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'm using MikroTik for my networking, and I love it so far. No switch yet, because I haven't completely talked myself into the full SFP switch yet, but It'll happen some day

I also have some mikrotik for more edge stuff! They are great! But I outgrew the 8 port one I had and don’t want to pay$600 for a bigger one :)
