I can set up a Gigabit desktop switch, plug in server and some workstations, and run them through VoIP phones generating 96Kb/s audio streams, and cause the audio streams to break down in quality - even though the pipes are considerably larger than the traffic I am trying to protect.
I suspect shifting to 10Gb/s pipes would make no difference.
Seems like a good example of needing to spend money on QoS because your network is inadequate. I suspect you might need to find a gigabit switch that doesn't have "desktop" in its name :-) Joe
