I find it mind-boggling that you can hardly buy _RAM_ anymore without programmable RGB LEDs, but that managed switches do not come with a per-port RGB LED to let me mark VLANs or cables that need replacements or whatever. Come on! A nice little square all around the port, please. Instead, we get the QR code plus an app that needs to talk with the cloud.
- wmf 1y agoSome of their switches have Etherlighting™.
- Sesse__ 1y agoYes, if you have special Ubnt-brand cables. And still, I want this to be standard everywhere, not a niche thing from one manufacturer :-) (I know Facebook has some on their 100G switches, too.)
- simoncion 1y agoI'm pretty sure that the only thing special about the cables is the boot that transmits the light from the port's LED array fairly well.
