I have a need for cheap managed DC power switches for our OSS and Monitoring (backoffice). I was wondering what everyone else have found in this space. I am currently using Cisco 2950's, but those are still 2.5K list and seems like too much to spend on something so trivial. I am looking for something with: * Better port density (48 ports per 1U), but 24 ports would work. * IOS like configuration (not needed, but would be nice not to crosstrain my team) I really don't want anything that is Web only. * CHEAP. The gear is mostly just for monitoring and big backplanes and features are not really needed. Thanks, Brandon
