Googer: Can you explain what you mean by a USB headset? I have owned this Model 510 for some 6 months now, and have not seen how it can interface as an USB headset, since it only has Bluetooth communications capabilities. Unless you are using a USB/Bluetooth adapter. Are you thinking...

Good buy, except it was discontinued by 3Com 9/1/2006 for a newer model. Being discontinued, you should get at least 50% off, which should bring it to under $2000. Great chassis switch the 7750, but this is a mediocre module.

Why run Cat6, when if cabling is correctly installed, Cat5 will support up to GigE throughut with no problems, (up to 100M) ? Cat6, (even Cat5E and Cat7 as some vendors call their cabling), has only been proven necessary when around severe electrical interference, such as run over flourescent...

Unfortunately, unless the hardware and firmware is developed to support Jumbo Frames, a switch will not handle the 9K size packets. Thus it will not forward the frame at all. It takes hardware buffers at the least the size of the largest packet, in Jumbo Frames case that would be 9K in size...
