Network gear for WSUCon III
Attached is the PostScript of the order we will be placing with OfficeDepot for our networking gear. This order includes:
- 1 D-Link DGS-1005D 5-Port Gigabit Switch
- 3 Linksys EtherFast EZXS16W 16-Port Workgroup Switch
- 2 D-Link DSS-16+ Express EtherNetwork 16-Port 10/100Mpbs Switch
- $451.44
The gigabit is for the 'backbone' that all of our switches should be connecting to (at most 4, with one port connecting to the server). The 3 Linksys and 2 D-Link are for filler if my 16-port and ribo's 24-port are not enough (the reason I'm getting a mix of Linksys and D-Link is that Office Depot doesn't have 5 of either).
I also have a quote for:
- 1 D-Link DGS-1005D 5-Port Gigabit Switch
- 2 Linksys EtherFast EZXS16W 16-Port Workgroup Switch
- 2 D-Link DSS-16+ Express EtherNetwork 16-Port 10/100Mpbs Switch
- $367.45
And another without the gigabit switch:
- 3 Linksys EtherFast EZXS16W 16-Port Workgroup Switch
- 2 D-Link DSS-16+ Express EtherNetwork 16-Port 10/100Mpbs Switch
- $398.95
I have the 3 quotes so we can decide what we want, with the last quote ($398.95) being the one that Ben, Haven, Dave, and I originally agreed upon (then I found that the D-Link 5-port gigabit is only $50 ;)).

Hope you get this early enough to help
Here's what I have: (Kyle)
* HP Advancestack Switch 224T (HP J3177A) - 24-port
* HP Advancestack Switching Hub-24R (HP J3202A) - 24-port
* HP Advancestack Hub-24 (HPJ2601A) - 24-port
* HP Advancestack Hub-12 (HPJ2600A) - 12-port
* Asante Netstacker [Base Hub] - 24-port
* Synoptics LattisNet (Model 2800) 10 Base-T Concentrator - 12-port
Not all guaranteed to work (I'd say 2-4 probably work), and they're all 10 Base-T, but it should do most of what you want, and should save you a lot. You'll still probably need some sort of router, but I'm sure you've got all that covered.
Oh, I also have a 10-port AT&T Hub that I'm sure works - it's my 'bludgeoning' hub. WSU Gamers also has some crossover cables if you need to borrow 'em - though I'll have to dig those up.
If you need to know more, drop by wsugamers.com and let me know, or give me a call (I pulled everything out of my closet except for power cables, so it shouldn't be too tough to show you 'em). I'll probably be away from the computer most of the night (Oblivion calls me), but I'll do what I can to get right back to you if you need to know something.
