This replaced a 15 year old 10/100 switch that our server rack had long since outgrown. The rack mounting bracket fit perfectly into our rack and we swapped out all the network cables with only a few seconds of downtime. Everything was able to auto-negotiate gigabit speeds with no problem at all.

Quality construction gives a solid feel and the weight of the metal case means that, even if you are using cat6 cables with a thick spline, the switch will never fail to sit flush on the the supporting surface (can be an issue with plasticy cheap switches).
