The 12-port SFP+ one is listed again on Amazon.
I ended up going with a Mikrotik CRS309-1G-8S+IN for my main switch, and a HARACO ZX-SWTG-W218AS at the far end of my house to break off a few untagged SubLANs from the main trunk.
Does anyone have experience with this tiny cheap switch? There were a ton of port numbers and configurations available on AliExpress. The 2xSFP+ 4x2.5Base-T was $35.08 including tax and shipping from China to the US. I was having trouble getting my employer managed computer on its own SubLAN...
I have a Mikrotik L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN Router running Router OS connected to a CRS309-1G-8S+IN running SwOS. I have tried connecting them with both DAC and Cisco Finisar 850nm MMF transceivers (10Gbps capable). They will only negotiate a 1Gbps connection. I have also been unable to get 2.5Gbps...
Should I put my wireless printers on my IoT VLAN with my thermostats, security cameras, and appliances which only communicate through a remote server, put it on a trusted VLAN, or create its own VLAN?
I'm going to want trusted folks (mostly wifi phones and laptops) to print. The upstairs...
I'm going to be giving the $21.99 Sodola 2.5G transceiver on Amazon (plus a 10% Coupon) a try. I bought one last year and returned it because it would only negotiate SFP/1000Base-T speed. I just noticed deeper down in the description that there is a dip switch in the nose to enable 2.5G which...
My main switch (MikroTik CRS309-1G-8S+IN) is running very hot with 3 10GBASE-T SFP+ transceivers (even spaced in non-agacent ports). I did the popular fan mod but it was loud and only kept the closest port cool.
I have a 10GBASE-T NAS, a 2.5GBASE-T WiFi Router (Multiple VLANS--untagged so it...
In a manner of speaking. Deal with SK Hynix of South Korean to transfer Intel NAND business in 2020 but it has gone really slow due to cash problems on the Hynix side. I think Hynix finally made one of their last big payments and Intel is transfering the 3D NAND fab in Dalian China. I see...
That is a great product that appears to have averything on my wish list and will free up enough ports to save me one switch. Now I just have to be able to find one for sale.
If I go with the L009UiGS-2HaxD-IN for just $10 more I can save one Wireless AP.
I'm looking for the cheapest most compact (and preferably fanless) router (but a fan is not a deal breaker) which will never be a bottleneck for ~150-300Mbps internet (Starlink--I'm rural)--Basically I want more than adequate hardware but not overkill. I want to run the router on bare metal (no...
I just received the Horaco 8x2.5+1xSFP+ version today. I'm thing to use it to get more RJ45 ports on my Mikrotik 309. You can only use 4 RJ45 2.5 or 10Gbps Cu transponders in the 309 (every other cage) due to heat. I will evaluate it as a simple Level 2 switch. If I like it I'll get another...
I am loving my NAS. I can definately saturate the 10Gb on read with 9k Jumbo Frames. I still have not done a not of write testing but it seems quick.
I'm not seeing a technical thread on this unit so I'll post here:
1. I'm using RAID6. Does it only check parity on failure/rebuild and can...
Thanks. In my experience DACs run very cool. I think it close to 0mW vs 800mW for a MMF laser, and about 2700mW for 10GBase-T.
I've already ordered the case fan from this article: Tuto Fan mod sur le switch MikroTik CRS309-1G-8S+IN
Would the following arrangement of transceivers be acceptable from a thermal perspective? I understand 7&8 are adjacent but they are only 1Gbps.
Cu 10GBase-T (SODOLA SL-10GE-T)
DAC 10Gbps
Cu 10GBase-T (SODOLA SL-10GE-T)--running at 2.5Gbps
DAC 10Gbps
Cu10GB Base-T (SODOLA SL-10GE-T)
DAC...
I'm not able to get as many Ethernet runs back to one room in a star formation due to older construction. I am running trunk lines to three access points and in 2 of those rooms I'd like to use the access points as switches as well.
VLANS:
Office (10Gb in one room, all hard wired--DAC and...
It works just fine. I can set the spindown time and the drive sleeps all day until the time for the incremental backup at 3am. I was unable to exclude the USB port from the "storage utalization calculation" which defaults to midnight but I was able to set it for 2:58 am right before the backup...
No current construction. Just to be clear by future proofing I mean choosing the best currently available cable at the time a cable run is needed, not running any cable before it was needed. For example I'm very happy I ran CAT6A 6 years ago instead of 5E or 6. I got a screaming deal on...
