Where to Buy Ubiquiti Edgerouter X SFP (ER-X-SFP) ? No Stock Anywhere

LDeepwaterNewt on 04/09/2022 - 16:10

As the subject says. Anybody?
All the usual haunts (scorptec, landmark, ebay, amazon, ple, etc) don't have stock, and those that do reply on stock ETA checks say 6 weeks :-\

TIA

    Have you tried this shop? https://shop.tang.com.au/ubiquiti-edgerouter-x-sfp/

      Nope, never heard of 'em. Anybody have some input about these guys?

      Also, they don't seem to report any kind of stock on the site. I added 10x "Mac Studio" to my cart and they will happily let me pay for that. I suspect they'll follow-up via email with a "Oh hey, no stock, you need to wait."
      I'll email them and see though, thanks.

        Yup, as I suspected. "Sorry, no stock, no eta." from these guys.

    A lot of Ubiquiti gear is currently out of stock Australia-wide. Unifi bullet G4(not Pro), Unifi switch POE-150 to name a few. I have access to few tier 1 distis and even they don't have stock meaning the usual retailers won't have stock either. I'd assume yours is in the same boat. You'd either have to wait, substitute or buy used if you are in a hurry. Also beware some small online retailers would show as in stock but they will give you a really long ETA once the order is placed. If you can find stock always give them a call and confirm before placing the order.

      Yeah, I was looking for alternatives. I'd prefer to go Ubiquiti obviously, due to unifi software etc. but ultimately the two big pulls for the er-x-sfp are a) the SFP port that I can stick a VDSL2 SFP module into, and b) 5x POE ports. I only require one POE right now, but i have some Raspberry Pi devices that i'd like to POE in the near future…

    EdgeRouter gear cannot be managed by the Unifi Controller, unless that has changed recently.

    • DeepwaterNewt on 04/09/2022 - 23:07

      Hmm, yeah, I wasn't sure if it could, I'd have just wanted to keep the same hardware manufacturer, and, that VDSL2 SFP module is very attractive. I'd really like to get rid of my previous ISP's huge square router+modem that's running in bridge mode. alternatively if i can find a modem+poe router/switch, without wifi, i'd be happy to look at that. Or, at the very least, one where i can switch off wifi.

    I have been looking for an edgerouter for a while. Stock ETA keeps getting pushed back. I am not sure if it is ever coming back.

    Similar issue with some mikrotiks as well.
