You get a lot more network throughput with switches because there wont be
any collisions with a switch. We use Cisco 2948 switches but we have a
fiber backbone switched through a Cisco 4000 fiber switch. If you dont
have any fiber then you can get all 10/100 a lot cheaper.

Please
respond to
"NT System
Admin Issues"
I need to replace one of my hubs (the smoke leaked out of the box) and
would appreciate some recommendations. I'd like to get three 24 port
auto-sensing 10/100 units. This will give me 8-10 spare ports for
expansion in our 65-node network.
What is the difference between a hub and a managed hub? Should I consider
installing switches rather than plain hubs?
Brand recommendations? We've been using Intel units but I have no loyalty
to any particular product line at this time.
