I have a requirement for a 1G/10G access switch also for a meet-me
room project I am working on, and the 4500-X ticks all the boxes -
except for the MPLS capability. The lack of this feature means I will
likely have to backhaul data back to an MPLS capable switch or an
ASR1k in another location.
I don't need a unit which can handle 24x10G (240G) of sustained
throughput but I do need to plan for a handful of 10G handoffs which
may do 2 or 3 Gbps in the near future. Two 10G uplink ports isn't
enough, and the 7600 platform looks to be ridiculously expensive for
this sort of thing (not to mention space and power requirements).
A cross between a 4500-X and ME3600X/ME3800X would be an absolutely
killer box. Then again, I guess that would involve Enterprise and
Service Provider BU's within Cisco talking (Gert?) ;)

for those of you looking at the sup720-10G or 7k ( I have sets of
both of
them as well ), take a look at Ciscos new 4500X 1U 10G/1G
switch/router.
With an SFP+ ZR optic this can do just about anything an X2 or XenPak
6704/6708/6716 could do.
Except mpls :(
