[c-nsp] Cisco 4948's

[Adam Crosby]

Not sure how high on the scale 3Com rates vs. Dlink, 
but they make a 24-SFP +2GBIC 2RU switch:

Stackable too...

Scarey ain't it. :)

Cisco has 48-port SFP blades for 6509/sup720, but needs to make a 1.5U

standalone version.

Common complaint. Even outside of metro applications, everyone wants a

good 24/48 port SFP w/10GE uplink, or even a 16 port GBIC switch (yes 
GBICs are still alive and well) w/port channeling and some basic jumbo

frame capabilities, for gige aggregation.
