Ethernet Switch- what's the point?

@milpai

I read recently in these instances a long run of optical cable using an ethernet media converter at each end ensures no unwanted noise inserted along the length.

@milpai

I suggest you insert a passive filter like Muon or Muon Pro between the wall ethernet port and your amazing DIY server. And you’re done!

@lalitk : except someone here (like Freddy) will accuse you of pushing expensive stuff to innocent people 😂😂.

I totally agree. I have tried many switches, although not yours, and by far, the Muon PRO beats them all hands down. And it’s very convenient to use, as it is passive (not powered, no need to plug anything on the wall outlet)

Jeff / Earl: my apologies. Not sure who controls the Audiogon posting today, but I thought I’d apologize. You and I are in the same “camp” most of the time (other than The Orange related stuff). But you keep attacking me for some unexplained unexpected reason, whatever that is.
