WTB: Brocade ICX6450-48P

[jht3]

Looking for a working, and ideally licensed, Brocade ICX6450-48P (no longer think a -24P is going to be enough room for growth). Seems like the going rate is $120 shipped (DC/VA suburbs), so looking for something at that price point from a member here before i try my luck on the bay.

Back story: The Netgear GS724T that is my primary switch is misbehaving I believe and due for replacement, and just recently became aware of these Brocade models. Layer 3 routing and would eliminate the multiple PoE injectors!

@T_Minus you have a few of these afiak

 

[NickM]

if T_Minus still has extra after fulfilling jht3's needs, I'm looking for one too! The 24P is my preference

 

[T_Minus]

Thanks for thinking of me, I don't have any POE Models.

I do have a Brocade ICX 6450-24p in mint shape that is available.

To be blunt, I have not kept up with their current (USA) Selling Price.

Any sense what is a fair price for unit in mint shape? if anyone is serious, i'd be able to take some photos over the weekend.

@tommybackeast from ebay and other sales here, it appears about $100. maybe up to $120 for a mint one.

but in surveying my usage, i think i'm really looking for a -48P. my current 24 port switch has 5 unused ports and i still have most of a spool of Cat6 to continue my wiring project. go big or go home? 24 seemed massive only a few years ago.

Can you ship to canada? I'll be willing to pay $100 + shipping. let me know.

Hi, $100 + shipping for Mint shape (and with Rack Ears) with all working ports is a bit low.

How about $135 USD + shipping

The 6450-24p uses much less power than the 6450-48p and it seems often sells for a bit more given they are less common.

Bluntly, its been years since I sold something into Canada (I am in NorthEastern USA).

Should we come to terms on price (and i've shared photos and screengrab of boot menu), if you generate a UPS pre-paid label and send me the PDF (or even US Post Office shipping label); that would work. I just dont really want to deal with the Canadian paperwork re duty, etc.

Here's some pix of the switch I had on hand, should you agree and prior to payment, I would of course take pix with today's date and my/your username on the paper, along with screengrabs of whatever CLI commands you want.

lost out on a few ebay sales

still looking for a switch. thanks!

I have a 6450-24p in mint shape, with Rack Ears (not sure if you decided on 24 or 48 port); if interested, PM me

USPS, FedEx, ups, there is nothing to the paperwork. It’s all online, print, tape label to box, drop it off.

 

[jht3]

@tommybackeast i really want to say yes but still holding out for a 48p as i only have a few ports left open on my current 24 port switch, and am still pulling cable to some locations in the house. but thanks for checking back.

 

[jht3]

bump. still looking for a 48 port POE switch

I think you may be regrettably looking to eBay at this point.

 

[Almighty]

If you are still looking for some I just bought one from ebay and they accepted $119 + free shipping, they have 5 left according to the listing.

Thanks! I actually got an Aruba s2500-48p for $103 shipped that is hopefully comparable to that one. If it doesn't work out definitely going for yours.

I have 3 of the Brocades and Two of the Arubas.
I much preferred the Brocade as it was configured in a more traditional style and more capable (also looks better lol)

Since my 6450-48P seems to have a bad POE module as only some of my ports work I went ahead and got a couple from that Ebay post above. I have been meaning to sell the Aruba switches at some point, just didn't figure I would get enough for them to be worth the time/trouble.

and what is the license situation? i've been monitoring ebay for quite some time, and even lost out on numerous auctions, but i have been holding out hope a member here would excess one.
