HP Enterprise ProCurve 5500-24G SI Managed L3 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) 1U Zwart

These Gigabit Ethernet switches deliver quad-speed performance 10/100/1000 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, as well as advanced voice-enhanced features such as Power over Ethernet (PoE), auto-voice VLAN, and Quality of Service (QoS). As a result, they are ideal for enterprise organizations seeking to build a secure, convergence-enhanced campus network. Robust IPv6 support and 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks future-proof an enterprise network against obsolescence. Resilient Ring Protection Protocol (RRPP), Smart Link, and Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) deliver 50 ms switchover and carrier-class reliability.

Quality of Service (QoS)
• Broadcast control: allows limitation of broadcast traffic rate to cut down on unwanted network broadcast traffic

Management
• Friendly port names: allow assignment of descriptive names to ports

Connectivity
• Auto-MDIX: automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100/1000 ports

Performance
• Nonblocking architecture: up to 192 Gbps nonblocking switching fabric provides wire-speed switching with up to 143 million pps throughput

Resiliency and high availability
• Separate data and control paths: keeps control separated from services and keeps service processing isolated; increases security and performance

Layer 2 switching
• 16K MAC address table: provides access to many Layer 2 devices

Layer 3 services
• Address Resolution Protocol (ARP): determines the MAC address of another IP host in the same subnet
