Looking for compact unit as this will be sitting on a wire shelf in the closet under the stairs (with minimal ventilation). This will be for a pfSense install, and will be used to feed a few drops in the house + 2 Ruckus AP's.

Prefer something reliable, sips power at idle, and has enough features to work well with pfSense and the AP's. Would love 12-16 ports... Bonus points for support for 2.5/5gb

TIA

7150 as stated.. not the cheapest by a longshot. But A. Fanless. B. the 10gig sfp ports are free licensed. C. Software is still maintained. D. Huge support in these forums.
I run one of these and power a couple of unfi Pro HD AP off it.. Works like a champ.
around 299 on ebay these days I believe.
other option.. not fanless but reliable would be a 6230-24 ( or 24P for poe) all 1 gig
both on ebay
