It's right across the aisle from a bunch of new 32x400G gear that just went in. The longevity of Ethernet is a blessing and a curse to behold.

Haha you are the third or fourth person to mention that, if it makes you feel any better.

I have to say I sighed pretty loudly when yesterday I walked by a 3550-12G that is *STILL* in production on the $DAY_JOB network.

I thought so too, but there might be a slight difference! https://pinoutguide.com/NetworkCables/cisco_gigastack_pinout.shtml

Minor niggle: they were probably just using the 1394a/FireWire cables and ports but not the FireWire 400 protocol itself. :) (400 megabit FireWire interconnect for gigabit switches?) Still a really odd choice.

thanks! a Sony ZV-E10. did a bunch of practice before this video but I still have some focus issues to iron out. definitely getting better the more I use it though
