Re: Any sign of supply chain returning to normal?

Basically, anything that uses Broadcom or other commodity silicon is
currently 55+ weeks out according to most of the vendors I work with.
Custom Silicon is a bit better or so I'm told, but I've not had to order
much gear with custom silicon lately, so I've not got a clear read on lead
times there.

I wouldn't be surprised to see some recent gear go End of Sales early just
because of component shortages and fabs moving to produce the more
in-demand parts over older less profitable parts.

Has anyone seen any progress whatsoever on supply chain issues with
networking hardware?



I’ve noticed that primary market lead times have been increasing and at
the same time secondary market pricing has also been going higher at the
same time, still.



What have you seen?
