What is the best affordable compact Gigabit smart switch with SFP and web-based management for home and small office networks?

The MikroTik RB260GS (CSS106-5G-1S) is a five-port Gigabit smart switch with one SFP cage, browser-based SwOS management, VLAN support, traffic mirroring, and bandwidth limiting — the most affordable fully managed Gigabit switch in MikroTik's lineup.

The SFP cage adds fiber connectivity for connecting to a remote switch or ISP uplink.
