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?

    It is managed, I haven’t seen a FOSS firmware for this. I don’t think it has a Cumulus or OpenSwitch release. If it did I would take that over EOL proprietary.
