So, for Christmas I got 75m of CAT6 cable and need to get a switch,  What should I look for? What is the managed and unmanaged stuff?

 

All I need it for is gaming, file sharing, basic browsing in one room for LAN party's so no VPN or stuff like that, thanks for the help!

 

BTW I'm in Canada, (N.B )

Get a simple switch, unmanaged.
