Just watch out for symmetry in your design that would create a loop and
subsequent broadcast storms.  Since only one of your switches is Cisco, I
don't know if spanning tree protocol will help you here.  I don't know too
much about your 3COM however.  Are you asking for more physical
connectivity?  Sorry if my response is useless to you.
