If you still have the image in the RPi1 can you check if it's using a realtime kernel? Run "uname -a" and see if there is the word RT in there.

Any thought of this Agent Kith?!
very hard to say as the only way to test things is to try it out. Good things about it:
- support jumbo frames
- DC input
- metal case
Bad thing is I have no idea if the switching capacity of 10 Gbit/s (that's 5 ports going full steam uploading/downloading 1 Gbps of data in both directions). Most switches are slow, which can be a problem.
Since you are only connecting BBB to RPi you don't need a switch (forwards data from 1 port to another port). You can use a cross-over cable and connect the two directly (this way you reduce a potential speed issue but you lose the isolation).
If you want isolation, one thing you can potentially try is
this (I havn't tried this myself yet).
