I have a customer that wants like 10 5621sw IP phones and a POE switch. Can anyone recommend a good POE switch?

Thanks

Depends on what they want to pay

A good easy and cheap switch to start is the "3Com Baseline Switch 2924-PWR Plus"


But how are you planning to connect the phones?
Stand alone, Pass through?
Do they use VLAN's
Need for VLAN Routing?
Who's doing the DHCP (iphelper address)
ect....

I think HP, Cisco and extreme are more expensive
If you want a cheap poe switch then look for Dlink

We use a Dlink DES-3828P, have had it for 2 years with no issues. Cost is around $1300.
 
Ive had VERY good experiences with Netgear Prosafe PoE....AND their 10/100/1000 speed (1000 when not being used for PoE)....and their affordably priced (24port $650-ish, 48port $1500).
