    EXPIRED Mellanox SX6036 36ports QSFP €150

    For anyone wondering the same as I was about the noise level compared to the 4036e, I went ahead and bought one. I hooked it up and powered it on. I then had to make sure that it had lit up since I couldn't hear it next to the 4036e. Now to see if I can figure out cabling. One of the same dacs...

    Dell R710 and Readyrails

    Thanks so much for the info! The directions on the inside of the box were totally different than the ones on the sticker on the rails, so I was totally confused.
