: I don't have what you want, but I have trouble understanding what you do want. You say "a switch", but to me that means a whole crossbar switch (like a whole central office). Then you say it could come from a salvaged switch, like you mean a single switch or maybe a switch frame of some kind. If so, you have to be more definitive, like a line switch, trunk switch, IR, OS, etc., or maybe you just want any kind of switch? I think you'll have a helluva time finding one that has never been in service!!
