RE: Advice on cheap data cabinets and rackmount switches....

["christopher purves" <CHRIS_PURVES@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,


http://www.cablenet.org.uk/catalog/flatpack.htm

for reasonably prices desktop racks or ebay has loads.

as for a switch if you only need 10/100 you can get 24 way on ebay for £30

then you could buy a cheap 8 way gigabit also.

24 way gigabit are a little more expensive - think I just paid around £180
for an SMC managed switch 24 x 1000/100/10  (with QOS as I want to put VOIP
through it).
