Hi everyone, seeking some advice here.
I have around a dozen POS machines and printers in total, with LAN cable connections and my idea is to connect them to my Cisco SG95-16 switch. Which I will then connect the switch to my TP link 4G router (MR 6400), providing them with network.
Just wondering if what I mentioned above does work. Or is there a correct way I should be doing it?
Any advice is welcome please help...

Hi Balaji thank you so much for your advise.
As this is my first time using unmanaged switch, I got a bit confused when none of the 16 ports indicate any WAN or Internet labels.
So I'm just wondering which port out of the 16 ports should I connect to the router.

does not matter any port...for easy identification i used 1 or 16 port.

One issue you might run into, Ethernet ports are MDI or MDI-X (some [many, now a days] devices, though, can automatically run in the mode needed, if not, you'll need to use the "right" Ethernet cable, either straight-through or cross-over).
