[BBLISA] Insight on replacing Cisco 4006

We're swapping out our 4006's with 4510's. They use the same linecards. 
Of the 8 usable slots, 5 can do 24gig per slot(using the new "enhanced" lincards), and the others are the old 6gig slots. 
We put sup6's in, which have 2 ports on them that can do either 4 1gig fiber connections or 2 10gig fiber connections. They've been working pretty well for us. We use them for access layer switches on each floor. 

We've gone with Focus Technologies in NH for a lot of our stuff as they have been getting us a really good price on the cisco gear.

Hello BBLISA, 
Looking for insight and / or good Cisco Partner to determine replacement for aging Cisco 4006 switch. 

< board 1> Current needs are four duplex fiber circuit and four trunk twisted pair connections 
< board 2) 48 port twisted pair

Would like to upgrade speed on fiber circuit <s> and core speed to 10 G. 


Thanks in advance,
