For watt measurements, you’ll see at left the power the ASUS XG-U2008 is using, in the middle is the Supermicro SuperServer SYS-5028D-TN4T with Xeon D-1541 (8 cores), and at right is the Supermicro SuperServer SYS-E200-8D with Xeon D-1528 (6 cores), see all comparisons and more detailed watt (and sound) measurements at:

Badly needs VLAN and LACP capabilities. Still good to have another product out there on the market.
Just not enough ports or management to be really useful in a homelab. Need at least 3-4 ports to have to compute nodes and storage. Not having management is also a killer.
How is performance?
4x 10gbe ports for the price would make sense…
What kind of cable you are using for the RJ45 ports?
But no test of the throughput, only that it connected at 10Gbit. Did I miss something?
