The smell of new switches

Is an awesome scent.

It is indeed! Just received $AU90,000 worth of H3C. 24G SFP+ switches were $AU8,500 a pop. got 5 of them for a Center Stack plus 17 edge switches, some with CX4 stacking cables that are $Au250 ea.


Congratulations on your purchase and new Ownership. Do you have a rack to pop them into?? Pics of them set up

Im working on that. The guy that sold me these switches sold them to me for 100 bucks.

He has an extremely nice enclosed rack that has a built in surge protector and cooling system. Has 3 servers housed into it and he paid 20k for it. Tip top of the line.


Im trying to make an offer on it without the servers.

Looks like this but is taller and extremely heavy duty

Looks like a 24RU MFB - we have 2 of those exact ones at my mates place for a LAN we run down at the local hall.

We have three of those in 45RU's in our new center of Network. plus 2 dell racks and a some other spare one that has specific gear in it that got moved from another location (Would be nice to have all MFBs.

Pity you're not near me, Would happily sell you my 42RU that I have been trying to sell for a while. - replaced it with a 4RU as it is at my Mum's house.

Bummer.
They are really nice and clean.
My Basement is always cold so the switches and routers will be well taken care of.
