E3800 modules and accessories-need advice

[Usaia Tawakevou]

Hi,

Im planning to get two of these and stack it up for my inter-vlan router, core routing (OSPF), fiber connectivity to the other server room and fiber connectivity to my Cisco 3750(hosting servers and iSCISI)

Just need information on modules needed i.e. stack, fiber modules, stack cables

Any advice will be really appreciated. Am attaching herewith a diagram of my planned setup

The online configurator tool is also really useful.

Thanks Richard. I did try out that online configurator. Excellent. Anyway, I notice 2 more costing added automatically. Support and stackable legacy startup. Do I really need this two options ? I have already ask pricing from differnet vendors without these two options. Am attaching herewith the my result for 2 x 48 ports switch

Let me know

Just following up on my question about the two options. Do I really need it ?

[Richard Litchfield]

The service options are not mandatory, and the switches have a lifetime warranty. The install service means just that (ie install + configure onsite); the second option is for uplifted support. There are a range to choose from if it suits the business (eg 24x7 4hr response, or business hours 4hr response).

Additional service options can provide additional support and peace-of-mind deopending on the location/application/business/budget/etc.
