I am seeing a bit of a trend away from Top Of Rack switches to middle of rack switches (although TOR is a much better acronym). I think it may be a better way to go than what I have currenty set up as I build new racks. Not only do I think the reduced cable density would be a huge improvement, I also have a problem with lack of choices in cable length for some of the cables I am using.

The downsides? It's a change from tradition and I'm not sure about managing the excess cable from connections going up the rack.

What do y'all think?

It's not what I know that counts.
It's what I can remember in time to use.
