I'd recommend the 4948E which has four 10G SFP+ ports for $12k list
with IP base license.

More than you need but the 4500X is 16 ports of 10GE with a list price
of $22k, IP base license is included.

Both of these switches have dual power supply options.  I think they
are a better choice than the 3xxx type access switches.

Your buy price should be a lot less than the list too.
