The new CRS is DoA for me:
-1/5 the RAM of the CRS326-24G
- wow 32 MB Flash. This cut cost corner doesn’t make sense and they have to come later to do crazy and stupid things to split packages like the mess on the wifi ones just because there is no enough storage nor memory.
- 40 Gbps is being replaced by the 25 Gbps / 100 Gbps ( Even the CCR21xx series comes with no 40 Gbps ports ) and the Industry is moving away from 40 Gbps.
- No PoE+ or PoE++ ports but twice the cost of a CRS328-24P
- 3X times more expensive than the CRS 326-24G just to add 2.5 Gbps + 2 extra SFP+ ports and 2 x 40 Gbps uplinks doesn’t make much sense to me
-Single core on the CPU not even dual?
There are some nice features but looks a downgrade in other key components like RAM, Storage and CPU
