Agreed, "6 port 10G switch" is kinda clickbaity. This switch could be great for some topologies, e.g. 10G NAS -> 2.5G x4 worker cluster. But it's not 6 10G ports.
I have this exact switch. A straight cable would do me zero good.

I have 5Gb Fiber service from AT&T. Router on one side of the house.

On a different side of the house, I have this switch. The 5Gb from router goes into one of the 10G ports. The second 10G port is connected to my Mac Studio.

The other 2.5G ports are connected to a couple of 2.5G-capable Windows PCs, and the other is connected to a USB-2.5G adapter connected to a MacBook.

Every device gets at least 2.5G worth of internet and file transfer speed, the Mac Studio gets higher. Aggregate throughput from the switch can still peak at 10Gbps when multiple machines are downloading at once.
The QNAP QSW-2104-2T-A-US 6-Port 10GbE & 2.5GbE is $149 on Amazon. Is the TrendNet $40 better?

I saw the QNAP as well but went with the Trendnet because of the lifetime warranty. I believe the QNAP only has a 2 year. Also, I have read several reviews of people having issues with the QNAP dropping speed, losing connectivity, and requiring constant reboots. I'm sure the QNAP works great for most people but I didn't want to risk it.

Hmm I had hoped it'd be all 10G QSFP+ ports.
Making it only copper seems like a down side vs. using the flexible media interface.

2x10G?. So one 10G in and one 10G out. Better to use one straight cable and avoid this. Am I wrong?

Copper 10gb SFP are expensive...Optical are cheap. 2 10gb copper SFP will cost 80-90. That is why i do all fiber for 10gb.

This seems like a fairly useful way to leverage an existing 10gbe backbone and add 2.5gbe ports to it.

Would potentially like to get something like this or lesser that would be useful for network transfers/computer backups/phone backups running to maybe 3 computers - that would send that all to some kind of backup solution (maybe something like a Rpi 4 with external hard drive and some backup software), but probably want more than 4 ports. Would this be too much for part of that solution?

Edit: I think we currently have either cat5 or cat5e cables

All you need is a cheap 4-8 port 1G switch. Those can be as cheap as $20-$30, but if you already have a Wi-Fi router with 4x1G ports you can just use those ports.

I have the issue with the QNaP and sent for a replacement. My 10g works fine and 2.5G only works if I manually set the speed to 1g. Not very happy but I leaned the lesson not to deal with any 1 or 2 year warranty products. Lifetime is lot better but people will replace their switches before the product dies

Two things:

I've had this for a few months. Rock solid - nothing else on the market that does 10gbe in this price point. It's fanless / does what it says on the tin.

I've seen it at 160 and 150 at times, though I bought it at 179 from B&H - this was still when it was listed as a backorder.

Is there a guide on how to connect a switch to a modem with a router? I'm new to this and was looking into getting 2.5G.

I think it would be one ethernet cable from the modem to the switch and then 1 cable from the switch to the router. Is that right?

I have this mixed in for extra 2.5G ports for my Gigabit Internet/PCs/NAS and it works great. I have multiple other trendnet unmanaged switches for labs and work, zero issues on the fan-less models so far.
