You could also set them up, with VLAN support for streamer output on a dedicated LAN port.
If remember my past experience with this CISCO switch, it is certainly possible to setup different VLANs to separate and isolate IP traffic, such as VoIP when these switches are used with CISCO IP desk phones. You needed to TFTP into the switch and run some commands within a terminal.

In fact I am surprised no-one here has embarked on this, isolating their IP traffic between NAS, Server, Streamer and Controller, from general internet traffic on their network.

I have an isolated sub-net, served by a 5-port switch, which is only for IP traffic relating to the streamer and playback purposes.

It’s @simon.pepper post which is the reason of my question Simon.

I learnt some time ago, and heard a surprising difference, that if all the earths are same length and then joined in a star configuration - it makes an inexplicable difference too.
