[SANOG] 10Gig switches in India

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

“Premium” pricing for what is basically a commodity product, I fear.  And add import duties to the mix.

But a lot of it can be picked up on ebay for a fraction of the cost, and they’re built like tanks so that might be a viable option.

Oh, and for say CPE in small offices you could try the netgear 10G switches?   Wouldn’t quite hold up in a datacenter but for other applications that should be just fine.
