The HP 3500 is a fixed format 24/48 port 10/100/1000 with 4
dual-personality SFP ports. You can slap a 10Gig expansion module in
the back. Around $3k/$6k for the 24/48 port

We only run basic L2 stuff, although the unit supports L3.

Foundry FLS624/648 is half that cost (well, 2500/3500), and the 10G modules are just SFPs....and if you're not doing L3, why buy L3? :) 2x10G for the 24, 4x10G for the 48....
