We are a start-up cloud computing company and we have every reason to say how HEAVY the task of network construction is! Fortunately, we found FS. We feel much satisfied with their services for helping us saving so much time. So we’d like to share our experience with this company, and hopefully it can help more people also with troubles in network construction.
Great place for ONE-STOP network solutions. We have bought two N series switches with 40G ports from FS, as well as some optical modules and fiber cables. Fantastic devices. Despite these, they also provide many other network equipment and accessories. And I also find some cabling tools here. More than enough for our needs. Really convenient. Because we don’t need to spend additional time looking for products from different vendors.
Straightforward shopping process with a registered account. My sales rep. at FS told us that we can get some special discounts by registering a business account. This is a good news for a startup, as we have a tight budget right now. So we registered immediately. Very simple and smooth operation. We can place the orders directly without asking the customer service for help. (We have successfully bought two switches last month by this means).
Abundant product info provided. In this way we can decide which products meet our demands by ourselves. We were tired of asking sales rep. all kinds of questions when purchasing elsewhere. As for me, I learned what I want to know about S5850-24T16S switch just directly from the product description on the web page, the datasheet and related documents. AWESOME!
Definitely we will continue to go with FS team. Much convenience and high reliability! We have never encountered any difficulties or problems with the equipment bought from them, also for this S5850-24T16S switch. Only for one order, we found that one power cord was missing in the switch package. And the staff immediately resent it to me. It's all small stuff...
Thanks again!

Want to say THANK YOU as the journey is full of surprises. Let me start with what we have experienced. Our hospital is planning to expand the network where 20 Cisco catalyst 3750-E series switches directly connecting to the medical equipment go towards another Cisco catalyst 3750 at the aggregation layer. However, we do not want the same switch as it is end of sale for one thing and for another, you can tell that the old switches are all equipped with Ethernet ports. The structure is out-of-date as there is now a heat of fiber connection featuring cost-efficiency, great bandwidth and security.

Happened to come across the Ads of FS switches online, their shopping website is intuitive with product specification and the stock visible. We decided to buy 8 S3900-48T4S switches and 2 S58-32S. Our initial plan was to put the 8 switches at the access layer and 2 S58 at the aggregation layer, then together with the previous cisco switches, the distribution switches will all go up towards the core switch. BUT!!! Here comes the first surprise. The technical staff said that things could be easier than we thought. Just replace the four switches at the aggregation layer with two S5850-24T16S. Each has 24 10/100/1000BASE-T ports and 16 10Gb SFP+ ports. Chances are few that the two kinds of port can work at the same time, since the combo ports on other switches can only be performed in one way. Seemed to get a treasure. According to the suggestion, we also added some optic modules, cables, and the cable management tools. Amazing delivery speed, and only three days, these goods appeared right in front of our door. Worth mentioning that, right out of the box you can tell that these switches are sturdy, made of metal (likely aluminum) case that offers better protection for the electronics inside, better shielding against interference and makes the switch look and feel more robust. They do come with an excellent pair of rack ears to match the the switches themselves.

The sales person kindly reminded us of the MLAG to increase the redundancy of both the connection and the equipment. Finished these operations without fiddling with the previous access switches. I love these devices and will continue to grow my network using them. I will recommend the switch (and FS one-stop solution) to anyone looking for mixing structures like we did.

Easy and quick transaction. The product arrived exactly as described and much quicker than I expected.

FS products have been extremely reliable for me since I discovered them about a year ago. The S5850-24T16S is no exception, it's easy to setup and configure to your needs. The switch comes with a decent WebGUI that makes it much easier to setup. I may buy a second one soon.
