An 8 port ethernet switch, such as the one on my desk here, is
roughly the size of a paperback book. It sips electricity, with
a maximum consumption of about 3W, and has no configuration at
all. Lifetime warranties are reasonably common.

A typical AP needs 10-20W, is a full-fledged computer running a
configurable operating system and has an expected lifetime of
1-4 years.
