WTB: 24 port gigabit switch Options

[neon]

hey guys.

After a second hand 24/48 port rackmount gigabit switch. Preferably managed - basic management enough to etherchannel or load ballance ports.

$500 max, thanks.

Cheers

Fiber isn't the next step up, it's just another medium that can deliver the same speeds, just in most circumstances over longer distances.

However, They probably moved to something with 10GB backbones, or some kind of blade switching unit for a faster back plane.... As a wild stab.

blade switching unit ...a wild stab.

Sounds terrifying!
