    Honestly it’s better than just having a generic name which they apply over several generations, with the only difference being the year at the end (which they might forget to add on some listing’s). So long as it has a simple way to find the size and resolution from the model id, the rest can be kinda funky as long as I can Google it.

    One of my favourite naming schemes is MikroTik’s. CRS312-4C+8XG-RM looks like a mess initially, but it’s very logical. The features of the product are literally in its name:

    • CRS Cloud Router Switch (product name)
    • 3rd generation
    • 12 ports total
    • 4C+ = 4x combo (RJ45 and SFP+) 10Gbps ports
    • 8XG = 8x 10Gbps RJ45 ports (XG = multi gigabit)
    • RM = rack mountable
