    Dell N2224X-ON Power-Switch 24x 2.5GbE 4x SFP28 25GbE 2x QSFP+ ($257.99)

    The N2224PX-ON is the poe version. They seem hilariously expensive on ebay at the moment unfortunately. Not a lot of good options for 4-10 2.5 PoE with 10g and VLANs.

    Celestica Seastone DX010 32Port 100G QSFP28 $250

    Hyper converged infrastructure. And I have no interest in managing 256 static routes, especially since they can change dynamically. BGP + rest apis, I haven't logged into that switch in years. You just aren't the target market for those features it seems.

    Celestica Seastone DX010 32Port 100G QSFP28 $250

    I think your missing a big use case for these kinds of switches: HCI I have a similar model with 6 machines hooked up to it, but each machine has 1-4 k8s clusters on it and each one talks BGP to the switch. I have 10.0.0.0/16 divided into /24s routed through it. In my case I'm not doing any acl...

    Using static IPs in my VMs are impossible....

    I don't know if this has changed in 25, but in 24 at least you need to edit the nic settings on the VM and turn on "Trust Guest Filters" iirc

    XikeStor long distance (80m+) 10GBase-T SFP+ to RJ45 Transceiver Compatibility?

    That list is all pre-terminated stuff, so as long as you don't get anything dirty while you're installing things it's pretty plug'n'play.

    XikeStor long distance (80m+) 10GBase-T SFP+ to RJ45 Transceiver Compatibility?

    I just did this exact thing. There are a bunch of ways to do this even if you're just talking about fiber. This is what I did. 100m lc/lc OS2 armored cable termination boxes lc connectors OS2 patch cables 10g sfp+ Single mode transceivers from ebay Buried 200ft of bulk 3/4" irrigation tube...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    The output of `show run` is the whole config. If you save your working config with that, you can always just paste it back into a reset switch and be back to where you want.

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    If you do a `show run` you should see what config is loaded. Wild ass guess, it rebooted for some reason (power blip?) and you had for got to save things after you first configured things.

    Fiber Optic Recommendation? (Direct Burial, Short Distance, Unifi Dream Machine Pro)

    I only use single mode transceivers for all my other optical stuff (have a 3/4 populated 42u rack). Keeps SKU counts lower :)

    sff usb powered?

    What are you doing on it? If you're really worried about power, and not doing that much on it other than a little storage; could you jump down to something based on a CM4?

    Will it work? Epyc 7F72 + 25 NVMe's

    For how much this system is going to cost (which isn't totally crazy in the grand scheme of things); I would just max the ram up front and get all 8 channels going. 64gb sticks aren't _that_ bad these days MEM-DR464MC-ER32 64GB DDR4 3200MHz ECC 2Rx4 RDIMM Memory for SuperMicro servers | eBay

    [COMPLETED][W][US-CA] 4x Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny

    I've got a m920q with i5-8500, 64gb ram, 1tb WD blue ssd, and the 16x riser. I actually don't really want to sell it, but I haven't turned it on in 6 months, so I think I just have too many projects :) I'd do 400 or so shipped. Send me a PM.

    SBC with 10Gbe + M.2 with at least 2-lanes of Gen 3?

    I just did something kind of close to this, and ended up with the same conclusion as SnJ9MX. I went with 4x ThinkStation P340 SFF.

    Is Connector A of a PICMG 1.3 a regular X16 PCIE slot mechanically?

    This might be a solution to your problem (though not your exact question). In a sff project of mine in using these Delock Products 62863 Delock Adapter U.2 SFF-8639 > PCIe x4 with fixing plate to put full size cards in 1L PCs (via m. 2 adapters). I don't see a reason why you couldn't use them...

    Looking for a HDMI KVM switch for dual monitors, attached to 2 to 3 PC. Has to have real EDID

    Does it need to be HDMI? I have a iogear gcs1944 that I've been very happy with, but that's display port. Past that I think you get into funky matrix switch stuff.

    Best practice or toolkit for estimating cable run lengths?

    Most decent cable will also have distance markers on it as well. Just sharpie mark the box with the last one you saw every time you cut some off. That way you have an idea of what's left. It's typically some arbitrary number based on the spool size at the manufacturing plant. So a 1k box might...

    Best practice or toolkit for estimating cable run lengths?

    (ex LV contractor) LodeRunner basically said what I would do to get a baseline estimate for initial quoting. Once framing is closer to finished I would do a site survey with either the general, or the electrical contractor to understand routes (especially where you have to cross firebreaks) to...
