Top 48+ Port Switches with Full Management (Solutions)
You're checking for a switch with 48 ports, including 4 10GbE ports. Have you heard of any models that match those requirements? Since you already own Quanta and TRENDnet switches, you might want to explore adding 10 1GbE connections between them or consider purchasing a new switch instead—shipping costs could be quite high.
Yes, the brocade icx 6610 can handle this, though it might be a bit expensive. Even if not every client uses 10G, there will still be a faster system available, allowing you to use multiple systems simultaneously. The Aruba S2500 works well for me.
Notice that this path involves ICX switches with "Port On Demand" settings, meaning the ports are initially 1Gb unless you purchase a software upgrade to reach 10Gb. The required license is "ICX6610-10G-LIC-POD," and each unit upgrades four ports. When acquiring used units, the license could be present or absent depending on prior application.
