I've never personally tried it, but I'm sure someone here could fill us in if this is possible or even recommended.
I am not sure why you would do this. Besides the cost of the cisco equipment, you have just bottlenecked your speed again. The 25 pair between buildings will get them 10mb minimum, and if its clean, it can go faster. Whenever I run across a situation that deviates from standard practice, I get an okay from the customer, and I note it on the invoice as well. This way, if they do come back and say something, you have a record of it.
