It seems like it's doable to get some TP-Link or Netgear switches that do 5-10 port 2.5 or 5gbit for a couple hundred each; or spend $2K on full 16/18-port 1/2.5/5/10 units. The environment I support, I can't really see supporting more than 5gbit for most units in the next 2-3 years timeframe; obviously pure-10gbit switches won't work for this setup. Thunderbolt to 10gbit might be an option, but those adapters are $200 a pop! I need 16-24 ports per rack.
Thoughts? Thanks.
