Re: NVX switch recommendations #nvx


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

It depends on how many of each you¡¯re working with.

?

I¡¯d start looking at the Catalyst 9500 series and it¡¯s real easy to do up to 48 copper ports and 8 fiber (using a C9500-NM-8X/C9300-NM-8M network module) in a single switch. If you need more than 8 fiber you could either go with a SFP only switch like the C9500-40X and populate the copper ports with GLC-T SFP transceivers (expensive and clunky, IMO) or stack a C9500-40X (40 SFP/SFP+) or -16X (16 SFP/SFP+) with a C9500-48Y4C (48 1/10/25G ports with 4 100G ports)

?

Since the 9500 doesn¡¯t have a dedicated stack port/technology and uses stackwise virtual you¡¯d need to make sure you have enough interfaces with enough bandwidth available to create a virtual stack ¨C this of course depends on the number of encoders on each switch.

Subject: [crestron] NVX switch recommendations #nvx

?

I do not know if this has be asked before. I am doing a commercial project and I was looking to use a mix of Fiber and copper connections for NVX. Does any one have a recommendation for a single switch from?extreme networks or cisco that could do both? Or do I need two switches and link them together?

Thanks
