16x2.5gbe with a couple of 10gbe uplinks (a couple so you can either daisy chain, or connect 1 to another switch and another to a sever with 10gbe) would be amazing - that’d handle wifi on a single port and allow multiple devices to all use their full 2.5gbe
i’ve seen a couple with 5x2.5gbe and 2xSFP+, which i guesssssss is okay
I have a few 4x2.5gbe and 2x10gbe, and I think one is 8x2.5 + 1x10gbe.
Theyll get better, networking is actually easy to sku once you get going, they've just enjoyed the premiums till now.
And again, wifi was considered the main connector, which is why we got 2.5gbe in the first place, it fit 802.11ac and most of ax.
