I need to put a switch into my home theatre stack and am looking for something without blinking indicator LEDs. I’ve debated taping over them but that looks ghetto and actually requires some precision taping due to the small size and location of the LEDs.
Has anyone come across an unmanaged gigabit switch—preferably 8 ports—without indicator lights?
As an alternative, does anyone know of a managed switch that has the option to turn off the indicator LEDs?
Unmanaged switch with a soft button to turn off all indicator lights (except for power) on the se2800. If you turn off the power you will have to hit the soft button again. You will still have to do something about the power indicator but, nail polish works well and can be applied with considerable accuracy.
As for managed switches, seems like certain models have support for changing the LEDs through a web interface and some you need to hook up a serial cable and terminal emulator to alter it from there.
