That is a Laird (Pacific Wireless) branded one.  Yes, Tycon had better labels.

 

The current indicator light was useful.  Unfortunately that one doesn’t support 
GigE, plus after 10-15 years we’re having some of them die.  I remember the 
Trango transformer style power bricks with the fuse inside, if the installer 
crimped a plug on the cable and momentarily shorted the power pins, it would 
blow the non replaceable fuse and the power brick literally became a brick.  
And of course there were the original Motorola Canopy POEs with the short Cat5 
cable built in.  Some people loved those, I did not.

Those are the best POE injectors ever.  Tycon sells them now with normal labels 
but in the early days (~20 years ago) we sourced them from some strange places 
and they all had different funky labels.  I wonder who the OG 
designer/manufacturer was.

Maybe written by the same person who designed the label for this POE injector:

Who knows.  The description says 'Hub' at one spot and 'switch' at another.

Are you certain it's not just an old-fashioned hub?

I've been seeing Amazon recommend me 'Ethernet Splitters'  They appear 
to just be a switch, but I'm guessing that 'Ethernet Splitter' Makes 
more sense to the commoners.  I guess that makes sense from a marketing 
perspective.  I've probably used the term splitter when describing a 
switch to a customer.  I usually see 1-2 or 1-4 splitters.  "1KMbps 
splitter"  that just sounds impressive.
