Module description

HP Networking Box Switches are focused on enterprise access and aggregation application or datacenter application and are suitable for a range of uses: at the edge of a network, connecting server clusters in a data center, in an enterprise LAN core, and in large-scale industrial networks and campus networks. The series includes fixed-port L2/L2+ managed Ethernet switch appliances, fixed-port L3 managed Ethernet switch appliances, and modular Ethernet switches. Each device is based on the Comware 5.2 platform.
