Gimme a break. Out of 4648694 output packets you see as many as 2661459
collisions? That's more than 50%, i.e. for about every second packet
that you are sending you get a collision! You very clearly have a
collision problem.

I bet that the switch is at full-duplex while you're at half. Try
changing the mediaopt setting of your NIC.
