PoE Switch Recommendations 10

[franke]

Hi all,
I'm told Avaya will be discontinuing it's Cajun PoE switches around June. Any recommendations as to a suitable replacement that works well with the IPO? My customer is looking for 96 ports.

Thanks aS always for your insight.

We use also procurve switches. Never had problems with it. We have a couple of multi sites with 10 26 port PoE switches procurve 2626 pwr. and it works great.

Put them under a heavy load or a broadcast storm. QOS won't do a thing for you.

I am using 3com's 4500G-PWR switches and love them.
They are much less expensive than Cisco and they have much the same feature set. Configuration is also very easy.
