Does a whitebox switch vendor exist that...

  • has an "access" switch (e.g. 48 x 1G-T, 2-4 x 10G-SFP+) that is under 1000USD
  • has an "aggregation" switch (e.g. 48 x 10G-SFP+ 2-6 x 40G-QSFP+) that is under 5000USD
  • have support for ONIE / cumulus
  • have lower cost / lower density switches for laboratory testing (sub 500USD)
  • have some semblance of a reputation (e.g. fs.com satisfies the first two objectives, but they are new to the scene)

Also this is a general request for vendor suggestions related to deploying with ONIE/ONL/Cumulust/etc. If you've had a good time and feel like your choice of vendor / software have not bitten you too hard It'd be interesting to hear about it.
