Ethernet backhaul - through switch ok?

Douglas Melniker

For ethernet backhaul between two Amplifi Instant devices, do the devices need to be cabled directly to each other or can there be a switch in between?

[Amplifi Instant "Main"] --ethernet--> [3rd party switch] --ethernet--> [Amplifi Instant "Mesh AP"]

Since the AI only has one ethernet port, I need to use a switch to support some wired devices I have, but I also want to use wired backhaul.

Thanks!

@Douglas-Melniker The connection is prefered when it is direct connected to the router, but you can use a switch.
