Used and in working condition. I was using this for a cluster of raspberry pi servers and no longer need this. I've had this for well over 10 years using it for various projects.
SpecPicks Verdict
SpecPicks scored NETGEAR FS108 8-Port 10/100 Fast Ethernet Unmanaged Standalone RJ-45… using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the lan-party gear category. Netgear's lan-party gear lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.
Common buyer scenarios for lan-party gear of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent. Check the spec table below against your current setup — particularly socket / form-factor / power-rating fields — and confirm compatibility on the retailer's listing before purchase. Prices and stock are set by the retailer and may have moved since this page was last updated.
