<p class="MsoNormal">Hola list,</p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cool quiet Saturday night, with a easy question for those already onto the harder stuff...</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">What is available in low cost switches that have SFP+ for 10G? The cheapest I've come up with is a Netgear...<a href="http://www.scorptec.com.au/product/Networking_-_Wired/Gigabit_Switches/58774-DGS-1510-28X">$670 24x1g 4xSFP+</a></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I feel like there must be other options for either pure or mixed SFP+ especially given all the China OEM/whitelabel things floating around DCs these days.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have a favourite, doesn't need to be DC quality, also doesn't need to be advanced purely for layer2 not even MPLS or VLANs. Oh and doesn't need to have a lot of ports. Looking for lowest TCO, not per port efficiency (where I know you can get for a few k a 48 porter from eg Force10 etc).</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Basically the rasberry pi of SFP+ switching... (hmm is that an option, Rpi with some dodgy chinese SFP+ switching modules soldered on?)</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Enjoy the beers!</p>
