So how do i use this device? Do i plug an ethernet cable from my router into the splitter, and then i can use other ethernet cables for other devices?

Yes, simply connect an Ethernet cable from your router into the switch, and the remaining ports can be used to expand your network's Ethernet connectivity. Regards, TP-Link Support

Does this enable multiple devices to be using internet at the same time?

The switch is not a router and cannot replace a router; but it can be used to expand the Ethernet connectivity of your home network. As long as you already have a routed network setup, you can add more, or multiple Ethernet devices using the switch by connecting it to your router. Regards, TP-Link Support

So it says 5 and has five in the picture but is that one input and 4 out put or an input on the side and 5 outputs on the front?

The switch has a total of 5 ports, one of which must be used for input, allowing for 4 output ports. Regards, TP-Link Support

Is this wall mountable?

The 8-port variant determinately is wall-mountable. There are slots on the underside that allow the switch to slide onto screw heads. This is typical for soho equipment. I have a cable modem, 3 routers, and this TP-Link 8-port switch wall-mounted in this manner.
