What type of network gigabit switch
We are a small office and currently have a Dell Power Connect 2124 24 port switch. I would like to upgrade to a 48 port switched seif managed.. Would the Dell PC 2748 suit our needs? Or can I use what we have and only route the PCs and laptops to the new giga switch?
