GS724T - Is there a rear port alternative
The GS724Tv4 is a front port switch.
Is there an alternative similar switch with rear ports?

The ears will always be mounted on the opposite side from the power input. There would be no logical reason to allow the ears to mount on both sides.
In many racks though, all wiriing connections happen in the rear with the front just being lights, LEDs, power cut off, etc. A very nice clean rack look. Wire it once (and adjust as necessary from rear access), and then monitor from the clean front.
