24 Port RJ-45 GigE Simple Switch.
Don't need managed capabilities. Just a simple switch to plug workstations into.


MacConnection lists the Asante switch at $569.95
All the other ones I've finding that give me 24 GigE ports are way more expensive.

CDW's "managed" switches start at $350 for 24 ports...

I put "Managed" in quotes, since it is basic management (no SNMP, no CLI, etc.).


and $290 for 24 ports unmanaged:

FWIW, I just wrote a summary for Mac Managers about gig switches, though I was talking about a backbone for a small network, so much of the info there is probably not of interest to you for this application:

Enjoy.
