I recently upgraded my homelab core switch to a Mellanox SX 6012. It’s 12 ports of 40gb/s, and each can break out to 10gb/s. This switch also idles at 30 watts which was top of my list.

What model switches are you running, and do you like it?

I use Mikrotik networking gear. I love the capabilities, just wish RouterOS was a bit easier to administer.

Agreed, I come from Cisco stuff at work and the Mikrotik learning curve is real real.
