STRONG SW8000P, eight-port gigabit switch in a white plastic case review
An eight-port gigabit switch in a white plastic case whose Amazon.com page claims quiet running with "a few fans", and management software with QoS, IGMP and VLAN on a unit sold as plug and play.
Amazon.com listed it on October 26, 2026, but no current offer passed our price check, so no price is quoted. The Amazon.com page exists, but nobody was selling the unit; a listing in that state is often a third-party import.
Models on this shelf that Amazon.com did sell on that date:
The title: STRONG SW8000P 8-port gigabit desktop switch, desktop and wall mounting, white. The bullets: eight ports at 10/100/1000 Mbps; an elegant white plastic design with “a few fans in the case” for quiet operation; no software or configuration needed; desk or wall mounting; RJ45 connections; and a box holding the switch, a mains plug and a manual, English not guaranteed. The description adds management software with QoS, IGMP and VLAN functions, and calls the unit plug and play.

All seven have eight gigabit RJ45 sockets, and none states a switching capacity.
Two contradictions
A switch either has fans or is quiet by being fanless; this page claims fans as the reason it is quiet. And a switch either needs no configuration or offers VLANs through software; this page claims both.
Availability
Amazon.com listed the SW8000P on October 26, 2026, but no current offer passed our price check, so no price is quoted.

The questions that come up before an order
Does it have a fan?
The second bullet says it runs quietly "with a few fans in the case". Every other switch on this shelf that mentions cooling is fanless.
Can it be configured?
The page says both. The third bullet says no software or configuration is needed; the description describes management software with QoS, IGMP and VLAN.
Our score
6.8/ 10
A white plastic switch whose Amazon.com page contradicts itself twice, on cooling and on management. With the Tenda SG108 and the TP-Link TL-SG108 stating fanless, unmanaged designs, there is no reason on this page to choose it.
The buyer this one serves, among network and storage gear
Hard to recommend from this page: a buyer would need to confirm with the seller whether it has fans and whether it can be configured.
What this one costs among network and storage gear
A reference exists on these Amazon stores: France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, United States. Listed is not the same as in stock — availability changes daily.

eight gigabit sockets · metal case · IEEE 802.1p QoS · D-Link Green power saving · no fan, mounting or power statement
An eight-port gigabit switch in a metal case whose Amazon.com bullets are a model number, a package size, a weight and a material, with 802.1p QoS and power saving in the description.
Best for: A buyer who already knows the DGS-108 and wants a metal-cased unmanaged-style switch with 802.1p QoS.
eight gigabit sockets · unmanaged · fanless · desk or wall · 3-year warranty · metal in the title, plastic in a bullet
An unmanaged, fanless eight-port gigabit switch whose Amazon.com page states a three-year warranty and wire-speed switching, and calls its case sturdy metal in the title and plastic in a bullet.
Best for: A desk or wall-mounted unmanaged switch where a three-year warranty is wanted, once an offer is listed again.
eight gigabit sockets · unmanaged · fanless · 124 × 59 × 23 mm · desk or wall · up to 2000 Mbps full duplex

Best for: Adding sockets behind a router or a TV cabinet at the lowest price, where a fanless unit and a small footprint matter.
