A quick glance at Canada Computers reveals a D-Link 24 port managed switch for $220. https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=27_1045_349&item_id=061204 Might this be what you want? BTW, avoid TP-Link switches. Some models don't handle VLANs properly. I just noticed CC has really dumbed down their selection process. Previously you could specify how many ports you were looking for, managed/unmanaged etc.. Now you have to sort through a huge pile of other stuff, to find what you want.
