AMPCOM 8-port 2.5GbE managed switch with 10GbE SPF+ cage sells for less than $60
AMPCOM has launched an inexpensive, fanless 8-port 2.5GbE managed switch with one 10GbE SFP+ cage that sells for less than $60 on Aliexpress with free shipping and before taxes (if you live in Europe). Upgrading your local networking to 10GbE (10 Gbps Ethernet) can still be relatively expensive, and when I look at 10GbE switches on Amazon, most are sold for $200 to $400, and the cheapest models cost around $120. But if you donβt need multiple 10GbE ports on your switch, Iβve been informed about an inexpensive 8-port 2.5GbE managed switch with a single 10GbE SFP+ cage. And as weβve just seen itβs possible to purchase a dual 10GbE mini PC/router for $299 (barebone), so itβs becoming more affordable than ever to switch to 10GbE networking even though not everybody may benefit from the higher speeds.
