Literally, any simple unmanaged 1Gbps switch will get it done. Don't overthink it, don't overspend.
Will this work:
TP-Link TL-SG108 8 Port Gigabit Unmanaged Ethernet Network Switch, Ethernet Splitter Plug & Play Fanless Metal Design Shielded Ports Traffic Optimization
TP-Link 8 Port Gigabit Ethernet Network Switch.

Ethernet standard is pretty universal, nowhere near the interoperability challenges with wireless.
I use a mix of TP Link, Dlink, Netgear and Dell switches on my home networks.

Pick the number of ports you need now, and in the foreseeable future. One for uplink to router, and then whatever you need. If you just new a couple more, you can go small. I like metal cases and fanless...like this.
