Cisco 4900 & 6500 Switches

[Matt]

OK the 6500 series is end of life/support in 2012, but does anyone know for sure what is happening with the 6500-E series and SUP720. Are they going to be around as a competitive alternative to Nexus, which is priced way over the top whether you look at 7000 or 5000 series kit. £50K for a 32 port 10GE blade and £1K per SFP!! If the hardware was going to be around for more than 7 to 10 years, which is Cisco's normal policy then I can see the justification

I am seriously looking at other vendors now for the new data centre equipment as well as the 4900 series kit, which if anyone has experience of I would value.

Thanks

You might want to look at the Avaya VSP9000, Juniper EX8200 or Brocade NetIron MLX.

I know a number of large organizations that have each chosen one of the above vendors and have been very happy to-date with their decision and purchase.

Cheers!
