I recently upgraded my homelab core switch to a Mellanox SX 6012. It’s 12 ports of 40gb/s, and each can break out to 10gb/s. This switch also idles at 30 watts which was top of my list.

What model switches are you running, and do you like it?

    Cisco 2960S that I got for $100 a few years ago. Works great powering my Ubiquiti APs. Somewhat dated, but it’s always fun to feel like a real “IT Pro” and configure with the Cisco CLI.

      Cisco CLI is still useful to learn, a bunch of other makes (Arista, Mellanox) copy it a good amount.
