Hi All,
I have a Netgear 16 port 10/100 switch, whose AC power supply just died. The original supply had 5 volts and 5 amps output. I had another adapter lying around with 5 volt 1 amp output - I plugged this one in and the switch works fine.
Can anyone tell me if it is safe for the switch to use this adapter long term? Is it safer if the amperage is higher than 5 volts? Does the input matter?
Many thanks!
