Please log in for more thread options we have to buy a switch with 3 x 1000base-sx links and 1 x 1000base-T link. This is for the center of a star topology network. What is a good brand which doesn't cost too much? We expect the three fibre links to be quite near to their maximum throughput at least in some hours of the day because there are a hundred of PCs and some servers attached to the optical ends, overall, and one PC uploads 50GB of data to a file server each day, and many other PCs use a windows domain from a file server, and all this stuff passes through this "optical" switch in the center of the network. The switch should be capable of handling that, with good reliability, but possibly not too expensive. I have been suggested the D-Link DGS-3024 for the other 3 extremities of the network, but for the center of the star that would mean to add 3 optical modules and there would be 23 unused copper ports out of 24. That might be unoptimal... Thanks | ||||||||||
