What is an AV grade switching power supply?


Received an AV grade switching power supply wall wart with a network switch and wondered if this is any good. Is a linear supply better. Heard switching power supply's are noisy.

Yes I think an AV grade power supply is one that has better noise filtering on board. Like the IFI stuff as was mentioned.  Switch mode power supplies are notoriously noisy, so for AV use, I would think they put in various filters to quiet the noise so the music or video signal isn't affected.
