My favorite to date has been the Cisco 2511 (used Annex, Lucington PortMaster, and PowerSentry)..
As I've already said I'm a fan of the 2621 but for people not familiar with cisco gear the 2621 is a modular box which takes standard cisco modules. The base chassis has 2*100bT ports whereas the 2511 has 1*10bT. In our environment to preserve our sanity we force everything to 100bT-FD which meants the 2511 is no good. In my mind the 2621 is well worth the extra cost and a cisco box with 2FE ports is extremely useful for other things as well.
