Hi,
I would build my own x86 based Mikrotik boxes with as many GigE ports as
you need (or use multiple boxes). You can build a much more powerful
system for the same or less money than an RB1100.
Even the ATOM processor based Supermicro boards have a LOT more
horsepower, and some come with two GigE ports right on the board.

We have an office complex where we have wired up 15 offices. Typically,
we put in as many RB493s tied together as it takes, with each available
port doing NAT/DHCP on a separate network.
In this case, we have fiber to the building, and we have gigabit access
to Radiological Images, where a series of images can be quite large.
So, having gigabit to each customer unit is required to "do it right".
Obviously, I want something that can handle some pretty good "bursty"
traffic. I would guess that only one or two units would actually be
doing the big transfers at one time, but I want them to be super-fast...
kinda get in, get the data, get done..
My considerations thus far have been a RB1100.
Is there a better/faster/cheaper way to do this?
