What it is

The Jansicotek OZHW7 is a 2.5G/5G RJ45 Ethernet switch selector that lets one computer alternate between two wired networks using a mechanical button. It supports Cat5e through Cat8 cables and draws 3.3 V power from a USB connection. The aluminium alloy housing measures 4 cm by 3.5 cm by 2.1 cm with an 0.8 m lead.

Who it suits

Ideal for users who need to move a single PC between an internal LAN and an external WAN without unplugging cables or rebooting. Not suitable for anyone who requires both networks active simultaneously, because the two ports cannot operate at the same time. Buyers wanting automatic fail-over or load-balancing should look at a managed switch instead.

Installation notes

Plug the USB lead for power, connect the three RJ45 cables, and press the selector button to choose the active port — no driver or software installation is required. The most common issue is forgetting that only one port passes traffic at a time, leading to unexpected loss of connectivity on the inactive network. Ensure the USB supply delivers a steady 3.3 V or the switch may not toggle reliably.

Questions about this item

What cable category is required to reach the 1 Gbps speed this selector supports?

Use Category 6 or higher Ethernet cables with RJ45 connectors to achieve up to 1 Gbps data transfer through the switch.

Can I keep my older Cat5e patch cables connected while using this unit?

Yes, the selector accepts Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7 and Cat8 cables, so existing Cat5e runs will work at their rated speed.

How do I confirm the active port after pressing the mechanical switch button?

The built-in LED indicator shows network status, lighting for the currently selected port so you can verify the connection is live.
