how could you tell it was a 10/100... or even a cisco switch?

it looks more like an old small plane dell powerconnect to me.

the black and white sticker is a dead giveaway

i always felt that the old dell powerconnect line of switches' operating system was a knockoff of cisco's; so i can say with confidence that, that sticker was probably more useful than the old powerconnects. lol

I didn't. It just looks like the fair number of Cisco (and the occasional Dell) 10/100/sometimes Gigabit switches I've seen in junk shops.

I bought a nifty blue Netgear 24-port one mostly because I'm more willing to buy junk from the Humane Society shop, but then decided it was too loud (40mm fans) and went to 2.5G (with smaller fanless switches) instead.

This picture has been jpeg-ified so many times that the details are illegible now

I'm pretty sure it was a Cisco if I'm not mistaken, but I could be remembering wrong
