If your phones support PoE,
I have had huge success with Zyxel:

5GRETMM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1426296572&sr=8-3&keywords=zyxel+poe
If you want to go even cheaper, I have successfully used these as well:

Pardon, this might be off-topic. I'm reading:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_switch
For a setup of ~5 agents, would I be wrong in thinking that a generic 16
port unmanaged switch would fit the bill?
The first model to come up for me in an Amazon search is:
http://support.netgear.com/product/fs116
Is this a reasonable choice? Would I be wrong in thinking that most any
Fast Ethernet switch would be fine for Asterisk?
thanks,
Thufir

All that happens at a level totally transparent to the TCP/IP stack In a way, an Ethernet Switch is /the/ network near you, your cables are 'just' interconnects. HTH, el es> > thanks, > > Thufir > >
Remember that that zyxel 16 port switch is only 8 poe ports. If your phones are 802.3af or 802.3at, you could look at the ubiquiti line of switches.
