12) 1G/10G SFP+ Ports and (4) 1G/10G RJ45 Ports

Its Ubiquiti.. but its down from $650 since February if you have compatible cables\transceivers

These work great with it, I often find them in batches for less than $10 each:

I heard their security is top notch

I'm not following what you mean.

I believe that was sarcasm...but to be fair the vague sarcastic reference is not to their Uninfi switching or AP product lines...

Ubiquiti network gear can be 'hijacked by an evil URL' – thanks to its 20-year-old PHP build

And Cisco has a telnet bug for password less auto config.
What exactly is the point ? All switch management should be in a secured vlan right as extra protection)

You're right... it's to the company as a whole.


I do run their AP, but you won't see me buying their security based products!

How would this compare to an LB6M. I like that it has the RJ45 connections... Noise doesn't matter. I really just want to connect all of my servers to 10GBe together. Right now all four are SFP+ and I have a Dell X1052. But I want to add one more server...so now I need one more port. So this or the LB6M? This one feels more future proof. I don't really need layer 3 at all.

I have been running two of these with an X1052 hung off it for several months now without any issues.

Thanks.

I've got two of these running in production for cluster communication and replication, and they've been solid.

well, that's not right, as isnt the comment above.

they have 1 leak in an old PHP in the airOS , and all their stuff's bad ?

do you need me to list all the bugs,flaws and leak in Juniper, Cisco, fortigate that have been discovered over the last 2 year year ?

btw their fix took 3 days, i believe that's something either Juniper of Cisco still need to lear.
remember a certain BGP leak that too juniper a whoaping year to fix

Let's keep this thread focused on the Deal/product. If you guys want to have a debate regarding security practices of hardware vendors I invite you to open a new thread in the relevant forum.

Ok - focussed on this switch.

The 10gbase-t ports don't work with most embedded Intel 10gbase-t nics. Very few DAC cables work right. And it's super finicky about the optical sfp+ plugs you use.

Ubiquiti knew about these problems in December during their beta program but decided to GA release the switch anyway. Read their forums for background to confirm. Pretty much they've been selling and shipping a product they KNOW to be defective.

Since Jan they have been claiming they will have new firmware 'In a couple of weeks'. Every week it's still 'a couple of weeks'. This has been going on for over three months already...and still it's 'a couple more weeks'.

This is not the behavior of a reputable company.

They have released a beta for the edgeswitch counterpart, that next to greatly improving DAC compatibilty and a fix for the ethernet issues, also includes stacking.

They expect to release that soon for the unifi line aswell

But i do have to agree to the releasing while full well knowing there are issues during beta.
Community has given back the same response to ubiquiti, but they choose to ignore it.
Let's hope next time they do it smarter

Does anyone know if this switch works with the xeon D embedded sfp+ ports? I'm seeing mixed information everywhere.

 

[PigLover]

Yes, works with Xeon-D SFP+ (not the base-T versions). Works with Optical SFP+ (limited set of optics). DACs pretty much don't work (a small number of 1-meter DACs seem to work inconsistently, as in works in one port but not others).

 

[Dan K.]

Thank you! It also seems it's not really compatible with any Intel base-T add in cards right now? At least the most popular x540s.
