I need an improved CRS112-8P-4S-IN rackmount switch. I see that the netPower 16P is close to what I would want, hardware wise, but in an incompatible design for my needs. The CRS328-24P-4S+RM is too big. Any news of a possible CRS328-16P-4S+RM on the horizon?
No.
+1!
Technically it would be a CRS320-16P-4S+RM …
I would also buy lots of these. I always run out with the 8 port but the 24 too big. I’d be OK with 2 or even 1 SFP
A crs318-16P-2S+ would be great. I would like it in an “IN” desktop form factor, although I am sure a RM version would be popular too.
They could make some ears to accommodate us both. I think it is a needed SKU.
No, not RB4011 again … They really should produce one device with two different cases (IN and RM), just like they did with RB2011 or certain models of CCR1009…
If they do make a IN version, they should have the case large enough for 40mm fans instead of the 30mm space for the crs326-24g-2s+IN. Raspberry pi fans are pretty much the only common offering in that size.
The ears on the RB4011 are bad, yes. However, the one that ships with the CRS112 is really nice. But yes, a pure rack-mount would be appropriate.
