I don't believe you can use OPNSense on a switch. Switches are in layer 2 typically and have hardware that switches.

Technically you can run OpenWRT on some switches but it is still experimental and it is very much not enterprise grade

OK, so it's OPNsense for routers and OpenWRT for switches and APs?
