Hello, recently at a large branch location a Cisco 2970 gigabit switch died.
It was being used as a core switch.
I threw in a spare 3560 I had in stock. It is fast Ethernet, would like to replace with another gigabit switch.
2970 was EOL about 5 years ago.
What is a good gigabit switch we can get. Don't want to overbuy, it's a large branch but still just a branch with about 50 - 75 users.
it is the core that the access switches from the 3 floors all cross connect into.
Any thoughts?

3850 or 3650 are good gig switches
