The 5000 that I ordered has 3ea 20 port 10/100 cards in it. Everything works great except autosensing of duplex mode. The duplex mode defaults to half duplex, and has to be manually set to full duplex - on the workstations that can handle full duplex.

I called and inquired about this, and the tech support people said they had new (some standards compliant number) ASICs coming out. I did not write down the standards number that he mentioned.

Other than that, the switch works great! I have about 50 ports in use with a bunch at 100MBs Full Duplex, and the Servers are just humming. I have not yet tried multiple NICs in a server. My environment does not require that type of bandwidth...
