10Gb/s Firewall Choice for Colocation

Also make sure you get the right module for the fiber if you are only getting the module for one side of it. There are singlemode, multimode and a couple of variations. Fiber won't autonegotiate or do anything like copper. If it ain't right, it ain't gonna work.

Looks like the ER‑8‑XG could also be a good fit if you prefer the EdgeRouter series over the Unifi stuff. Also slightly less expensive, and better performance.
I thought that this was discontinued? We searched for it last night and could not find it.

I always recommend the EdgeMax line over the UniFi. Go with this recommendation.
Me too, we started there but Ubiquiti's EdgeRouter main page didn't list anything with 10GigE options. The Infinity wasn't on there anymore.

Oh the infinity? yup it is no longer being sold. let me search for the post.

I have a feeling that they will only look at the Unifi because they care a LOT about it being Amazon and Prime, and Amazon doesn't carry the EdgeRouter, only from third parties.

Yeah, that's what I thought. They discontinued the EdgeRouter Infinity, but the Unifi equivalent is still available. Oddly.

I thought I read that, but not seeing where. It is still on the main page.

Well, I'll see if we can get that. Would be nice.

USG-XG-8 is the one that is getting it production halted at least from this: https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Updates-Blog/USG-XG-8-Product-Status-Update/ba-p/2734268

Oh, THAT makes so much more sense! But Amazon's stock indicates the opposite. Very weird.
