Cheap Cisco Switch with Stacking capability and 48 ports

[Vinayaka Raman]

Friends,

We are currently using 3750 ver 2,  48 port cisco switch. 

But we need to know what is the cheapest model available in the market.

Cisco products only. It is to save some cost for less critical sites.

Regards,

Vinayak.

Go to Cisco Refurbished and you'll get some discounted products.

Cheapest model could be the 2960S/X/SR.

L2 or L3?  What kind of 48 ports?  (e.g. 10/100, 10/100,1000, fiber)  Uplinks?  How many need to be supported in a stack?

As Leo noted, for L2, there's the stackable 2960 models.

There's also the small business 500 series of (L2) stackables.

For L3, unsure there's anything current that would be as price attractive as the 3750v2 models.

2960 S and X stack but are only L2. The 2960 XR will do Lan lite.
