A 3Com 3200 series switch will support bandwidth limiting per port to
the 1 Mbps level (I might sell you mine if you are interested).

The business line of Linksys switches provides rate limiting down to the
kpbs level:

The 3Com is Fast Ethernet and goes for about $350 and $700 for 26-port
or 50-port versions respectively. Linksys switches will go for about
the same prices for the gigabit versions, but you might not have any
good reason for going gigabit, and the Fast Ethernet versions will be
$100 to $200 less.
There are of course a host of other solutions with better granularity,
but most managed switches these days provide the ability to shape
bandwidth per port.

Hi, all-
I'll be providing VOIP and Internet service to five to ten other
tenants in the building I will be moving into in a couple of months.
I'm looking for a way to provide limited bandwidth to each port,
preferably with some form of QOS or priority handling for the VOIP
services.
Does anybody know of an inexpensive way to provide this? These are one
to three person companies for the most part, and big-bucks solutions
are not in the picture.
