Moving to Gigabit Ethernet

[Craig White]

Have a client with approximately 45 workstations.

Office is wired for Cat 5

Links such as http://www.networkworld.com/news/tech/2000/1016tech.html
suggest that it may be possible to run Gigabit ethernet on the existing
wiring (perhaps I need to rewire the ends with Cat 5e or Cat 6
connectors).

Has anyone done this type of thing with success?

What type/brand/model switches did you use?

Anything I should be considering?
