I work in a organization where the network infruastructure is very old. Now managenment wants to deploy a new network with new cabling and all. At present network is centerlized meaning all the switches and hubs are installed in one location and cables are running to different departments. They want to distributed network meaning every department should have their own switch.Now they are saying that buy a swtich which is compatible with fiber optic. And they want to connect their database server with swtich thru fiber link. Since all the clients exists in different departments uses database(oracle). Now my only concern is that is it good idea to deploy whole network with normal cables RJ 45 cat6 and connection between switches and server will be of fiber optic.???
Suggestions is this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
