Well... I have a few servers, that all have 2 port minimum (they actually all have 5 ethernets) (IPMI and Normal Ethernet) that's already 10 port, plus my Desktop, plus the link nto the router, plus storage management of a JBOD (2 ports) that's already 14 ports, and then I want to do stuff with POE Rasberry Pis (or similar) and I also have a few AP that I can now try and have fun with! I won't use the 48 ports, but 24 ports were more expensives where I live... so, I took this one!
