[cisco-voip] Data Traffic in VLAN1

Ditto.  Depends if you're concerned about 'proper design' or just
functionality.

Either way, you REALLY should have voice and data on separate subnets unless
you just CAN'T do it.  QoS is much easier.

For 50 users, you can leave them on VLAN 1, you just shouldn't.  technically
if you had 1000 users you could leave them on VLAN 1... Again, you just
shouldn't.

Your question isn't clear. If you are asking if you should split voice
and data onto their own subnets, for 50 phones/users, the answer is
yes. You need QoS for that many phones. If you asking whether or not
to use vlan1 for data, as a best practice, NEVER use vlan1 for
ANYTHING, for security reasons.
