home-office

Hi

I currently working on my new home office and I want to take that occasion to wire some parts of my house with cat6 Ethernet. To make all this work, I'm looking for a gigabit switch with at least 16 ports (but I would prefer 24 to have some room to grow) that is reliable and quiet. I've about 250$ to put on that.

The options I'm looking for now are - DLink 1024D - Netgear JGS524

Would you recommend (or not) one of these switches ? Have you some other suggestions ?

Thanks
