current env: asa-5506 --> sg550xg-24 --> sg300-52mp.
want to replace sg300 with another cisco switch with 10G uplinks.
price difference is about $250-$300 between new SG350X-48MP (about US$1000-$1100) and used SG500X-48MP (SmartNet eligible, $700-$800). Used SG500X will be cheaper.
There is also an option to pick 'WS' (excess stock) SG550X-24P for $900 (we can make it work with 24 ports and keep old SG300-52MP for few low bandwidth clients.
However, prefer 1-to-1 swap for simplicity and less maintenance overhead.
Please do not start offering to explore other brands and stick to Cisco SG350X and SG500X series.
