When I originally took a look at the ECS2512FP two years ago one of the downsides that I noted was at the time 2.5Gbps and 10Gbps weren't available in a lot of end devices at the time. But in the last two years, the Intel I225-V NICs have been being u...

Eight 2.5GbE Ports + four 10Gbps SFP+ slots, EnGenius Cloud platform, Comprehensive local management interface, 240W PoE budget, The heat management is excellent

The move from Gigabit to faster interfaces has already happened in a lot of big datacenters, but when it comes to smaller businesses and especially homes it isn't as prolific. That isn't to say that you can't benefit from the upgrade. Like I mentioned...

Abstract: The EnGenius ECS2512FP is a fairly compact network switch, measuring a modest 330mm across. Don't judge it on size alone, though, because it packs serious performance into its diminutive chassis. Eight front-facing Ethernet ports all support both regular...
