I'm searching for a switch with at least one 10Gbase-T ethernet port
and some gigabit ethernet for lab test.
From cisco web site i've seen for example a 3560 model with X2 module
and CX4 port but nothing with 10Gb-T.
Unfortunately my budget couldn't arrive to nexus or cat6500....
Do you have some other vendor model i can check?

You might look at Juniper EX3200 with a EX-UM-2XFP and then optics of your
choice (EX-XFP-10GE-SR)

I have to agree the Arista is a great box at a great price
(comparatively). I was really impressed with the performance in our
testing for top of rack switches.
The Juniper EX3200 with 10GigE uplink card works really well too but you
are limited to 2x10GE ports per switch. We have a couple of them
deployed in that configuration in our closets.

I noticed that no one has actually quite answered this original question
(on a budget, multiple GigE's, at least one 10GBase-T). There
seem to be at least a couple possible options at this point --
The Dell PowerConnect 6224 lists a dual port 10GBase-T module option
for $1349. Also, they seem to be releasing sFlow support shortly --
The SMC 8824M has a single port 10GBase-T module
option (SMC10BTMOD) for around $800 with up to 2
modules per switch. They apparently have a promo where
you can get a 10GBase-T PCI-E card for free if you order
one of these modules (SMC10BTMOD-BUND).
