The question is what small means for you....
- number of ports?
- port speed?
- static or LACP LAG?
- Configurable or smart management type or cloud managed?
- PoE support?
Switches coming into my mind are
- GS305E
- GS308E
- GS308T
- ...

Thanks Schumaku.
5 ports would be adequate.
10/100/1000 port speed will work as long as it auto-negotiates.
LACP LAG preferred.
Configurable/Smart managed preferred.
PoE preferred.
Do you know if Netgear has a chart/matrix that compares/shows the capabilities of their switches?
