Yeah, I noticed that, although they have a "high-voltage DC" option, which I found more curious than anything.

    Fiberstore is rolling out some CRAZY cheap 100Gbps switches, and I'm
    curious if anyone in the community has any thoughts or real-life
    world experience with them.

    E.g.: https://www.fs.com/products/69340.html
    <https://www.fs.com/products/69340.html>

    For the price point, it's almost in the "too good to be true" category.

    Naturally it claims to support an impressive range of features
    including BGP, IS-IS, OSPF, MPLS, VRFs, blah blah blah.

    There was an earlier discussion about packet buffer issues, but,
    assuming for a second that it's not an issue, can anyone say they've
    used these and/or the L2/L3 features that they purportedly support?

    Thanks!
