I've been using Edgepoint S16 with great success for several years, but
they only have 2 10G SFP Ports on them. More of our backhaul radios
have 10G optics, and the EPMP radios have 1G fiber, so I'm looking for
an outdoor Multiport SFP+ swtich. Are there any options out there
similar to the Edgepoint with more SFP+ ports?
The Mikrotik Fiberbox only has 5 1G ports and I've had a lot of issues
with them with packetloss and High CPU, and the Mikrotik Netpower 16P
only has 2 SFP+ Ports just like the edgepoint.
At most sites I can run new fiber cables all the way down to the ground
and plug them into a CRS317-1G-16S+ in my cabinet. But a couple sites
we want to upgrade this year, new cables are challenging to install. We
already have Fiber/DC at the top running the edgepoint. Just need a way
to get more fiber ports at the top to connect to the radios. I'm
thinking about putting a CRS309-1G-8S+IN in and outdoor enclosure, it
looks like it can power via POE from the edgepoint.
