New 10Gbase-T switch from Extreme networks
New switches from Extreme networks are bringing 10Gb switching to the masses for an estimated $25k list per switch.
At long last a device with 10Gbase-t UTP ports allowing the cost of populating the XFP ports to be eliminated and at $4k each that soon mounts up to a lot of money on a high capacity switch.
Extreme has also made the great step of allowing these units to be stacked, creating a single virtual switch out of up to 8 x 1U devices, now I just need to get a freebee....

there is little information on the product apart from what is on the web, I hope to see some units in the flesh as sson as they arrive in the UK. Launch date is towards the end of the year so I expect code to change before the release date.
