>high performance metal case
what the fuck
>>55153072
Switches get warm.
Metal case dissipates heat.
Normies also like metal/shiny shit.
Metal performs better than plastic at dissipating heat, hence "high performance case"
Is it that hard to understand?
>>55153072
You cheap cunt. Throw that shit in the garbage and buy a Juniper router.

>Boîtier métallique solide
Strong metal case
>>55153196
Wrong.
Solid metal casing.

Same thing

>Buy a Juniper router
>Switch in OPs picture
Router =/= Switch
Furthermore: >Juniper
What the fuck dude. They make some really shitty devices. Especially firewalls are shit
>>55153104
I'm more likely to believe they handed marketing a picture of the switch and told them to write some stuff.
>>55153072
It'll perform better than plastic when you use it to hold up a 24U rack
Fuck off Linus
isn't router with ddwrt can act as switch? I own old Linksys act as a switch + wireless point.

Most routers have a switch in them. Those that don't can indeed act as switches in bridge mode.
I think if it comes to home switches it's unnecessary to discuss which switch is the best, if it's not for a special purpose

A switch is a Layer 2 device, a router is a Layer 3 device.
Layer 3 devices can act as Layer 2 devices but a Layer 2 device can't act as a Layer 3 device.

Someone post that activated almonds image
Trendnet switches are the bomb. Got two, a 4 port and 8 port. all metal. no plastic shit

It's pretty hard to get a true l2 only switch these days. Basically every switch I sell has some l3 functionality

>>55153072
Practically speaking a steel case will perform better than a plastic one in pretty much all conceivable scenarios except for ones involving very large magnets.

>Router =/= Switch
Not true, by the way.
>>55157019
kill yourself
>>55154730
You really don't want a router to do L2.
>>55153104
Un french it reads like "hard metal case", si they only say it's harder
