There are only 3 minor downsides:
0. they have no magnets (I recently added a few from
https://www.supermagnete.de/eng/  to some of them)
1. the PSU (bought in Japan) was only AC 100V, so I have a bunch
semi-useless ones now (they are 12V/1A output); bought good ones from
https://www.pcengines.ch/ac12veur3.htm and they are great.
2. sometimes (few years ago) they had buggy firmware, so configuration
via browser was hanging/not possible until update (via Windoze
program); once updated - all was fine (further updates via browser -
ok)
3. (well, OBO) I have two that are sitting on my ToDo desk for
repair/check - they don't respond to web request (or I botched the
config), although they work fine as switches.

I can spot 6 around me, 3 powered :-D I might have a slight obsession
with those switches, esp. the 16-port version.

Cheers,
Kalin.
