RouterBOARD hardware • The dream switch for the RB5009

Imagine the following switch:

• 16x at least Gigabit ports including at least 8x PoE 802.3af/at
• 2x 10G SFP+ ports
• SwOS, 802.1Q, management VLAN
• The size of two RB5009s one on top of the other, designed to fit in the K-79 bracket in place of two RB5009s

I currently use a TP-Link TL-SG2016P, but would like something that can do the same things (except the switch's L3 features which I don't use) while being able to be mounted in the K-79 bracket alongside the RB5009 and connected to the RB5009 via 10G SFP+ and still having a free SFP+ for later chaining to another switch.

Do you think Mikrotik will make something like this in the future? Do you think it should be different somehow? How much do you think it could cost? Could the price be similar to the TL-SG2016P?
