New Enterprise Router

I like big open roomy builds if you have the space for it. Easy to modify and parts are usually cheaper if space isn't a factor. It looks good. Working on it will be a breeze for sure.

It is fun to do. We do it a lot. Here are several experiments: http://imgur.com/SyXRqd4

Slick! What does the blade chassis do?
Testing, mostly.
Some NFV in they future.
Basically it's a way to get 10 NUCs to mount in 3U. There is a faceplate (not shown) that can mount a second Ethernet adapter.

I was trying to solve this same problem a couple weeks back to build myself a home virt farm (theoretically, hadn't bought or built anything). I ended up abandoning the idea because a single Gig-E NIC per box wasn't going to meet my needs. Is your second NIC connected via USB or PCI-E?

(mini)pci-e.

NUC idea is brilliant.. level of finishing for a test project also.
