Small Business Replacement for c4500

[gluo]

Hi,

I am rather new to Extreme switching products and I am seeking some advice on what would be a good replacement choice for and old Cisco 4500 switch. The needs are:

• 100 to 150 users
• 80 Gigabit PoE ports for APs and VoIP phones
• 48 Gigabit Ports for connecting Servers

Would series 220 be a viable choice? How about X440?

Thank you in advance.

I was talking about 10GB switches so yes 620,670,690 is what I was looking for.

Thank you.

You could also look at the 440 G2 line if your hand off to clients is one gig POE. That line has 10 gig uplinks. It all really depends on how you plan on laying things out.. What will you doing on the layer 3 side comes to play along with redundancy options.

10GB uplinks or 10GB switches? The 220 and 440 both have 10GB uplinks (in various numbers). If you are looking for a 10GB front-panel port switch, then take a look at our 620, 670 or 690 products.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your detailed answer.

What are the options for 10GB Ethernet?
