STRONG prints the switching capacity and the case material
An eight-socket gigabit switch, a powerline pair and a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 repeater.
The switch publishes a switching capacity of 16 Gbit/s and states that its case is plastic. Neither figure changes what the unit does, and both are what make the page comparable with the one beside it instead of merely trusted.
The powerline pair states 600 Mbit/s over the mains and 100 Mbit/s at its Ethernet sockets, on the same page: the socket is the ceiling, and this listing does not hide it. The repeater writes AX3000 as though the class name were a figure in megabits, publishes 2976 beneath it, offers an access point mode and then names no Ethernet socket to use that mode with.
Wi-Fi 6 · AX3000 over 2976 published · two 5 dBi adjustable antennas · repeater and access point · no Ethernet socket named
A Wi-Fi 6 repeater whose title turns a class name into a rate — AX3000 Mbit/s — and which offers an access point mode without naming a socket.
Best for: A wireless extension for Wi-Fi 6 clients where the antennas can be aimed and nothing at the far end needs a cable.
HomePlug AV2 · 600 Mbit/s stated · 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet sockets · no pass-through outlet · 128-bit AES by button · unit count not printed
A HomePlug AV2 pair whose headline figure is six hundred and whose Ethernet sockets are published at one hundred, both stated on the same page.
Best for: A television or a set-top box at the far end of a flat, where a hundred megabits are enough and the wiring is simple.

eight gigabit sockets · 10/100/1000 Mbit/s · 16 Gbit/s switching capacity stated · fanless · plastic case · desk or wall
An eight-socket gigabit switch that publishes both the material of its case and a switching capacity, which is two answers more than most of this shelf gives.
Best for: A room that needs eight quiet wired sockets and a unit light enough to hang on a wall, where a plastic shell is a fair trade for the price.
