8-12 Port Redundant PSU Managed Switch

[Corneliu Paunescu]

Im looking to purchase a cisco managed switch (CLI with SSH Support).

It has to have dual power supplies, and no more than 8-12 ports.

Anyone got an idea for what model? I don't want to spend more than $1k or so.

Thanks....

Hello, Chris. Let me assist you for a specific model as an initial recommendation. Do you need 8-12 ports Gigabit or just Fast Ethernet (PoE)? Feel free to e-mail (adawa@cisco.com) for additional concerns or requirements. Kind regards.

Gigabit please.

PoE is really not necessary. This will be used as a redundant internet connection between my firewalls, so 8 ports would really be great (I really just need 4), but it MUST have Dual PSUs and Managed CLI with SSH Switch, along with Vlan Support and static routing (prefer OSPF is possible, but NOT necessary).

We running all our equipment via Cisco Routers and Switches, but I dont want to waste one of my Cisco 3750x switches for this purpose.

Thanks...

The "smallest" 8-port SFP ports switch is the 3750X-12S and 3850-12S.  Both have dual power supply and both are priced the same.
