I don’t see it a lot with consumer electronics. Most other network switches I’ve dealt with don’t have as useful names as MikroTik’s.
TP-Link have a switch called the TL-SX3016F. Sure, you can guess that the 16 means 16 ports, but there’s no discernable info other than that. Netgear have names like XS716T which are also meaningless other than the 16. D-link have DGS-1510-20 which is similar (20 ports).

The tp link s= switch x=10g 30 is probably generation or model tier 16= ports F= SFP
