Smith]

Just FYI, this ABS 8-port GbE Switch is a decent entry-level switch. 
Although it only has a measly 144KiB buffer, it does have the
all-important 802.3x hardware flow control support.  Although Jumbo
Frame support is listed, there is _no_ VLAN support, so all ports
must be using the same frame rate.  There is no indication whether or
not it is auto-MDX (straight/crossover).

It has a standard 3-prong A/C out, no external AC/DC adapter, which
is a very nice touch for the price.
