[c-nsp] 10G capable switches

[Stephen Cobb]

Andy-

The used market on cisco 10gig fixed switches is solid, although those
2350's aren't too available and thus pricey...maybe $5k used. Consider these
two layer 3 1ru switches (both have redundant power options):
WS-C3560E-24TD-S (24 10/100/1000 and 2 X2 10gig ports) ~ $3.5k used maybe
WS-C3750E-24TD-S (same thing, but stackable) ~ $5k used

10gig isn't any cheaper in modular switches at the moment, fyi. The cool
thing about the 3750's and 3750-E's is that you can stack them (32gig
backplane if mixed in with the regular 3750's, or 64gig if all 3750-E's).
So, if you had use for some extra SFP ports, you could stack on
a WS-C3750G-12S-S for ~$2.5k and have 12 extra SFP ports. Not sure how that
would look for you, but it's something to think about.
