Hello D_Nicholls
The current Smart Managed Plus switches series is already supporting Rate Control for ingress and egress per port.
Have an eye on the QOS - Rate Limit settings (-> Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Plus Switches User Manual, p.41/42. This is the list of available speeds on a GS105PE for example (egress offers the same stepping):
Ensure you get the "current" version - see the GSxxxx[Vnn] on the first page.

Thank you Kurt,
That was a helpful link.
I can now see that It was well worth posting the question to the community.
from the information provided I can see that either the GS105PE or the GS108Ev3 should be suitabel for what I am looking to achieve.
Thank you once again.
Best regards,
David
