Mx204 alternative

Yes, good point, I was under the impression that it would take the 12 port
10/1 mda-e card but on looking closer it appears it only supports the high
capacity mda-e-xp (6x100/40/10 ports or 12x100/40/10 ports) cards. This
means, as you say if you want physical 10G or lower ports then a
7210-sas-sx64 would be needed which is less than ideal.

Hi, 
SR1 (without s) is 2u high, bit it doesn't have 1G ports. It doesn't even
have "native" 10G ports. Only 40/100G, with 4x10G optics for 10G. For 1G you
would need a 7210 in sattelite mode, which is one extra U + $$$.
Otherwise very nice box...
