I am looking to buy a very basic Juniper managed network switch. Where can I find one at a reasonable price? I'm thinking of something like the EX2200-C in a SOHO setting.
I know zero about Juniper products, but did buy the Dummies book that is available. Haven't read it yet.
I am also wondering if a Cisco SG-300-10 switch would be able to successfully and transparently pass data to and from a Juniper switch such that the users have no trouble accessing their data? In other words, does buying a specific network switch lock you into that brand or can they all talk to each other, more or less?
I would suggest CDW or Ingram Micro. Both sites make you register but the
selection is outstanding for the higher end products

Agree with places to purchase as for your other question you are not locked
in you can mix and match brands some people choose one over the other
reasons.

an SG-300-10 is not a bad piece of kit. used to be the linksys srw-2008 series..
AFIK there is no reason why a juniper product wouldnt be able to talk to another switch by sheer dint of the brand.
Keep in mind here since the juniper piece you are looking at is managed, its possible to set up management that would prohibit one switch talking to the other.
by default in the SG-300 most if not all of the management is turned off. not sure if its the same for the Juniper piece.
ive heard great things about juniper gear, but, for most of my applications including using point to point single mode & mutimode fiber i go for the SG-300 as its price/performance ratio is pretty good in my book.
