Sometimes customers ask whether industrial switches can be used for home use?
A switch can be used at home, but the switch is only used for data exchange, has no routing function, and cannot provide automatic dialing. It is generally used for multiple computer casualties expansion (when the router ports are not enough), I have not heard that it can increase the speed.
