Purchasing a 1 Gigabit switch implies you gain a 1Gigabit connection to every device connected, meaning full bandwidth availability across all endpoints. For a budget-friendly managed 12-port Gigabit switch, look for options that balance cost and performance without compromising essential features.

This indicates you'll receive 1 gigabit per device, however the total shared bandwidth won't exceed 1 Gbit when multiple devices connect via the uplink to the router.

The managed switch provides details in its specifications about the maximum bandwidth it supports. For instance, my 8-port switch can manage 16Gb/s and 11.9M packets per second, meaning it can handle full capacity in both directions across all ports. https://www.tp-link.com/us/business-netw...ifications
