Hi all,

We are moving to a new location and figured may as well upgrade the 
infrastructure.
We currently have 3COM 24 port switches from the late 90's,  if I had to guess 
and its time to send them to rest.

I have been reading and trying to get a solid feel for which way to go , and as 
always there is a plethora of data out there that says "Spf+ hands down" or 
CX4, or even cat6,

Everyone seems the have "the perfect answer" and of course they all conflict. 
and I hope not to start a thread war on this list.


Let me give a breakdown of what will be in play here

Small office (< 50 users) 
PC's         all gigabit 
Phones    all megabit (VOIP)

6 servers;

Exchange
Citrix/ TS (Hyper-V)
OwnCloud (Hyper-V)
File Server
Print Server
SQL (all users connected 24x7)
2 DC's 

We are considering getting a NAS (10GB supported)

The other heavy traffic will be from video rendering and CAD, we would like use 
something like backburner to spread the rendering, or maybe build a dedicated 
rendering server (still up in the air)

all servers, switches, and possible NAS will be in the same cabinet, so 
distance is not a factor in terms of connecting to the switch, only the PC's 
will require runs greater than the 10 meters

I would like also welcome any reccomendations on switches as too


TIA,
