Switches

I have a lot of managed switches in my homelab. The Mikrotik CSS610-8G-2S+in has two 10 gigabit SFP+ ports, connected to TrueNAS NAS and blahaj0. It is a nice managed switch, and it itself is powered off passive POE. The switch above is my old POE switch, which was replaced with one with more ports.
It was replaced with a Netgear GS516TP Switch, which can also be managed. It has 8 POE ports, which power four Raspberry Pis, the mikrotik switch, and access points.
Perhaps my most interesting switch is the TP-Link TL-RP108GE. It is a (managed) switch that is itself powered off POE, and also has a passive POE output, in addition to a standard DC output jack. You can do all sorts of interesting things with this.
