[asterisk-biz] OT--Cisco Hardware

[Lane Sullivan]

Just a note, I have 2 of these POE and will be receiving my third
(PowerConnect 3548P, 48 Ports Managed Switch) Monday. They work great for
me!

 

Thanks,

 

Lane

Gondar,

Glad I could help.

I have not used their PoE yet but you can look at this page and quickly see
what fits your current/future needs.

I have become a big fan of Dell PowerConnect switches.  At one point in
time, I would have laughed at anyone suggesting a Dell switch, but now I
actually suggest and deploy them, unless I am working in an all Cisco shop
and they insist.

These are the two I use the most
http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pwcnt_2724?c=us

=04&l=en&s=bsd> &cs=04&l=en&s=bsd
http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pwcnt_2748?c=us
<http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pwcnt_2748?c=us&cs
=04&l=en&s=bsd> &cs=04&l=en&s=bsd

They can run in managed mode or simple (dumb) mode but you get all gigabit
and two fiber gigabit ports as well.  The specs kick butt for the price.  No
used Ebay stuff, new, full warranty, and I have had zero issues with any
that I have deployed.

If you want to go higher end,
http://www.dell.com/content/products/category.aspx/data_center_gig?c=us

<http://www.dell.com/content/products/category.aspx/poe?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bs
d> &cs=04&l=en&s=bsd

The pricing is still great for a new high end switch that is just as feature
rich, if not more, and easier to configure for non Cisco IOS people.
