Edge switch with 12 SFP ports?

[jmcgrady1]

Can you recommend a Cisco switch that provides 12 SFP 1gb/s interfaces? I dont need the features or expense of a C9300X-12Y. Something with features as were available on a C2960 would be ideal.

The "cheapest" 12-port optics is 9300X-12Y.  

Alternatively, the most stable 12-port optics switch is already end-of-life, 3750X-12S.  

Do not forget the every purchase of a Catalyst 9300/9300L/9300X comes with Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty and free IOS-XE firmware download.

Unfortunately the 9300X-12Y is so very expensive and has a myriad of features i dont need.

Time to look at non-Cisco options

Sure you have many vendors who can offer that  spec (other than cisco)

I like 3750X-12S - they are very rugged and gave me life for more than 10 years, they doing still.

I am with @balaji.bandi. 

3750X-12S/24S is the best and affordable Cisco all-optic switch.  Try looking at the used market.
