This is used but in great condition. I'll run a diag on it now and make sure all the ports are working.

Now I know this is an expensive switch, but being that it's almost Christmas, I will start taking offers. Don't lowball me, but also dont expect me to ask anywhere near the retail cost for this :)

*EDIT*

I also have a Dell Powerconnect 2708 8 port switch that I'm willing to part with.

Best offer by 9PM Friday Dec 14th will take the item(s) home.

It is beyond my needs but interesting that switches are using HDMI as stacking connectivity.  Makes sense as it is a high bandwidth protocol with cheap production costs and easy access to cables.  Better than most proprietary designs.

Been a long time since I did hardware IT but I remember stacking switches using proprietary cables (no two brands used the same ones) which cost $50 to $200 just for a non-standard wire.  Worse suppliers often changed the stacking interconnects every couple years making expansion a nightmare. Things have gotten better.  Suprised Dell was willing to give up the "super duper high speed cable for $200" market though.

Anyways semi OT but it is a free bump.

Make sure it has no broken LED's.

Wouldn't want someone to freak out over an issue that doesn't affect functionality.

Will do. I'm going to test all the ports and wipe the config. Will report back if theres any issues, but you can assume that its 100% working.
