[c-nsp] 200 FE ports, half of those PoE

[Voll, Scott]

Cost wise you can't beat the express 500's.  but we use the 3560.
Better platform (ios) rather then web based and the E500's can't do
everything a regular switch can do.  There's been some talk on the
Cisco-Voip list about it.  The E500 is Very basic.

If you're looking for high density you will need to look at 45xx or
65xx.

Just my 2 cents

Hello,

 

our IT guys are stacking 24-ports CatalystExpress 500 in the room behind
me,
and I am wondering if there is no better solution than that?

 

We have 200 (mostly FE, some GE) ports; half of which should be PoE (for
IP
phones).

 

What would you suggest?

 

Vincent
