[QUOTE="Jeff Stevens, post: 49319, member: 236"] Re: Cobranet Are these managed or unmanaged switches and is there going to be any data traffic of any kind on any of them? Also, do they have auto crossover (called auto-MDIX)? If not, the cables linking the switches together will have to be crossover type cables. Right now, the only things I can think of are to use high-grade cable for your uplinks with Ethercons and a break out/in panel in each rack, since switches don't support that connector natively. I would prefer cat-6, since it will provide for more bandwidth in the future and little more cost, but at minimum I would recommend cat-5e. ~Jeff [/QUOTE]
