This device looks to use a pair of switching IC.


 * They are not heatsinked and rely on passive airflow for cooling.

This switch is packaged as a 'desktop' formfactor unit.


 * This is to say that the power and network cables plug in on the opposite side of the indicator LEDs.

Hardware revision V1.0R of the TEG-S80g provides link-speed LEDs and a two mounting holes on the bottom.
 * Later revisions of TEG-S80g remove both these features.
 * This may be noteworthy to some, as evidenced by a handful of Amazon and Newegg reviewers.
