Airport Extreme looking Gigabit Switch

[mtehonica]

Does anyone know if someone makes a gigabit switch that is the same size and style as the airport extreme? I need more gigabit ports but would like something small to stack right under the airport extreme. Thanks!

Good luck finding one that looks like the AirPort Extreme. One option is getting another AirPort Extreme and turning off routing, DHCP, and wireless making it into a switch. Then you could place it on top of your current AirPort Extreme and connect them with a Cat 5e or Cat6 cable.

Or there are these...

The ProSafe switch is worth the extra costs. I have one, and it's built like a tank.

Yea I am using that exact same 5 port ProSafe on the workbench at my house.

I am also looking for a gigabit switch with the same footprint as the AEBS, to stack it:

Eventually:

     AEBS

I will buy it when it comes out.
