Yeah, I should have mentioned the 1G need to be SFP/Fiber.

The new 4948E comes with 4x 10G and 48x 1G. Its pretty cheap (fits between 4900M and 3560)

It handled pretty much everything we threw  at it during testing :)

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a recommendation for a switch to use for L2 transport between two locations.

Essentially I will have 4-5 1G ports and they will be carried over a 10G connection using VLANs.

My main problem is that in the future I will need more 10G ports and most of the 'fixed configuration' switches only come with 2x 10G ports.

So far I am looking at the 4900M and the WS-C3560E-12D-S.

Does have any recommendations for something I am overlooking?

thanks,
-Drew
