you must be kidding. Go try to find a 1U 24 port 10 gig switch from other manufacturers. Thats if you can even find one. $4K is a great deal. |

| I doubt it is for any one application or computer. More likely it is for a backbone connection. I'd guess it could be a large corporation with multiple floors. Each floor has an IDF with a gigabit switch serving it and the MDF has the core switch connecting all the gigabit IDFs together. To keep the core MDF from being the bottleneck you would need more bandwidth in the MDF than the IDFs have. |
