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 got a Unifi US 16 XG as core switch for like 400 bucks back when it was new and thought it was expensive.
Looking at what Unifi is doing nowadays a 16 port 10 Gbit switch seems like a steal.
Besides that I also have a US 16 150W for my PoE devices and a USW 24 G1 for everything else.
