Brocade 6610-48p can be had for about $60 + shipping on eBay
They are EOL and server the home has provided all the firmware and licensing for them for free.
Way too loud if you don't butcher it and do a fan mod. Those are datacenter switches. Got mine yesterday as a core for smaller lan parties. Great hardware, very solid and I love it. Especially for the price of around 200 bucks with two psus and one additional fan. But it never will run in my house for regular operation. The 6450s on the other hand ...
Mine is pretty darn quiet 🤷♂️
Actually it's quieter than my hp procurve and my Plex server.
You'll want to make sure the 6610 is flashed, configured and running both power supplies. Out of the box it runs at max speed without configuration and if it's missing a PSU it will max the PSU fan to keep the internals cool.
Strange. Running it exactly like that. Any ressource for tweaking with the fan config?
Run "dm fan"
