Fixed Chassis is always cheaper and the specs on the 3750X switches is very good.

Do the new 3750-X support Enhanced POE for the new devices? That was a key feature that the 4500's supported. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Di Bias, Steve Sent: Wednesday, July 07, 2010 3:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OSL | CCIE_RS] OT: Cisco Catalyst 3750-X series?? Hey everyone, I was considering replacing some of our 3750 stacks with 4506-E's but our Cisco rep suggested we take a look at the *new* 3750-X series instead. I'm really interested in the new StackPower capabilities which gives you power redundancy within the stack. Also the power supplies are modular with two slots on each chassis. The uplink modules are also modular allowing for 2 10gbE or 4 10GbE uplink ports. Has anyone seen these things in action yet? Any recommendations as to staying with the 3750-X series or moving to a single 4506 chassis for IDF's that have 3 or more switches in the stack? Thanks in advance!
