The question is:

SWITCH is faster than ROUTER ?
                   because switch is hardware based while router is software based and will be passed to the OS.

ROUTERS
  • used to connect networks together 
  • route packet of data from one network to another routers.

SWITCHES
  • add more intelligence to data transfer management
  • it performs forwarding/ filtering decisions
  • collision avoidance
  • prawn in broadcast traffic however it can defect and record all the device in the network 
  • Loop avoidance
