Ethernet Port Splitter

[Doris]

Hey guys, i was wondering if any of you know of anything like the picture i attached that can hold speeds up to 200mbps. https://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-37133-Splitter-Combiner/dp/B000Q5UMEI

Just buy a switch. Capable of Gigabit bandwidth

if you know how networking works, you know that a splitter wont work. just buy a switch.

So this swithc will support my 200mbps speed? I just want to make sure before i buy it and im lost when it comes to networking.

Is this also capable of supporting my speed? https://www.routercenter.nl/product/90249/category-112340/netgear-gs105-5-poorts-gigabit-switch.html

The D-Link switch I linked has 1000Mbps ports (1Gbps), more than enough to handle 200Mbps. 

 

Yes, that switch is also using Gigabit ports.

Thank you, sorry for the dumb questions haha

I wouldn't buy a splitter, I would either buy a new wired network adapter or a switch

That's not true. You can have multiple devices on the same Ethernet media. It will just be inefficient and the devices will have to do CSMA/CD. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_domain

Hubs worked the same way. Today, switches are so inexpensive that it's not worth it to by a hub, but they would still work.
