Second that. Using stacked HP 2650 switches to support ~120 users and with
QoS on, don't even have to worry about VLAN'ing the network. In HP/Compaq We
Trust...

Re: [Asterisk-Users] LAN Switch w/ QoS

Try picking up a 3com 3c17205 (4400 PWR) 24 port switch...it'll cost you a couple of 
bucks more but has POE built in and if you use the NJ200 (there's a guy selling boxes 
of 20 NJ200's on Ebay for $750 but he's got a lot so you can get him down to about 
$575) or NJ220 wall jacks (DONT GET THE NJ95,NJ100 or NJ105) it gives you tremendous 
flexibility, the NJ's are a proper managed 4 port switch in themselves and have built 
in QoS priority and the 4400 forwards POE to them and they forward it to the device).

I managed to pick up some new 3c17205's for about $400 on Ebay (although they're 
scarce at the moment) and just finished wiring up my flat with the whole 
shebangmeans I've got phone points and network points everywhere in a single 
device and don't have to worry about power points.

Have fun.

I'd stay away from the Dell switches. Some models have serious issues
that Dell says will never be fixed. (eg, they auto reboot if hit with
some common html hijacking code, bad snmp request, etc, etc.)

I have been quite happy with our HP 2848 GigE switches that we put in
for our desktops a few months ago.  I have also used the 2650 48 10/100
+ 2 GigE switches before.

We are looking at the 2650-PWR for our VoIP deployment (only about 60
phones for our USGS/U of A mixed department).

You can get Cisco 2950s for about $600/24 ports.
And 48 ports from Dell for about the same price.  I haven't used any of 
their latest round of switches, but their older ones were decent for 
the price.  Cisco's switches are almost certainly better-made, but 
Dell's not *usually* that bad.

You can get Cisco 2950s for about $600/24 ports.
