Netgear GS108LP switch not working (files.catbox.moe)

Hi, I've bought a Netgear GS108LP and it seems that it isn't working correctly. As you can see in the video, when I power the switch on, the right LEDs (PoE Mode) flash yellow for about 1 second, but the left LEDs (Link/ACT Mode) don't show anything. The cable connected to port 1 is directly connected to my router and the cable in port 5 is connected to a Philips Hue bridge. I'm sure that both cables work, because they work with other switches. I've already tried different cables too, but it's the same result. Has anyone an idea how I can fix this issue? Thanks

If there's a rest button somewhere there, use it.

Also, check whether it gets proper amount of power - that the electrical plug fits in, doesn't mean the charger is enough to power it up.

If it fails, then I guess it's time to replace the hardware.

There is no reset button since it is an unmanaged switch, so it's just plug and play. I'm sure it gets proper amount of power. The support now just told me that the best would be to just get a replacement.
