Wild guess, and assuming it is on 7X24-- an Ethernet over power line
device used in a home.
The ham band filtering is a characteristic of the Netgear brand of
Ethernet over power line devices. Others may filter, but I know Netgear
devices filter.
I located one a year of so ago, which is how I know about it. It was
filtered for HF, but not VHF.
73s and thanks,
